Abstract:
In this paper a special test setup able to assess lifespan models of electrical motor insulation system under various stress conditions is proposed. The test bed will allow characterizing insulation degradation mechanisms under variable ambient and power supply parameters, from simple models, such as twisted pairs, up to coil form and complete machine operated at rated load.
