HV rotating Machines have been for a long time a major component in many power systems such as generation of electricity and different types of motors. Due to its nature, any rotating machine needs to withstand electrical and mechanical stresses degrading the insulation materials causing irreversible and serious damage and even catastrophic and fatal to the entire system.
