Comparison of VPI and Resin-Rich Insulation Systems

The document compares three different insulation systems for electrical machines: vacuum pressure impregnation (VPI), resin rich, and VPI with pre-loaded tapes. All three systems use mica paper and glass fabric insulation with variations in resin content and processing. The systems have negligible differences in insulation strength, voltage grading, and corona protection. VPI and VPI with tapes provide void-free insulation and extremely low levels of partial discharge.

Advantages • Void-free insulation by • Low viscosity resin during • Void-free insulation by


removal of air through the heating results in very few removal of air through the
vacuum process retained voids vacuum process

• Penetration of impregnating • Insulation system results in • Presence of pre-enpreqnat-


resin into the insulation to fill very high dielectric strength ed tapes ensures maximum
