  • Abstract
    Composite insulators are considered mature products and a broad range of insulator types is nowadays available, including line insulators, hollow-core insulators and apparatus insulators, for applications ranging from distribution voltages to the highest transmission voltages. This development has created a need to elaborate diagnostic methods and tools for determining the quality of composite insulators. A review on recognized insulator faults and methods for their detection is provided.
