HIGH VOLTAGE BREAKDOWN STUDY

Abstract

The pilot experiment was continued and treatments 13 through 29 were completed. The procedures previously developed were used to obtain the significant breakdown parameters of unconditioned and conditioned gaps in the range 0.5 to 3.0 cm. Preliminary analyses both statistical and physical were carried out, some trends were observed and tentative conclusions were drawn as to the mechanism causing breakdown. Finally the 300 kv system was maintained in a fully operational state.
