Abstract
- In this paper, the degradation processes in stator-bar groundwall insulation that is subjected to steep-front voltage pulses, at different temperatures, are studied. The test conditions include pulse voltage amplitudes up to 6 kVp and pulse switching frequencies up to 3 kHz in ambient temperatures of 23°C, 120 °C, and 155 ° C. During the aging process, the surface temperature is monitored with an infrared camera to determine the regions with highest temperatures and the partial discharge (PD) activity. The visual examination of failed bars confirmed that the groundwall insulation in these regions is degraded. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
