Electrical insulation

breakdown of solid insulation when heat from conduction and dielectric loss outruns heat removal so temperature runs away.

In electrical insulation, thermal breakdown of dielectrics refers to breakdown of solid insulation when heat from conduction and dielectric loss outruns heat removal so temperature runs away. This meaning comes from Wagner (1922) in Transactions of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers.[1]
