Abstract :
Very fast transient overvoltages (VFTO) generated during disconnecters operation in GIS might cause insulation failure inside or outside GIS. Hence, the breakdown characteristics of GIS stressed by VFTO were studied, and the photoelectric measurements were carried out to investigate the discharge behavior stressed by VFTO or LI. The results show that the space charge accumulation produced by corona discharge of the metallic particle on the spacer is the main reason that causes the insulation failure of GIS
