Considering the effect of angle on polymer insulator performance under wet condition

This paper reviews a study of the inclination angle of an insulator due to mechanical forces imposed by overhead conductors. The angle theoretically shortens the effective leakage path and flashover distance of the insulator, thus change the electrical performance of the insulator. To take it into c...
