Statistical approach for determining breakdown voltage of gas-insulated cables

Alternatives to the method proposed by F. Yildirim and C. Korasli (ibid., vol.27, no.6, pp.1186-1192, 1992) for estimation of parameters of a three-parameter Weibull distribution are given. Corrections are also given for formulas presented in that paper. Yildirim and Korasli, in a reply, point out that their calculations utilized corrected formulas.<
