Polymeric insulators are largely used in electrical systems. However, these equipment still present serious problems, mainly related to their polymeric material layer. When the polymer is exposed to intense electric fields, insulation failure and loss of hydrophobicity may occur.
These problems are caused due to non-uniform electric field distribution along the insulator, which tends to...

Objective: Oil-paper insulation is widely used in transformer bushings and current transformers, and the detection of partial discharge (PD) in this type of insulation has been paid attention. However, current methods for PD detection in these apparatus usually do not have satisfying performance in either sensitivity or noise rejection capacity. In this paper, an advanced method for PD...

The performance data of high voltage resistors in specific pulsed power applications is limited. A series of tests were performed on epoxy coated high voltage ceramic composite resistors. With the implementation of these resistors in unique applications that result in their exposure to high energy surge environments such as air conditioners and electric vehicles, there is a need for a better...

This paper presents an investigation of the influence of different operating conditions of HVDC convertors on partial discharge behavior occurring within cables on the DC side of an HVDC system. Cables at the DC side undergo different stresses due to transients and harmonics, which affect their insulation integrity and may result in an intensified level of partial discharge (PD) activity. Most...

Isolation capability of organic and inorganic isolation materials is considerably different in respect to time. There is a relatively poor dependence on time in case of inorganic isolation materials. It is very significant in case of organic materials (that are more often in use). This paper will consider life expectancy of form-wound coil isolation of high-voltage motor depending on the part...

Circuit breakers are important components in the electrical power supply grid. The maintenance of high voltage gas circuit breakers requires high personal as well as monetary efforts for the asset operator. Furthermore, a faulty reassembly of the circuit breaker during maintenance can lead to a circuit breaker failure during operation. For this reason the maintenance strategy changed from a...

The purpose of this paper is the identification and classification of different sources of partial discharge (PD). These PD sources are due to artificially introducing defects, which are carefully designed in the power cable insulation. PD data is collected from the experimental work in high voltage laboratory with the aid of a conventional phase-resolved PD analyzer LDD-6. After that, the...

ABSTRACT: Multiple PD sources may occur simultaneously in power equipment, and cause the interpretation problems such as pattern recognition and risk assessment. The separation of mixed signals is of importance for reliable interpretation. The separation features in most of the methods are with fixed mathematical equations, which may not applicable to the variable experimental conditions such...

RTV coatings and composite insulators had been widely used in electric insulations to prevent pollution flashover. Many methods of materials analysis were used to get more information about the content, the elements components, and the structures such as IR spectrum, XPS, EDS and XRD.
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) was an effective technique, unlike other conventional surface...

The purpose of this study is to investigate temperature profiles of electric arc discharges in a medium-voltage switchgear. This project aims at Validation of simulations of electric arc discharges temperatures. Therefore a simple contact geometry was applied under 150 A and 550 A of alternating current at normal atmosphere. The contacts were made up of both copper and copper-wolfram.

Gas insulated switchgear (GIS) is the most important equipment in grid. It has been widely used in power system for the merits of small size and high reliability. Especially for the city substation, GIS is the preferred power equipment. GIS has the compact structure and it is difficult to repair once there are defects inside the GIS. It is the important step to monitor the defects inside GIS....
