Abstract: A high temperature electrical insulation system is provided by forming a winding in an electrical device from a conductor that is pre-coated with a first layer of at least partially cured inorganic material. A second layer of inorganic material is applied, either during or just prior to forming the winding, over the first layer in order to seal any cracks in the first layer. The resultant electrical insulative coating is cured following the forming process, essentially at room temperature.

Furthermore, because no organics are utilized in either the manufacture or operation of the insulation system, there is no residual carbon in the resultant coating.
