Abstract
- The electric field distribution of the oil-pressboard structure under impulse voltage provides vital reference for the design of transformer insulation. The electric field distribution under impulse voltage is usually held equivalent to that of the capacitive field and calculated by simulation software. An appropriate margin to the calculation results is then selected according to the allowable strength. The design value identified in such a manner, however, falls short of support and verification of actual measurement. The present paper proposes a non-contact real-time measuring method to explore the electric field distribution of the oil-pressboard structure under impulse voltage, using a created measuring apparatus that is composed of optical system, photoelectric converter device, sealed cavity, and impulse voltage generator. Calibrated and verified by a pair of plate electrodes which generated uniform electric field along the propagating direction of the laser beam, the measured values proved to tally well with the actual values of the electric field in terms of both variation trend and numerical value. The minimum sensitivity of the established measuring apparatus was recorded as 3.5 kV/mm and the maximum deviation was 3.6%. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
