Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of epoxy resin health assessment, in particular to an epoxy resin insulation health assessment method considering high and low temperature environments. Background Art

[0002] Insulating resin is widely used in the field of electrical insulation due to its excellent electrical insulation performance, mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and mature technology. For example, bushings, contact boxes, post insulators, and insulating sleeves can be used as packaging materials to effectively isolate electrical components from the complex external environment and improve the insulation performance of equipment. However, with the continuous increase in the capacity of the power system, epoxy resin faces the phenomenon of declining insulation health in high or low temperature working environments. The decline in its own health status restricts the reliability and service life of equipment operation. Once the health status of the insulating material declines, it is easy to cause electrical breakdown and scarring and ablation, causing electrical equipment and components to fail and damage. The failure rate of power equipment caused by the decline in insulation health is very high. The insulation health status of epoxy resin affects the safe and stable operation of the power system.

[0003] Existing research results show that the rise in ambient temperature will lead to a decrease in the health of epoxy resin and more serious insulation degradation, but there is currently a lack of evaluation methods for the health of epoxy resin to determine the health of epoxy resin in high and low temperature environments. Therefore, it is urgent to study the insulation health evaluation method of epoxy resin considering high and low temperature environments, which can provide an important reference for understanding the insulation health of epoxy resin.
