Abstract: This invention relates to electrical articles having an electrical coil such as high-tension transformers, ignition coils and the like which are excellent in withstand voltage and endurance; and to a method for manufacturing the same. These electrical articles have an electrical coil in which a sheet material such as paper, cloth or non-woven fabric comprising cellulose as major constituent is used as at least a part of interlayer insulator. Said sheet material is characterized by being impregnated with one or more pretreating resins selected from the group consisting of phenolic resins, s-triazine ring compound resins, and phenol-s-triazine ring compound co-condensation resins and further impregnated with a thermosetting resin composition containing an epoxy resin, unsaturated polyester resin, 1,2-polybutadiene resin or silicone resin, said resin being hardened.
