Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of partial discharge detection technology, and in particular to a partial discharge coupling device. Background Technology

[0002] The sensitivity, resolution, and waveform characteristics of partial discharge (PD) measurements in high-voltage electrical equipment are directly affected by the detection impedance, i.e., the coupling device (CD). In practice, an appropriate coupling device (CD) should be selected based on the specific testing objective, the type of test sample, and the type of testing instrument used to achieve the desired testing results. The coupling device (CD) generally consists of a resistor... R ,capacitance C ,inductance L These components are used individually or in combination, and are typically employed. Figure 1 The types shown are: R-type, RC-type, L-type, LC-type, and RLC-type.

[0003] Figure 2 The diagram shows a typical PD test circuit using the pulse current method, under a certain test voltage. U Under the action of the test sample C a When a transient voltage drop (PD) occurs internally, a corresponding transient voltage drop will inevitably be generated across the test sample. However, when a PD does not occur, the test sample will not experience a transient voltage drop. C a With coupling capacitor C k The voltages at both ends are equal. Because C a A transient voltage drop across the terminals will cause C k The voltage across the terminals will be higher (or lower) than (or lower than) the specified voltage. C a The current voltage at both ends makes C k Immediately C a Charging (because the charging time constant of the power supply circuit is large, the power supply has not yet had time to charge the circuit) C a (Charging). That is, a charging pulse current is generated throughout the entire test circuit, and this pulse current generates a pulse voltage on the coupling device CD. U z , U z This refers to the PD signal measured by the measuring instrument MI.

[0004] However, since the generation of the PD signal is related to the applied test voltage U, the measuring instrument MI also needs to be connected to the high-voltage divider in the test circuit.

[0045] A partial discharge coupling device, comprising:

C m The second terminal and the ground terminal GD between.

[0047] In this embodiment, the coupling device and the coupling capacitor C k Used in series (i.e.) Figure 2 (a)), its structure is as follows Figure 3 As shown:

[0048] The measurement circuit includes the sample.

Partial discharge pulse output. PD (10) and AC test voltage output AC (11) Connect the two signal output terminals to the measuring instrument MI ( Figure 3 (Not shown in the image).

[0049] Overvoltage protector P 1 (8) and overvoltage protector P 2(9) can be set according to the specific design. Under normal circumstances, the protection limit is 100V, that is, the value at the instrument input terminal is not greater than 100V.

[0050] Figure 3 The parameters for the PD test detection circuit diagram shown are calculated as follows:

[0051] Assume the following circuit parameters: Measuring resistance R m = 500 Ω, the lower detection limit frequency can be obtained. f 1 = 100 kHz, calculated according to the formula in GB / T 7354-2018:

[0052] f 1 = 1 / (2π * C k * R m (1)

[0053] Coupling capacitor C k The required capacitance value can be calculated using the following formula:

[0054] C k = 1 / ( 2π * f 1 * R m ) = 3.2 nF (2)

[0055] In this case, current flows through the coupling capacitor C k The amplitude of the alternating current may cause the measured resistance R m The voltage drop across the terminals is relatively high, which may damage the partial discharge pulse output. PD (10) and AC test voltage output AC(11) Input unit of connected instruments. For example, if used for inductive PD testing of power transformers. f ac Given an excitation frequency of 400 Hz, the calculated capacitance impedance of the coupling capacitor is:

[0056] Z c = 1 / (2π * f ac * C k ) = 1 / (2π * 400 Hz * 3.2 nF) = 125 kΩ (3)

[0057] but, f ac The voltage division ratio at 400 Hz is 500 Ω / 125 kΩ = 1 / 250. Therefore, assuming U ac = 500kV AC test voltage amplitude causes resistance measurement impedance R m The voltage drop across the resistor can reach as high as 500 kV / 250 = 2000 V. To reduce this dangerous voltage, the resistance is measured. R m By parallel inductor L m Diversion, such as Figure 3 As shown. At this point, the lower limit frequency will not decrease significantly. This condition is achieved in the following way:

[0058] L m > 10 * R m / (2π * f 1) = L m > 10 * R m / (2π * 100 kHz) = 8 mH (4)

[0059] For the previously assumed maximum test frequency f ac = 400 Hz, parallel inductor L m The inductor impedance is:

[0060] Z l = 2π * 400 Hz * L m = 20 Ω (5)

[0061] Parallel inductors L m and measuring resistance R m With coupling capacitor C k The resulting frequency division ratio after series connection is approximately 20 Ω / 125 kΩ = 1 / 6250. This means that the 500 kV test voltage level will now only be 80 V, or 500 kV / 6250.

[0062] Similarly, the test voltage is 500 kV, and the AC test voltage is... AC To attenuate to 100 V, a voltage division ratio of 1:5000 is required. For the aforementioned coupling capacitor... C k = 3.2 nF, measured capacitance C m This condition is met when the capacitance is 16 µF. Here, the capacitance is measured. C m With coupling capacitor C k This forms the low-voltage arm of the capacitor voltage divider.

[0063] Because the spectra of the PD pulse and the AC test voltage are very different, the two signals are at the partial discharge pulse output. PD (10) and AC test voltage output AC (11) is completely separated, which can satisfy the PD measurement system using an oscilloscope or a data acquisition device based on a high-speed acquisition card to display the PD pulse in a phase-resolved or voltage waveform manner.

[0064] The advantages of this invention are as follows:

[0065] 1. Integrated design: This coupling device achieves complete separation of partial discharge pulse and test voltage output, making it convenient for users.

[0066] 2. Improved reliability and work efficiency: It avoids the need to install a high-voltage divider in traditional test circuits. The reduction of one high-voltage device improves the overall system reliability. In addition, it speeds up the construction and dismantling of test circuits, thus improving work efficiency.

[0067] 3. Small size and low cost: The resulting coupling device reduces the space required for carrying and storage, thus reducing the equipment purchase and maintenance costs of the high-voltage divider.

[0068] Example 2:

[0069] In Example 1, the coupling device CD With coupling capacitor C k (3) Used in series (i.e.) Figure 2(a) Application form), resulting in, as Figure 3 The circuit diagram of the PD test detection loop shown is illustrated in this embodiment, and the coupling device... CD Used in series with the test sample (i.e.) Figure 2 (b) The application form), can also be used in other embodiments. Figure 2 (c) and Figure 2 (d) The self-excited sample is measured and measured at the tap of the sleeve. The principle is the same as in Example 1, which can be understood by those skilled in the art, and will not be repeated here.

[0070] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make numerous modifications and variations based on the concept of the present invention without creative effort. Therefore, all technical solutions that can be obtained by those skilled in the art based on the concept of the present invention through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experimentation on the basis of existing technology should be within the scope of protection defined by the claims.
