Abstract :
Motor insulation systems using filled materials to enhance their performance, reliability, and efficiency are reviewed. The authors describe how corona-resistant fillers can improve the performance of insulation systems that are applied to motors on variable speed drives. Some of the development work on these systems is also outlined
