Abstract
A method of securing a corona ring for controlling a corona discharge, including inserting a support member of an insulator to be secured, between a first ring securing portion arranged integrally with the corona ring and a second ring securing portion arranged independently with respect to the first ring securing portion, and fixing the first ring securing portion and the second ring securing portion from each other. In this method, since a corona discharge ring improper mounting preventing apparatus is arranged on the first ring securing portion, one of the ring securing portions is preliminarily secured to the support member, a ring securing method at the seal portion of the support member is improved and/or a corona discharge ring improper mounting preventing apparatus is arranged on said support member it is not possible to fix the corona ring to the support member if the corona ring is secured in an incorrect position with respect to the support member. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a corona ring mis-securing operation.
