Associate Professor Nor Asiah Muhamad

Universiti Teknologi Brunei, Brunei Darussalam

With millions of homes and businesses relying on the National Grid, engineering research in high voltage electrical energy systems is very important in protecting from surges, preventing blackouts, and ensuring safety and efficiency from the grid across. My research interest lies in detecting incipient faults for condition monitoring of electrical power equipment as well as at the transmission system to ensure continuous supply from generation to the end-user. Besides that, I also doing research to find and do the improvement of new insulation material developed for high voltage equipment applications.
