How Altitude Affects HV Equipment Insulation & Temperature Rise?
As altitude increases, air density, temperature, and atmospheric pressure decrease accordingly, leading to reduced dielectric strength of air gaps and external insulation performance of porcelain components. This results in degraded external insulation performance for high-voltage electrical equipment. Since most high-voltage equipment is designed for installation at altitudes below 1,000 meters, using such equipment at elevations exceeding 1,000 meters may compromise reliable insulation perform
