Introduction
Electrical Design, Operation, & Maintenance of High Voltage
AC & DC Transmission Lines requires consideration of:
– Air Insulation
– Corona
– Insulators
All three aspects require knowledge of electrical discharges
in air, which may comprise:
– Partial Breakdown (Corona)
– Complete Breakdown (Gap Discharges)

Corona & Gap Discharges
Corona is an electrical discharge (i.e. partial breakdown of
air insulation) occurring in the high electric field region,
generally in the vicinity of conducting surfaces, but
sometimes also near insulating surfaces, due to ionization
processes in the air.
Complete electrical breakdown of air insulation between two
electrodes separated by a very small gap is known as a
micro-gap discharge or simply known as Gap Discharge.

Basic Ionization Processes
Classical Bohr’s Model of Atom
Ionization and Excitation by Electron Impact
Collision of an electron with an atom can cause excitation or ionization depending on the energy impact.
Excitation = electron within the atom moves to higher orbit
Ionization = electron separates from atom and moves far away from atom
A= neutral atom, A* = excited atom, A+ = positive ion, e = electron
A + e A* + e (excitation)
A + e A+ + e + e (ionization)
Photo excitation (absorption of light) & Photo ionization - hv = energy released or absorbed,
h = Planck’s constant, v = frequency of radiation
A + hv A* (Photo excitation)
A + hv1 A+ + e + hv2 (Photo ionization)

Breakdown and Corona
Excitation of molecules and photon emission occur
simultaneously with ionization
Secondary ionization processes, due to impact of ions or
photons, play a crucial role in breakdown
In non-uniform fields, such as in a Conductor – Plane gap,
only partial breakdown or Corona occurs.

Light Emission from Discharges
Excitation: A + e A* + e
Photo Emission: A* A + hv
with hv = E2 – E1
Where E2 - Energy of the excited state & E1 – Energy of the
ground state to which the molecule returns
Light spectrum emitted in air is mainly that of molecular
nitrogen
Excitation potentials of N2 = 6.3 eV, and of O2 = 7.9 eV

Light Emission from Discharges
The frequency band of light emitted is in the UV range, with
the stronger emissions having wavelengths in the range of
300 nm to 500 nm and the weaker emissions in the range of
80 nm to 200 nm.
The excitation coefficient (i.e. number of molecules excited
by an electron drifting 1 cm in the field direction) depends on
the composition of the air and is a function of E/p.
Presence of any trace gases such as argon, carbon dioxide,
etc., can change the light spectrum emitted by discharges in
air.
Spectroscopic data in air suggest that sparks (breakdown)
produce more intense light than streamers (corona).

Photo Absorption
Photons developed during avalanche development in air are
absorbed:
(a) Partly by other gas molecules
(b) Partly by negative oxygen molecules in the gas
leading to photo-detachment
O2- + hv O2 + e
Other mechanisms leading to loss of photons are:
– Photoionization, stepionization, dissociation, and dissociative
ionization
Overall photoabsorption may be characterized by I
