Breakdown resistance analysis of traction motor winding insulation under thermal ageing

Stator inter-turn faults are among the most important electric motor failures as they progress fast and lead to catastrophic motor breakdowns. Inter-turn faults are caused due to the windings’ insulation degradation. The main stress which deteriorates the insulation is the thermal one. Proper unders...
