UNIT II DIELECTRIC BREAKDOWN
Properties of Dielectric materials – Gaseous breakdown in uniform and non-uniform fields – Corona discharges – Vacum breakdown – Conduction and breakdown in pure and commercial liquids, Maintenance of oil Quality – Breakdown mechanisms in solid and
composite dielectrics- Aplications of insulating materials in electrical equipments.
UNIT III GENERATION OF HIGH VOLTAGES AND HIGH CURRENTS
Generation of High DC voltage: Rectifers, voltage multipliers, vandigraf generator: generation of high impulse voltage: single and multistage Marx circuits – generation of high AC voltages: cascaded transformers, resonant transformer and tesla coil- generation of
switching surges – generation of impulse curents – Trigering and control of impulse generators.
