Abstract :
Advanced composite electrical structures, offer excellent strength, heat, and electrical properties. The author reviews their electrical performance and manufacturing advantages and reports on new designs in high-performance motors and transformers incorporating them. The applications for slot liners and coil forms outlined underscore the potential of composites for cutting costs, scaling down size, and improving the performance of various types of electrical equipment
