Free metal particle is one of the main defects affecting the safe and stable operation of GIS equipment. In order to further analyze the characteristics of partial discharge produced by metal particles, an independent sealed test model which can simulate real defects is designed in this paper. By adjusting applied voltage, particle size and number of particles, PRPD and n-φ pattern of partial discharge caused by particle defects are characterized. Analysis of the causes of formation of features, especially in the light of particle motion patterns, the transfer and neutralization of charges carried by particles at various stages are elaborated, which provides a reference for the follow-up research and field detection work.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
