    About Book

    The material in this book has been organized into five sections, namely
    (i) insulating materials and their applications in electrical and electronic engineering,
    (ii) breakdown phenomena in insulating materials—solids, liquids, and gases,
    (iii) generation and measurement of high dc, ac, and impulse voltages and currents,
    (iv) overvoltage phenomena in electrical power transmission systems and insulation coordination,
    and
    (v) high-voltage testing techniques, testing of apparatus and equipment, and planning of high-voltage
    laboratories.
    Much of the information on these topics has been drawn from standard textbooks and reference
    books and have been simplified and reorganized to suit the needs of the students and graduate
    engineers. Many research publications have also been referred to, and relevant standard
    specifications have been quoted to help the reader gain easy access to the original references.
