Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of mutual inductors, and in particular relates to a fully enclosed current mutual inductor. Background Art
[0002] The current transformer is an instrument that converts the large current on the primary side into a small current on the secondary side for measurement based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. The current transformer is composed of a closed iron core and windings. Its primary winding has few turns and is connected in series in the circuit of the current to be measured, so it often has the entire current of the circuit flowing through it. The secondary winding has more turns and is connected in series in the measuring instrument and the protection circuit. When the current transformer is working, its secondary circuit is always closed, so the impedance of the series coil of the measuring instrument and the protection circuit is very small, and the working state of the current transformer is close to short circuit.
[0003] In the measurement and protection of power systems, current transformers can be used with measuring instruments to measure the current and electric energy of the system, and with relays to protect the system and equipment from overcurrent, overload and grounding. The use of current transformers must meet both the requirements of protection and measurement and the requirements of accuracy. Especially for high voltage and small ratio current transformers, they must meet the above requirements while maintaining product stability.
[0004] Most of the existing current transformers usually only have a measurement function or only have a protection function. For a high-voltage switch cabinet equipped with a measuring instrument and a protection device, at least two current transformers need to be installed to connect with the measuring instrument and the protection device respectively, which undoubtedly increases the number of current transformers used and increases the cost. In addition, the existing current transformers are usually installed by fixing the mounting plate on the current transformer to the corresponding structure in the cabinet with fasteners such as bolts and nuts. This installation method is relatively cumbersome. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a fully enclosed current transformer.
[0006] In order to solve the above problems, the fully enclosed current transformer provided by the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] A fully enclosed current transformer comprises an insulating shell and a protective iron core, a metering iron core, a secondary protective winding and a secondary metering winding cast inside the insulating shell, wherein the secondary protective winding is wound on the protective iron core and the secondary metering winding is wound on the metering iron core;
[0008] The insulating shell comprises a shell, an annular seat protruding out of the shell, and an umbrella skirt arranged on the side of the shell;
[0009] The shell is provided with a circular through hole for the current-carrying conductor to pass through, and the shell is provided with a rectangular fixing groove recessed toward the inside of the insulating shell at the position of the circular through hole, the circular through hole extends along its axial direction to the bottom of the rectangular fixing groove, and the annular seat is coaxially arranged with the circular through hole;
[0010] The axis of the umbrella skirt is perpendicular to the axis of the circular perforation. A wiring board is arranged inside the umbrella skirt. The incoming and outgoing terminals of the secondary protection winding and the secondary metering winding are connected to the wiring board.
[0011] Furthermore, the shell is an annular column structure, and the axis of the shell is the same as the axis of the circular through hole.
[0012] Furthermore, the shed is arranged at the center position of the axial direction of the shell, the axis of the wiring board is the same as the axis of the shed, and the incoming and outgoing terminals of the secondary protection winding and the secondary metering winding are arranged in a rectangular array on the wiring board.
[0013] Furthermore, the insulating shell is integrally cast by epoxy resin.
[0014] Furthermore, the lengths of the groove walls of the rectangular fixing groove are the same.
[0015] Furthermore, the four vertices of the rectangular fixing groove are in contact with the inner wall of the annular seat body.
[0016] The beneficial effects of the fully enclosed current transformer of the utility model are:
[0017] The fully enclosed current transformer of the utility model is provided with a secondary protection winding and a secondary metering winding at the same time, and can be connected to a measuring device and a protection device at the same time, outputting a protection current and a metering current. It can be applied in a high-voltage switch cabinet to reduce the number of current transformers used. In addition, through integral casting of epoxy resin, a fully enclosed structure is formed, the overall insulation performance is good, an umbrella skirt is provided, the creepage distance is large, and maintenance is convenient. Compared with the existing current transformers, the utility model does not provide a corresponding connection fixing plate structure on the insulating shell of the current transformer, but instead uses the inner cavity formed by the rectangular fixing groove and the annular seat body to be clamped and fixed with the corresponding structure in the switch cabinet, thereby reducing the use of components such as bolts and nuts, and making installation more convenient.
