METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MONITORING THE LOSS FACTOR OF CAPACITOR BUSHINGS

A method monitors capacitor bushings for an AC mains. The mains has first-third phases, associated with first-third mains lines, capacitor bushings, and mains voltages. Each capacitor bushing has a conductor, surrounded by foil, connecting its mains line. The method includes: at a first instant, for...

Zusammenfassung:A method monitors capacitor bushings for an AC mains. The mains has first-third phases, associated with first-third mains lines, capacitor bushings, and mains voltages. Each capacitor bushing has a conductor, surrounded by foil, connecting its mains line. The method includes: at a first instant, for each phase: a first reference voltage phasor is determined; and a foil voltage present between the respective foil and ground potential is detected and a corresponding first foil voltage phasor is determined; at a second instant, for each of the phases: a second reference voltage phasor is determined; the foil voltage is detected and a second foil voltage phasor is determined; for each capacitor bushing: a loss factor change is calculated based on the respective reference voltages and foil phasors and those of the adjacent capacitive bushing; and a monitoring signal is generated based on a comparison of the loss factor and a tolerance value.
