Editorial Reviews

". . .one of the few recent texts dealing with the broad range of insulation materials used in power systems, including vacuum, gas, liquid, solid, and composite materials. . . .a good collection in one place of the basic information in this area…should be useful to practicing engineers as well as to students.
