Abstract

A high-voltage bushing with conductive inserts for a DC voltage has a bushing body surrounding a high-voltage conductor and containing a paper insulation. The bushing body tapers conically, at least at one end region thereof, from a ground-potential-side location to a high-voltage-side end and is surrounded by an insulating barrier. In order to provide a high-voltage bushing of this type with a particularly good potential distribution, the outside of the bushing body is coated at least in the region of the at least one end region with a coating to form a coating layer, which has a greater electrical conductivity than the bushing body.

Claims (12)

1. A high-voltage bushing for a DC voltage, comprising:

conductive inserts;

a high-voltage conductor;

an insulation barrier; and

a bushing body surrounding said high-voltage conductor, said bushing body formed of a wound paper insulation and said conductive inserts for a DC voltage, said bushing body tapering conically, at least at one end region thereof, from a ground-potential-side location to a high-voltage-side end and surrounded by said insulation barrier, said bushing body having an outer side coated at least in a region of said at least one end region with a coating forming a coating layer, said coating layer having a greater electrical conductivity than said bushing body.

2. The high-voltage bushing according to claim 1 , wherein the electrical conductivity of said coating layer is approximately two orders of magnitude greater than that of said bushing body.

3. The high-voltage bushing according to claim 1 , wherein said paper insulation of said bushing body is impregnated with an epoxy resin.

4. A method for producing a high-voltage bushing, which comprises the steps of:

providing a bushing body surrounding a high-voltage conductor, the bushing body formed from a paper insulation and conductive inserts for a DC voltage, the bushing body formed tapering conically, at least at one end region thereof, from a ground-potential-side location to a high-voltage-side end and surrounded by an insulation barrier; and

coating an outer side of the bushing body at least in the region of the at least one end region with a coating for forming a coating layer, the coating layer having a greater electrical conductivity than the bushing body.

5. The method according to claim 4 , which further comprises providing the coating layer with an electrical conductivity which is approximately two orders of magnitude greater than that of the bushing body.

6. The method according to claim 4 , which further comprises impregnating the paper insulation with an epoxy resin.
