Estimation of electric stress and surface potential for traction insulators by Reddy, B Subba, Madhulita, Monali, Chaudhuri, Tanaya

“…Constant exposure to detrimental effects of vandalism, and mechanical vibrations begets certain faults like shorting of sheds or cracks in the sheds. Due to fault in one/two sheds, stress on the remaining healthy sheds increases, owing to atmospheric pollution the stress may lead to a flashover of the insulator. …”
