- Introduction of State Key Laboratory of Electrical Insulation and Power Equipment
The State Key Laboratory of Electrical Insulation and Power Equipment at Xi’an Jiaotong University of Chinawas established in 1991 and formally opened to the public in October 1995. At present, the laboratory is managed by the Director, Professor Wang Jianhua and the Director of the Academic Committee, Professor Lei Qingquan who is a member of the ChineseAcademy of Engineering.
The laboratory is supported by three national key disciplines, namely High Voltage & Electrical Insulation Technique, Electrical Machinery & Electrical Apparatus, and Power System & its Automation. It also has two additional disciplines: Power Electronics & Electrical Drive and Theory & new Technology of Electrical Engineering. The research fields of the laboratory involve: (1) Structures, properties, characterizations and applications of dielectric materials (including nano-composites, biodielectrics); (2) Electric power equipment and its intellectualization; (3) Life management of electric power equipment and its electrical insulation system; (4) Advanced technology of electrical engineering.
The laboratory maintains the policy of “Open, Flexible, Cooperative and Competitive”. We dedicate to scientific research and seek to make contributions for material preparation, structure design, manufacturing and assembly, operation management, life prediction method of electric power equipments. It has become a world-known source and base for remarkable contributions in scientific research, education, academic exchanges, and technology transfer in the general field of electric powerequipment in China.
