[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-256847 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0004] Because bushings are long in the axial direction of the conductor, metal parts are sometimes used to level them when connecting them to gas-insulated switchgear. The metal parts for leveling prevent short circuits caused by arcs between the bushing terminals and the tank of the instrument transformer. The metal parts for leveling can be omitted if the bushing is made shorter. However, if metal parts for leveling are not used, there is a possibility that the bushing terminals will short circuit with the tank of the instrument transformer due to arcs. [Means for solving the problem]
[0005] One aspect of the present invention is a bushing for insulating a conductor for electrically connecting the gas-insulated switchgear to an instrument transformer that monitors voltage and current in the gas-insulated switchgear. The bushing includes a bushing body. The bushing includes a terminal for connection to the instrument transformer. The bushing includes an electric field relaxation conductor that is provided between the bushing body and the terminal and relaxes an electric field relative to the terminal. The electric field relaxation conductor is disk-shaped. A side surface of the electric field relaxation conductor protrudes outward beyond the terminal. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

FIG. 2 is a plan view showing an example of how the U-phase bushing 100U, W-phase bushing 100W, and V-phase bushing 200 are used. The U-phase bushing 100U, W-phase bushing 100W, and V-phase bushing 200 are devices that insulate conductors for electrically connecting a gas-insulated switchgear G1 and an instrument transformer VC. The gas-insulated switchgear G1 uses sulfur hexafluoride gas as an insulating medium to provide high-voltage electrical switching functionality with a compact design. The instrument transformer VC is a current and voltage transformer used with a watt-hour meter, a reactive watt-hour meter, or a maximum demand watt-hour meter.
[0009] The potential transformer VC comprises a current transformer C1 and a voltage transformer VT. The current transformer C1 is a transformer that transforms a certain current value into a current value proportional to it. The voltage transformer VT is a transformer that transforms a certain voltage value into a voltage value proportional to it. The current transformer C1 and voltage transformer VT are housed in the tank T1 of the potential transformer VC and are immersed in insulating oil. The insulating oil is a medium that provides insulating and cooling functions. In other words, the potential transformer VC is an oil-filled potential transformer in which the main parts, such as the current transformer C1 and voltage transformer VT, are immersed in insulating oil. The insulating oil is filled up to around the upper bulkhead UB of the tank T1. Nitrogen gas is sealed above the insulating oil surface.

The V-phase bushing 200 is connected to a transformer VT.

FIG. 4 is a rear view showing an example of the configuration of the UW-phase bushing 100. FIG. 5 is a side view showing an example of the configuration of the UW-phase bushing 100. FIG. 6 is a bottom view showing an example of the configuration of the UW-phase bushing 100. FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view showing an example of the configuration of the UW-phase bushing 100.
[0012] The UW-phase bushing 100 includes a bushing body 110 , a gas-insulated switchgear terminal 120 , a current transformer terminal 130 , and an electric field relaxation conductor 140 .
[0013] The bushing body 110 includes a first central conductor 111 , a second central conductor 112 , an insulator 113 , a shielding portion 114 , and a plurality of mounting portions 115 .
[0014] The first central conductor 111 and the second central conductor 112 are conductors that pass through the center of the UW-phase bushing 100. The first central conductor 111 is an aluminum or copper conductor that allows current to flow from the gas-insulated switchgear G1 to the instrument transformer VC. The first central conductor 111 shown in FIG. 7 is formed in a cylindrical shape. The second central conductor 112 is an aluminum or copper conductor that allows current to flow from the instrument transformer VC to the gas-insulated switchgear G1. The second central conductor 112 shown in FIG. 7 is formed in a rod shape and inserted into the hollow portion of the first central conductor 111. The first central conductor 111 and the second central conductor 112 are insulated from each other by an inter-conductor insulator 116.
[0015] The insulator 113 is disposed around the first central conductor 111 and is a member that serves as the main insulator. The insulator 113 is formed of resin. That is, the UW phase bushing 100 is a resin bushing in which the insulator 113 is made of resin. For example, the insulator 113 is made of epoxy resin. That is, the UW phase bushing 100 is an epoxy resin bushing in which the insulator 113 is made of epoxy resin. The insulator 113 may be made of fiber-reinforced plastic or silicone. The insulator 113 is configured to have a substantially cylindrical outer shape and has a flange portion 113F. The flange portion 113F is disposed on the side surface of the insulator 113, closer to the current transformer C1 than the axial center portion. The radial size of the insulator 113 tapers from the flange portion 113F to both ends.
[0016] The shield portion 114 is a metal member that controls the electric field. For example, the shield portion 114 is made of aluminum or copper. The shield portion 114 is provided in the insulator 113 and spaced apart from the first central conductor 111.

The first member 114A is tin-plated. The mesh size of the first member 114A may vary depending on the type of resin that constitutes the insulator 113. For example, the mesh size of the first member 114A may vary depending on whether the insulator 113 is made of epoxy resin, fiber-reinforced plastic, or silicone. For example, the mesh size of the first member 114A may be set depending on the viscosity of the liquid before the resin that constitutes the insulator 113 hardens. For example, the mesh size of the first member 114A may be increased as the viscosity of the liquid before the resin that constitutes the insulator 113 hardens increases.
[0019] The second member 114B is a member formed in a spiral shape with the circumferential direction of the first member 114A as its axis. The second member 114B is provided on the outside of each open end of the first member 114A. The second member 114B is tin-plated.

The second terminal portion 122 is connected to the second central conductor 112.

The analysis of the potential distribution shown in FIG. 14 reveals that the insulator 213 and the shield portion 214 effectively insulate the center conductor 211. Similar potential distribution results are obtained in the UW-phase bushing 100.

The second member 214B of the shield portion 214 prevents the electric field from wrapping around the outer periphery of the shield portion 214.
