Apparatus for electrical screening of a high-voltage bushing
View Patent ↗An apparatus for electrical screening of a bushing output of a high-voltage line into an outer wall of an electrical high-voltage device, includes an electrically conductive screen interior and an outer insulation layer, which surrounds the screen interior. A curved circular segment with two limbs in conjunction with a correspondingly shaped barrier system ensures virtually complete electrical screening of corners and edges of a bushing output.
1. An apparatus for electrical screening of a substantially right-angled bushing output of a bushing of a high-voltage line into an outer tank wall of a tank of an electrical high-voltage device, the apparatus comprising:
an electrically conductive screen interior;
an outer insulating layer surrounding said screen interior;
a first limb and a second limb;
a curved circular segment extending around the substantially right-angled bushing output, said curved circular segment extending between the first limb and the second limb;
the first limb extending substantially parallel to an alignment of the bushing and extending around an output cable and into the bushing; and
the second limb extending substantially parallel to an alignment of the tank wall and extending into the tank.
2. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein said screen interior has a tubular cross section.
3. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the screening apparatus is positioned relative to the substantially right-angled bushing output to cause a radius of said curved segment to run through the substantially right angle of the bushing output.
4. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a radius of the curved circular segment is less than four times a length of said limbs.
5. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a radius of the curved circular segment is between 10 mm and 500 mm.
6. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a radius of the curved circular segment is 100 mm.
7. The apparatus according to claim 1 , which further comprises a barrier system having at least one barrier additionally electrically insulating the screening apparatus.
8. The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein said barrier system is configured to be connected to a barrier system to be disposed within at least one of the bushing or a tank.
9. The apparatus according to claim 7 , which further comprises a fixing device for connecting at least one of the screening apparatus or said barrier system to at least one of the tank wall or the bushing.
10. The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein at least one of the screening apparatus or said barrier system for the screening apparatus is formed of segments disposed at defined intervals around the bushing output.
11. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the screening apparatus is disposed around the bushing in the form of a solid body.
12. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein said screen interior is connected to electrical ground and is therefore grounded.
13. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the screening apparatus is at least partially formed of conductive material to be partially interspersed with non-conductive material.
14. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the screening apparatus is formed of a non-conductive carrier material at least partially sheathed with a conductive layer.
