This paper is aimed at the comparison of breakdown voltages of SF6 and mixtures at different concentrations of Fluoronitriles in CO2. The experiments are conducted in different electrodes geometries under DC and lightning impulse voltages.
This paper is aimed at the breakdown characteristics of Fluoronitriles – CO2 gas mixtures in different experimental conditions; these mixtures constitute promising substitutes to SF6 gas in high voltage applications especially gas insulating switchgear (GIS).
In order to ensure the energy transmission from remote production stations to load centres, it is well known that High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) presents some advantages compared to High Voltage Alternative Current (HVAC).

Pumped Storage Plants (PSP) using reversible pump-turbines offer the possibility to store large amounts of energy with high efficiency and at reasonable cost. For reversible high head pump-turbines, the characteristic curves exhibit an S-shape in the turbine, turbine break and reverse pump quadrants. This S-shape leads to unstable behavior of the turbine when coupling to the grid (for small guide vane opening) or to surge transient phenomena in case of emergency shutdown (for large guide vane opening).

Charge accumulation on solid insulator in Gas Insulated Substation (GIS) is one of the major issues under Direct Current (DC). A specific device has been developed in order to assess the origin of such charges within SF6, in a coaxial geometry.
