In electrical engineering manufacturing, one of the most important processes stems from making sure the material used to distribute the electrical current is safe and operating correctly. The precarious nature of electricity makes developing innovative material for advanced safety a high-ranking priority for researchers. Electrical Insulation Breakdown and Its Theory, Process, and Prevention: Emerging Research and Opportunities provides innovative insights into the latest developments and achievements in high voltage insulation breakdown. Featuring topics such as nanodielectrics, thermal stability, and transmission technology, it is designed for engineers, including those that work with high voltage power systems, researchers, practitioners, professionals, and students interested in the upkeep and practice of electric material safety.

This book systematically introduces electromagnetic theories and their applications in practice: electrostatic energy, Poynting theorem, the polarization of waves, the conservation law, the electromagnetic symmetry, the conformal mapping method, the electromagnetic loss. The parameters and theorems of electromagnetic theories are discussed in detail, making the book an essential reference for researchers, and engineers in electromagnetics field.

This text studies ways to ground and shield electronic equipment and facilities to control interference. The language of power engineers and the National Electrical Code are explained. The author also lays the ground rules for safety and explains how to attack and solve problems in grounding and shielding via a field theoretic approach rather than a circuit approach. Background theory is given and various hardware and equipment, all key areas in grounding and shielding, ESD, screened rooms, and topics in field coupling are provided.
