High voltage techniques course: a cooperative effort between Georgia Tech and Georgia Power

A cooperative effort between the School of Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and the Research Center of the Georgia Power Company to establish a graduate-level course in high-voltage techniques is reported. The course contains a lecture segment and a strong experimental segment that contributes to its success. This cooperative effort enables the student to put his or her theoretical knowledge to practice in an industrial laboratory. The syllabus is outlined and experimental sessions offered during the course are described. >
