Performance of High Voltage Protective Air Gaps in Desert Environment
Rod-rod and multiple rod gaps are used for overvoltage protection of various power system apparatus. These are mostly located outdoors and are subjected to dust and sand particulate contamination in desert lands. This paper discusses the influence of these pollutants on the breakdown voltage and bre...
