Electrical Properties of Outdoor Insulator with the Difference of Contaminated Condition

오손조건에 따른 옥외절연물의 전기적 특성

This paper present the result of the investigation, electric properties of outdoor insulators with the difference of contaminated condition. In general, the humidity and the amount of soluble salts such as NaCl, MgCl$_2$are the most dominant factor. A mini-fog chamber with transparent acryl and the standard contamination solution with kaoline was used. The kaoline was applied with sprayer to get the specific ESDD and NSDD value, then the specimen was dried and installed horizontally. And to measure the leakage current and the ambient condition, such as relative humidity and temperature, a DAS system was developed with LabView. From the result, we could know the influence of contaminated condition. Contaminated area and pattern has a close relationship with the electrical properties of outdoor insulator.
