This paper deals with surface discharges and flashover voltages on epoxy resin nanocomposite surfaces. Factors, such as, water droplet number and volume, droplet conductivity as well as the distance of the droplets from the electrodes affect both surface discharges and flashover voltages. Moreover, the degradation of the insulting material is indicated in this paper. © 2019 IEEE.
