Study on design technique of high voltage insulators in contaminated environment using finite element method.

The paper describes a new technique for the shape design of a bell-type porcelain locke insulator in contaminated environment. Early studies on the contamination performance of insulators indicated the need for an improvable shape to provide adequate insulation strength at normal operating voltages. In this paper, under lightly and heavily contaminated site severity, the variation of voltage distribution to leakage path at insulator surfaces analyzed by the complex admittance matrix using finite element method. By this results, the improvement of shape of insulators could be approached to the available condition in contaminated environments. In applicating to compare a standard disc type with a fog disc type insulator, this design technique is valid.
