Advanced Insulation Materials for High Voltage Applications Course

Training Outlines

Introduction

This course examines the behaviour and engineering application of insulation used in high-voltage equipment. Participants connect dielectric theory and electric-field stress with material selection, environmental ageing, insulation coordination, laboratory testing, condition assessment and lifecycle decisions.

Objectives

Explain dielectric polarisation, loss, discharge and breakdown mechanisms.
Compare gaseous, liquid, solid and composite insulation systems.
Assess electric-field stress, interfaces, clearances and creepage distances.
Apply insulation-coordination principles to equipment and networks.
Evaluate electrical, thermal, mechanical and environmental ageing.
Interpret dielectric, partial-discharge and condition-monitoring tests.
Select insulation materials for specific high-voltage applications.
Develop quality, maintenance and lifecycle strategies for insulation assets.
