Effect of Enviromental Moisture and Pollution on Visual Corona Voltage.(Dept.E)

The paper presents experimental investigations to study the effect of enviromental moisture and pollution on visual corona voltage for parallel wires different diameters at various distances from each other. It has been found experimentally that wet have a reduction voltage. empirical equation given by Peek such is modified with aid obtained results. proposed modification takes into consideration formed between conductors. results using this match thobe both solid stranded maximum percentage error attained applying does not exceed ± 8% values. Discussion nodes in atmospheric air are also included explained according modern concepts phenomenon.
