Monitoring insulator contamination level under dry condition with a microwave reflectometer [PDF]
Build-up of surface contamination on high voltage insulators can lead to an increase in leakage current and partial discharge, which may eventually develop into flashover.

Enhanced High-Voltage Power Line Insulator and Contamination Classification using Score-Level Fusion [PDF]
High-voltage (HV) power line insulators are critical for grid reliability, but their performance degrades due to contamination (e.g., salt, soot, excrement). Traditional visual inspection methods are subjective, risky, and time-consuming.

High voltage insulator contamination level online monitoring with conventional and novel methods
Conventional online monitoring techniques used for monitoring the levels of contamination on high voltage insulators, such as leakage current and partial discharge, are not effective in dry conditions since they require the surface of the insulator to be
