It responds to faults such as gas generated by equipment failure, loss of insulating oil, and accelerated circulation caused by sudden expansion of insulating oil, and links emergency measures.
[0003] The existing double-float gas relay junction box is arranged under the top cover, with the terminal and the oil flow direction perpendicular, and the cover is sealed by a sealing gasket. However, with the years of operation, environmental impact and aging of the sealing gasket, it is easy for snow to accumulate and water to seep around the cover in icy, snowy and rainy weather, causing internal moisture and condensation, leading to DC grounding faults and even causing the main transformer circuit breaker to trip. In addition, the oil level observation window uses transparent plexiglass. Although the pressure resistance of the observation window is improved, because the transformer oil is colorless, it is difficult for the inspectors to distinguish whether the gas relay is fully filled with oil or insufficient oil through the observation window, which can easily cause the inspectors to misjudge and cause the transformer to lose the protection of the gas relay, affecting the safe and stable operation of the power grid and causing major safety hazards.
[0004] Therefore, according to the deficiencies in the above-mentioned technology, it is necessary to propose a new type of double-float gas relay that is rainproof, condensation-proof, moisture-proof, and prevents DC grounding and is easy to observe. Summary of the invention
