Abstract :
A summary is presented of the work completed on the High Voltage Design Guide developed for the US Air Force Materials Lab. The design guide presents information on fields, materials and processes, component selection, packaging, manufacturing and testing. Formulas and empirical equations are shown for typical high-voltage electrode configurations found in electrical equipment. A designer using these empirical formulas and the field plotting methods shown can locate maximum field stresses within electrical insulation systems. Then the proper dielectrics can be selected for the development of high-quality, long-life power supplies
