Content, Learning Outcome and Preconditions

Content

Insulation capacity and statistical techniques, electrical conductivity and dielectric properties of insulating materials, testing of insulating materials, anorganic and organic insulating materials, high voltage insulators, energy cables, long-term performance of insulations (ageing)

Learning Outcome

At the end of the module students are able to understand the statistical techniques to deal with the insulating capacity, the mechanisms of electrical conductivity and polarisation of insulating materials, the fundamentals of test techniques for insulating materials as well as the basic properties of insulating materials including their aging performance. Further, they are able to apply this understanding to the design and the expected properties of high voltage insulations (e.g. insulators and cables).
