Abstract
The presented article concerns issues related to the diagnostics of the technical condition of the insulation of electrical machines. It discusses the importance of the operational supervision, maintenance and diagnostics of electrical machine insulation systems. The structure of the insulation system is presented and known solutions for making winding insulation are described. The negative impact of conditions and various exposures on the technical condition of the insulation system is described. Special attention is focused on the review of available diagnostic methods for insulating systems of electrical machines. These methods have been arranged in a systematic order according to the type of tests to be carried out.
