Field of High Voltage Engineering at Graz University of Technology

Abstract

High Voltage Engineering is an important task at the Graz University of Technology since the early 1970s. Additional importance was given by the national decission, to offer this university and research activities for Austria in Graz only. Therfore this paper reports—based on the history—the actual situation of university education and research activities in the field of high voltage engineering and gives impressions on high voltage (HV) and extra high voltage (EHV) test facilities and test examples at the accredited laboratory of this university.
