These cables become less hydrophobic over time and become vulnerable to dry band arcing.This loss in hydrophobicity is because of the contamination formed on the outer layer due to pollution.This is one of the reasons which cause cable failure.Considerable amount of losses will be incurred on the occurrence of a cable failure as the cables are also leased to other companies.An improved equivalent circuit is used to calculate the voltage and current distribution of the double circuit line.A three-phase single circuit line and a three-phase double circuit line are used to calculate their corresponding voltage distribution and current distribution.The results could be used to predict dry band arcing on similar models.The method used considers sag,span and pollution on ADSS cable.展开更多

Consequently,an optimization structure of rings was proposed by improving the voltage distribution of insulator string and reducing the electric strength of grading ring for the purpose of restricting corona noise,and the onsite observations by UVI showed that the newly manufactured and installed grading ring could obviously avoid the occurrences of corona discharge which validates the optimization design.This paper proposed an effective method combining UVI observation and FEM calculation to study voltage-sharing characteristics of porcelain insulators,and the results can provide experiences and references for the design of 750 kV AC substation.展开更多
