Abstract :
Transient overvoltages are normal. Insulation must withstand not only the functional voltage, but also the transient overvoltages. A scheme called “insulation coordination” has been instituted by the International Electrical Commission to promulgate and standardize on coordinating the transient overvoltage suppression with insulation electric strength. This paper addresses the insulation requirements of the scheme.
