Breakdown behavior of insulating gases for HVDC applications

Since the early 1960ies, Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF 6 ) has been used as insulating and arc-quenching gas in gas insulated high voltage equipment. SF 6 has nearly ideal dielectric, physical and chemical insulating properties. It has, however extremely high global warming potential as well as large atmo...
