Abstract

Pertains to the determination of the power frequency withstand characteristics of ceramic and glass insulators to be used outdoors and exposed to polluted atmospheres, on a.c. systems with the highest voltage of the system greater than 1000 V.

Scope

This International Standard is applicable for the determination of the power frequencywithstand characteristics of ceramic and glass insulators to be used outdoors and exposed topolluted atmospheres, on a.c. systems with the highest voltage of the system greater than1 000 V.
