material or on boundaries between the solid and the electrodes. These cavities a
re usually filled with a medium (gas or liquid) of lower breakdown strength
than the solid. Moreover, the permittivity of the filling medium is frequently
lower than that of the solid insulation, which causes the field intensity in the
cavity to be higher than in the dielectric. Accordingly, under normal working
stress of the insulation system the voltage across the cavity may exceed the
breakdown value and may initiate breakdown in the void.
