Abstract
The influence of relative air humidity on the surface charge decay on epoxy resin insulators initially charged by DC corona and on their surface resistivity is investigated at room temperature. It has been observed, that surface resistivity of the epoxy resin insulators decreases significantly at higher relative humidity. Thus, at higher relative humidity surface charge decay is dominated by electric conduction along the insulator surface. This effect has been verified by both, measurement and simulation of the surface charge decay.

Surface charge migration and dc surface flashover of surface-modified epoxy-based insulators

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of direct fluorination on surface charge migration and flashover voltage was verified, and it was shown that the surface charge decay of epoxy-based model insulators is a slow process, but the decay rate increases when an outer dc electric field is applied.

Surface-potential decay due to surface conduction

TL;DR: In this article, the time dependence of the surface potential of an insulating material is theoretically investigated in the case of simultaneous surface and volume ohmic conduction, and it is shown that the first part of the decrease with time of surface potential is strongly influenced by the initial distribution of charges and cannot be used to determine the surface conductivity.
