City Research Online - Statistical analysis of partial discharges from electrical trees grown in a flexible epoxy resin Electrical treeing ... a long - term degradation mechanism in polymeric insulationcan leadto electrical failure of HV insulation systems
Moisturecan causeinsulation systems to fail
Vapor barriers can tear or be cutcausinginsulation systems to fail
high electric fields in power system componentsmay causefailure of the insulation systems
the resulting power dissipation ... high enoughto causeHV insulation failure
Especially , when the partial discharge occurs due to the aging of mechanism , the magnitude thereof will be very highresultsin insulation failures of the system
These over voltagescan causefailure of the insulation system
Large displacements ... likelyto causefailure in the isolation system
the screw heads to corrode and fall offmay leadto the failure of the insulation system
