Abstract

Abstract A high voltage, insulated conductor for electrical equipment such as dynamoelectric machines where non-uniform electric stresses occur. The insulation has inserts of a material of high dielectric constant incorporated in the insulation in regions of maximum stress to change the stress distribution in a manner to reduce the maximum stress.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 122 words
Electrical apparatus with a high voltage electrical conductor insulated to provide reduced electrical stress and comprising: a first conductive member; a second conductive member spaced from said first member; said first and second members being substantially coextensive for a distance to a location at which said first member ends and said second member extends therefrom; insulation on said second member, said insulation comprising a plurality of layers of resin bonded insulating tape of a first dielectric constant and an insert of material of a second dielectric constant, substantially higher than said first dielectric constant, said insert being located proximate said first member where said first and second members coextend and having an edge located substantially at the end of said first member.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 122 words
Electrical apparatus with a high voltage electrical conductor insulated to provide reduced electrical stress and comprising: a first conductive member; a second conductive member spaced from said first member; said first and second members being substantially coextensive for a distance to a location at which said first member ends and said second member extends therefrom; insulation on said second member, said insulation comprising a plurality of layers of resin bonded insulating tape of a first dielectric constant and an insert of material of a second dielectric constant, substantially higher than said first dielectric constant, said insert being located proximate said first member where said first and second members coextend and having an edge located substantially at the end of said first member.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
The subject matter of claim 1 wherein: said insert comprises barium titanate powder in a resin binder.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 12 words
