Abstract:The relevance of studying partial discharge currents (PDC) arising on the surface of suspension insulators of high-voltage overhead power lines (HVPL) is substantiated. Increasing PDC leads to increasing active energy losses and unauthorized shutdowns of high-voltage power lines due to the electric arc overlap of the suspension insulator. A laboratory bench for PDC experimental studying has been developed and manufactured. As a result of experimental studies we have determined static and dynamic characteristic… Show more
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.
