Studies have shown that SF/sub 6/-N/sub 2/ gas mixture is a viable alternative to SF/sub 6/ gas for high voltage applications. However, the performance of spacers in gas mixture needs complete evaluation for a better understanding of the long term performance of GIS. This study aims at evaluation of...
