The behavior of the polymeric insulators under salt-storm conditions is crucial for their design. In this paper the leakage currents monitored on silicone composite insulators during two severe salt-storms on the Swedish West Coast are analyzed. The results show that reduction of the leakage distance on silicone rubber units causes considerable dry-band arc activity.
