Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of lightning protection for transformers, and particularly relates to a lightning protection device for a transformer. Background Art

[0002] Transformer lightning protection refers to taking a series of technologies and measures to protect transformers from lightning overvoltage damage. Lightning is a powerful natural phenomenon. When lightning directly hits the power system or occurs nearby, it will generate extremely high voltages. These voltage waves will invade the transformer along the transmission line, posing a great threat to the insulation system of the transformer, and may cause insulation breakdown, damage or destruction of the transformer.

[0003] For existing transformer lightning protection, usually a lightning protection device is installed on the transformer to protect it from lightning. However, when it rains, the transformer will also be drenched by rain. Since rainwater is conductive, the transformer will be electrocuted, and then the transformer is damaged. At the same time, no guiding component for transferring electricity is provided on the lightning protection device, resulting in a reduced lightning protection effect.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a lightning protection device for a transformer that can protect the transformer with a casing and has a guiding component for transferring the electricity absorbed by lightning protection. Summary of the Utility Model

An insulating support frame is connected to the installation base, a lightning protection net is connected to the insulating support frame, two lightning arresters are connected to the lightning protection net, and ground wire connectors are connected to both the left and right sides of the lightning protection net.

[0010] Furthermore, a lightning rod is connected to the lightning protection net.

[0011] Furthermore, an external ground wire is connected to the ground wire connector, and the electricity received by the lightning rod is transferred through the ground wire.

[0012] The utility model has the following advantages: The utility model covers and protects the transformer through the first insulating housing, and conducts secondary protection on the transformer through the second insulating housing. When lightning strikes the transformer, the lightning rod and lightning arresters will collect the received lightning, and then transfer the lightning to the ground through the ground wire, achieving the effect of preventing overvoltage from damaging the insulation system of the transformer, while protecting the transformer from overvoltage damage, avoiding short circuit or electric shock accidents, keeping the interior clean and dry, and extending the service life of the transformer.
