UNIT I OVER VOLTAGES IN ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMS 9
Causes of over voltages and its effects on power system – Lightning, switching surges and temporary
overvoltages, Corona and its effects – Reflection and Refraction of Travelling waves- Protection
against overvoltages.

UNIT II DIELECTRIC BREAKDOWN 9
Gaseous breakdown in uniform and non-uniform fields – Corona discharges – Vacuum breakdown –
Conduction and breakdown in pure and commercial liquids, Maintenance of oil Quality – Breakdown
mechanisms in solid and composite dielectrics.

UNIT III GENERATION OF HIGH VOLTAGES AND HIGH CURRENTS 9
Generation of High DC, AC, impulse voltages and currents - Triggering and control of impulse
generators.

UNIT IV MEASUREMENT OF HIGH VOLTAGES AND HIGH CURRENTS 9
High Resistance with series ammeter – Dividers, Resistance, Capacitance and Mixed dividers - Peak
Voltmeter, Generating Voltmeters - Capacitance Voltage Transformers, Electrostatic Voltmeters –
Sphere Gaps - High current shunts- Digital techniques in high voltage measurement.

UNIT V HIGH VOLTAGE TESTING & INSULATION COORDINATION 9
High voltage testing of electrical power apparatus as per International and Indian standards – Power
frequency, impulse voltage and DC testing of Insulators, circuit breakers, bushing, isolators and
transformers- Insulation Coordination.
