During operation these materials may be subjectto electrical, thermal and mechanical stresses andmust be capable to endure the same and possess thefollowing,Electrical stresses high breakdown voltage good long time performance low partial discharges (minimum voids withininsulation or on interface between insulation systems) very small leakage or creepage stresses high long time
