Over the past decades, extensive experimental-based research works have been carried out
to investigate the flashover phenomenon on the performance of polluted transmission line …

A novel modified cuckoo search (MCS) algorithm is proposed to enhance the performance
of cuckoo search. In this MCS algorithm, an enhancing exploration strategy is adopted to …

Partial discharge (PD) could lead to the formation of small arcs or sparks within the
insulating material, which can cause damage and degradation to the insulator over time. In …

The current work investigates the flashover voltage of an 11 kV porcelain insulator against
changes in the location of the dry band, salt deposit density, humidity, non-uniform pollution …

The aim of this work is to model the influence of uneven contamination distribution under
various humidity on the pollution flashover voltage of 11 kV porcelain insulator disc. Four …

This paper describes the application of least squares support vector machine combined with
particle swarm optimisation (LS-SVM-PSO) model to estimate the critical Flashover Voltage …

Many theoretical and experimental studies have been performed to optimize the
maintenance times of outdoor insulators. But most of the proposed methods are both time …

This paper aims to assess the effect of dry band location of contaminated porcelain
insulators under various flashover voltages due to humidity. Four locations of dry bands are …

This study aims to predict the flashover voltage (FOV) of silicone rubber (SiR) insulators.
Accordingly, it benefits from two methods, including an artificial neural network (ANN) model …

This paper proposes an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model for AC flash-over voltage
prediction of Silicone Rubber (SiR) insulators based on the experimental tests. In flash-over …
