ELECRAMA 2025: A Global Powerhouse of Innovation and Connections

From February 22-26, 2025, we had the privilege of attending ELECRAMA 2025, the 16th edition of the world’s largest standalone electrical exhibition, held at the India Expo Mart, Greater Noida, Delhi NCR. Organized by the Indian Electrical & Electronics Manufacturers’ Association (IEEMA), ELECRAMA serves as a premier global platform that showcases the entire electrical and allied equipment ecosystem, from generation to transmission, distribution, and automation technologies. ELECRAMA 2025 was a testament to the sheer scale and importance of the electrical industry, bringing together top-tier professionals, engineers, manufacturers, and policymakers from around the world. The event covered an expansive exhibition area, featuring a vast range of electrical solutions and the latest technological innovations driving the future of energy and power distribution.



The environmental impacts of flashover phenomenon on the insulators

The environmental impacts such as uniform and non-unform pollution, ambient pressure (altitude), temperature, fog, mist, etc. are contributing factors of flashover phenomenon on different types of electrical insulators made of glass, porcelain, and composite polymer, as well as of silicon rubber. In this review work, it was attempted to compile different available literatures from past elven (11) years on flashover due to the above-mentioned environmental impacts on flashover phenomenon of insulators based on national and international studies. Experimental and modelling studies revealed that major contributing factors related to environmental impacts comprise flashover phenomenon on insulators, which affected the electricity transmission system. Moreover, it is emphasized that porcelain insulator is comparatively better than silicon rubber insulator. It is suggested that different types of insulators should be compared with individual pollutants and some abiotic factors.
