What are the insulation faults of outdoor vacuum reclosers and their solutions?正方型 单相.png

Insulation Faults:

Insulator Flashover:

  • Clean Insulators: For insulators that experience flashover due to surface contamination, regular cleaning is necessary. Specialized insulator cleaning tools, such as insulator cleaning brushes or high-pressure water guns, can be used. After cleaning, anti-flashover coatings can be sprayed on the insulator surfaces to enhance their contamination resistance.

  • Replace Insulators: If insulators show a decrease in insulation strength due to lightning strikes or other reasons, and exhibit obvious cracks or damage, they should be replaced promptly. When replacing insulators, choose ones that meet the voltage and mechanical strength requirements of the equipment.

Insulation Aging:

  • Test Insulation Performance: Use insulation resistance testers, dielectric loss testers, and other equipment to regularly test the insulation performance of insulating materials. When a decline in insulation performance is detected, analyze the causes of aging.

  • Replace Insulation Components: If insulation aging is severe, such as when partial discharge phenomena are observed, aged insulation components (e.g., insulating bushings, insulating supports) should be replaced promptly. Additionally, improve the operating environment of the equipment, such as by enhancing ventilation and reducing humidity, to slow down the aging process of the insulation.

    The rural power grid transformation plays an important role in reducing rural electricity tariffs and accelerating rural economic development. Recently, the author participated in the design of several small-scale rural power grid transformation projects or conventional substations. In rural power grid substations, conventional 10kV systems mostly adopt 10kV outdoor auto circuit vacuum reclosers.To save investment, we adopted a scheme in the transformation that removes the control unit of the 10

    Lightning strikes, fallen tree branches, and even Mylar balloons are enough to interrupt current flow on power lines.

  • Application of Fault Diagnosis Technology for 15kV Outdoor Vacuum Automatic Circuit Reclosers
    According to statistics, the vast majority of faults on overhead power lines are transient, with permanent faults accounting for less than 10%. Currently, medium-voltage (MV) distribution networks commonly employ 15 kV outdoor vacuum automatic circuit reclosers in coordination with sectionalizers. This setup enables rapid restoration of power supply after transient faults and isolates faulty line segments in the event of permanent faults. Therefore, it is essential to monitor the operational sta
