22、indicate the presence of contaminants such as water and solid suspended matter, and the advisability of carrying out drying and filtration treatment. The breakdown voltage value of insulating liquids strongly depends on the particular set of conditions used in its measurement. Therefore, standardize

23、d testing procedures and equipment are essential for the unambiguous interpretation of test results. The method described in this International Standard applies to either acceptance tests on new deliveries of insulating liquids, or testing of treated liquids prior to or during filling into electrica

24、l equipment, or to the monitoring and maintenance of oil-filled apparatus in service. It specifies rigorous sample-handling procedures and temperature control that should be adhered to when certified results are required. For routine tests, especially in the field, less stringent procedures may be p

25、racticable and it is the responsibility of the user to determine their effect on the results. 1 Scope This International Standard specifies the method for determining the dielectric breakdown voltage of insulating liquids at power frequency. The test portion, contained in a specified apparatus, is s

26、ubjected to an increasing a.c. electrical field by means of a constant rate of voltage rise until breakdown occurs. The method applies to all types of insulating liquids of nominal viscosity up to350mm 2 s 1at40C. It is appropriate both for acceptance testing on unused liquids at the time of their d

27、elivery and for establishing the condition of samples taken in monitoring and maintenance of equipment. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard.

30、ists of the following units: a) Voltage regulator b) Step-up transformer c) Switching system d) Energy limiting devices Two or more of these units may be integrated in any equipment system. 3.1 Voltage regulator Uniform increase of voltage with time by manual means is difficult and, for this reason,

31、 automatic control is essential. Voltage control may be achieved by one of the following methods: a) Variable ratio auto-transformer b) Electronic regulator c) Generator-field regulation d) Induction regulator e) Resistive type voltage divider 3.2 Step-up transformer The test voltage is obtained by

32、using a step-up transformer supplied from an a.c.(48Hz to62Hz) voltage source whose value is gradually increased. The controls of the variable low-voltage source shall be capable of varying the test voltage smoothly, uniformly and without overshoots or transients. Incremental increases (produced, fo

33、r example, by a variable auto-transformer) shall not exceed2% of the expected breakdown voltage. The voltage applied to the electrodes of the liquid-filled cell shall have an approximately sinusoidal waveform, such that the peak factor is within the following limits:1,41 0,07. The centre-point of th

34、e secondary winding of the transformer should be connected to earth. 3.3 Current-limiting resistors To protect the equipment and to avoid excessive decomposition of the liquid at the instant of breakdown, a resistance limiting the breakdown current may be inserted in series with the test cell. The s

35、hort-circuit current of the transformer and associated circuits shall be within the range of10mA to25mA for all voltages higher than15kV. This may be achieved by a combination of resistors in either or both the primary and secondary circuits of the high-voltage transformer.EN60156:1995 4 BSI 06-1999

36、 3.4 Switching system 3.4.1 Basic requirements The circuit shall be opened automatically if an established arc occurs. The primary circuit of the step-up transformer shall be fitted with a circuit-breaker operated by the current resulting from the breakdown of the sample, and shall break the voltage

37、 within10ms. The circuit may be opened manually if a transient spark (audible or visible) occurs between the electrodes. NOTEThe sensitivity of the current-sensing element depends on the energy-limiting device employed and only approximate guidance can be given. Normally, triggering of cut-off by a

38、current of4mA maintained for5ms is acceptable, while fast energy-limiting (see3.4.2) triggering by a transient current of1A maintained for14s has been found satisfactory. 3.4.2 Special requirements for silicone liquids Silicone liquids can give rise to solid decomposition products through the action

39、 of electric discharges, which may cause gross errors in the observed results. In such cases, all feasible steps shall be taken to minimize the energy available for dissipation in the breakdown discharge. Whilst current limiting as above, combined with isolation of the step-up transformer primary wi

40、thin10ms, is adequate for hydrocarbons. More satisfactory performance for silicone liquids is obtained by short circuiting of the primary circuit of the transformer by a low-impedance or by use of a low-voltage device for detection of breakdown acting within a few microseconds. This device may be of

41、 either analogue (for example, modulating amplifier) or switching (for example, thyristor) type. By the use of this device, the output voltage of the step-up transformer shall be reduced to zero within1ms of detection of breakdown, and shall not thereafter increase again until the next step of the t

42、est sequence is commenced. 3.5 Measuring device For the purpose of this standard, the magnitude of the test voltage is defined as its peak value divided by. This voltage may be measured by means of a peak-voltmeter or by means of another type of voltmeter connected to the input or output side of the

43、 testing transformer, or to a special winding provided thereon; the instrument then used shall be calibrated against a standard up to the full voltage which it is desired to measure. A method of calibration which has been found satisfactory is the use of a transfer standard. This is an auxiliary mea

44、suring device which is connected in place of the test cell between the high-voltage terminals to which it presents the same impedance as the filled test cell. The auxiliary device is separately calibrated against a primary standard, for example, a sphere gap in accordance with IEC52 (see also IEC60)

45、. 4 Test assembly 4.1 Test cell The volume of the cell shall be between350ml and600ml. The cell shall be made of material that is electrically insulating, transparent and chemically inert, resistant to the insulating liquid and the cleaning agents which may be used. The cell shall be provided with a

46、 cover and shall be designed to permit easy removal of the electrodes for cleaning and maintenance. Examples of suitable cell designs are given in Figure 1 and Figure 2. 4.2 Electrodes The electrodes shall be made either of brass, bronze or austenitic stainless steel. They shall be polished and, in

47、shape, either spherical(12,5mm to13,0mm diameter) as shown in Figure 1 or partially spherical of the shape and dimensions given in Figure 2. The axis of the electrode system shall be horizontal, and at least40mm below the surface of the test liquid in the cell. No part of the electrode shall be clos

48、er than12mm to the cell wall or stirrer. The gap between the electrodes shall be2,50mm 0,05mm. The electrodes shall be examined frequently for pitting or other damage, and shall be maintained or replaced as soon as such damage is observed. 4.3 Stirring (optional) The test may be conducted with or wi

49、thout stirring. Differences between tests with or without stirring have not been found statistically significant. Astirrer, however, may be convenient especially with apparatus capable of automatic operation. Stirring may be achieved by means of a two-bladed impeller of effective diameter20mm to25mm, axial depth5mm to10mm, rotating at a speed of250r.p.m to300r.p.m. The impeller shall not entrain air bubbles and preferably rotate in such a direction that the resulting liquid flow is directed downward. It shall be constructed so that it is easily
