INSULATION COORDINATION COURSE

INSULATION COORDINATION Specifying Insulation Strength


In Standards - There exist a standard number series for both BIL & BSL that equipment standards are encouraged to use - For any specific equipment there is a relation between BIL & BSL - For example for a transformer, BSL is approximately 83% of BIL
