Sparkover Characteristics of Large Gap Spaces and Long Insulation Springs

Results of tests with impulse voltages and long tail surges are described for large gap spaces and long insulator strings. For these tests, the 10,000-kv 750-kilojoule outdoor surge generator installed in Shiobara Laboratory was used.
