Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grounding trigger gaps, and in particular to a 550kV AC power supply transformer for trigger gaps. Background Technology
[0002] A triggered vacuum gap is a device in the field of electrical engineering, mainly used for quickly isolating high-voltage circuits or conducting large currents. It features a wide operating voltage range and fast conduction speed.
[0003] The trigger gap consists of a vacuum-sealed shell, an anode, a cathode, and a trigger electrode. The vacuum gap between the anode and cathode is the main gap, while the gap between the trigger electrode and the cathode, filled with a dielectric material, is the trigger gap. When a pulse is applied to the trigger electrode, the trigger gap generates metal vapor plasma, which is rapidly injected into the main gap to form a glow discharge, achieving high-voltage isolation or high-current conduction.
[0004] Trigger gaps are commonly used in high-voltage pulse devices, fast high-current switches, and nuclear fusion experimental devices, possessing characteristics such as high-voltage isolation, rapid conduction, and radiation resistance. For example, in ultra-high-voltage direct current (UHVDC) projects, this technology is used in controllable self-recovering energy dissipation devices to meet the requirements of rapid control and high reliability.
[0005] Currently, existing trigger gaps mainly rely on electric arcs to achieve current flow. The generation of electric arcs inevitably burns the electrodes, which is even more serious under high voltage and high current. Utility Model Content
