3. A corona ring, also called as anti-corona ring,
is a toroid of conductive material, usually
metal, which is attached to a terminal of high
voltage equipment. The role of the corona
ring is to distribute the electric field gradient
and lower its maximum values below the
corona threshold, preventing corona
discharge.
Introduction to Corona Ring
7. Other Use of Corona Ring
• Van de Graaff generators
• Electrical insulators
• Cockcroft–Walton generators
• particle accelerators
• Lightning Arresters
• Nuclear bomb protection
• Research center
8. Ingress Protection or Index Protection
The level of protection
provided by enclosures
to prevent the ingress
of foreign objects and
moisture into the
electrical equipment.

10. AVR Microcontroller
AVR microcontroller executes
most of the instructions in
single execution cycle. AVR is
an 8-bit microcontroller
belonging to the family of
Reduced Instruction Set
Computer (RISC). In RISC
architecture the instruction
set of the computer are not
only fewer in number but also
simpler and faster in
operation
11. Important Terms In AVR
• EEPROM
• SPI
• ISP
• WATCHDOG
• Clock Oscillator
• USART
• TQFP/MLF and PDIP
BKBIET
12. Conclusion
• Corona Ring is used in high voltage applications. To reduce
corona and its ill effects, corona ring is a very useful device.
• Ingress Protection is a measure of protection level of a
machine. Knowledge of Ingress Protection is very necessary
for an Electrical and Mechanical Engineers.
• AVR microcontroller is a modern microcontroller which
executes most of the instructions in single execution cycle.
So it can be implemented in various fields applications such
as Robotics, Scientific Researches, Defense etc.
