- This paper introduces a novel method for monitoring contamination levels on high voltage insulators based on microwave radiometry. This novel contamination monitoring method could provide advance warning of the future failure of wet insulators in climates where insulators can experience dry conditions for extended periods. The paper is published in the most prestigious journal in the dielectrics discipline. The work provides a foundation for future investigations into the development of an on-line monitoring system for insulator pollution that is effective under dry conditions which makes it distinguishable from other systems.
