Conclusion of Conduction and Breakdown Commercial Liquids
- All the theories discussed above do not consider the dependence of breakdown system on the pap length. They all try to account for the maximum obtainable breakdown strength only. However, experimental evidence showed that he breakdown strength of a liquid depends on the gap length given by
VG = A dn …. (Power low equation)
Where,
d = Gap length
A = Constant and
n = constant always less than 1.
- The breakdown voltage also depends on the nature of the voltage the mode in which the voltage is applied and the time of application. The above relationship is of practical importance and the electrical stress of a given oil used in design is obtained from this.
