Displacement Current and Surface Flashover [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
High-voltage vacuum insulator failure is generally due to surface flashover rather than insulator bulk breakdown. Vacuum surface flashover is widely believed to be initiated by a secondary electron emission avalanche along the vacuum-insulator interface.

External Insulation Performance under DC Voltages of Polluted Post Insulators for Power Stations in Rainy Weather: A Brief Review and Recent Progress

open access: yesEnergies
The discharge and flashover phenomenon of post insulators in rainy weather has not been given sufficient consideration; however, with the construction of ultra-high voltage power grids, the performance of the external insulation and the ability to ...

AC Flashover Performance of 10 kV Rod-Plane Air-Gapped Arresters under Rain Conditions

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
According to operational experience of power systems, the outdoor insulation strength can be reduced due to the effect of rain. Till now, little work has been done to investigate the flashover performance of air gapped arresters under rain conditions ...

DC Flashover Dynamic Model of Post Insulator under Non-Uniform Pollution between Windward and Leeward Sides

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
Experience shows that under unidirectional wind or certain terrain, the surface of post insulators is non-uniformly polluted between windward and leeward sides, which affects the flashover characteristics.

Fire Testing and Hazard Assessment for Flame Retardant Polymer Composites

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Flame retardant polymer composites are now being evaluated with more than pass or fail flammability tests. Heat release, smoke, toxicity, and system‐level behavior are receiving more attention, and multi‐scale methods are being used to describe fire hazard under more realistic conditions.

Enhancing flashover strength along oil/pressboard interface using nanofluids

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2020
One of the weakest paths for electrical discharge in power transformers is oil/pressboard interface. So, in this study it is aimed to enhance the flashover resistance of such interface through using the concept of nanofluids.

Atmospheric-pressure plasma jet deposition of bumpy coating improves polypropylene surface flashover performance in vacuum

open access: yes, 2020
Polypropylene (PP) with low leakage current and high mechanical strength is a promising candidate for recyclable vacuum insulation applications, but its surface flashover voltage is low. Advantageously to widely used technologies such as fluorination and

Predicting Flashover Occurrence using Surrogate Temperature Data

open access: yes, 2021
Fire fighter fatalities and injuries in the U.S. remain too high and fire fighting too hazardous. Until now, fire fighters rely only on their experience to avoid life-threatening fire events, such as flashover.

Polyaniline as a dual flame retardant and electrostatic dissipative additive in polyethylene nanocomposites

open access: yesJournal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, Volume 31, Issue 2, Page 339-355, March 2025.
Effecft of co‐doping polyaniline with phosphoric acid and phytic acid on the heat release rate of polyethylene. Abstract Polyolefins, such as polyethylene (PE), are highly flammable and electrically insulative, limiting their applicability. The study explored the flame‐retardancy and electrical conductivity of PE/polyaniline (PE/PANI) nanocomposites ...
