Abstract

A high voltage electromagnetic induction device including: a lead-through device-receiving structure having an opening for receiving a lead-through device, a lead-through device extending through the opening, wherein an internal portion is tapering in a direction along the central axis of the lead-through device away from the opening, and an electrical insulation barrier which is arranged in the lead-through device-receiving structure, arranged around and distanced from the internal portion, and which electrical insulation barrier is tapering in the direction, whereby a duct is formed between the internal surface of the electrical insulation barrier and the external surface of the internal portion of the lead-through device, wherein the electrical insulation barrier is tapering relative to the lead-through device such that the distance between the internal surface of the electrical insulation barrier and the external surface of the lead-through device increases in the direction.

Claims (18)

1. A high voltage electromagnetic induction device comprising:

a lead-through device-receiving structure having an opening for receiving a lead-through device,

the lead-through device extending through the opening, the lead-through device thereby having an external portion extending outside the lead-through device-receiving structure, and an internal portion extending within the lead-through device-receiving structure, wherein the internal portion is tapering in a direction along the central axis of the lead-through device away from the opening, and

an electrical insulation barrier which is arranged in the lead-through device-receiving structure, wherein the electrical insulation barrier is arranged around and distanced from the internal portion, and wherein the electrical insulation barrier is tapering in said direction, whereby a duct is formed between an internal surface of the electrical insulation barrier and an external surface of the internal portion of the lead-through device,

wherein the electrical insulation barrier is tapering relative to the lead-through device such that the distance between the internal surface of the electrical insulation barrier and the external surface of the lead-through device increases in said direction.

2. The high voltage electromagnetic induction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the electrical insulation barrier extends along the majority of the internal portion of the lead-through device.

3. The high voltage electromagnetic induction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the electrical insulation barrier is an innermost barrier relative to the lead-through device.

4. The high voltage electromagnetic induction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the electrical insulation barrier has a smaller tapering angle than the lead-through device.

5. The high voltage electromagnetic induction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the electrical insulation barrier tapers continually in said direction.

6. The high voltage electromagnetic induction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the electrical insulation barrier has a tapering angle which is essentially constant along a majority of the internal portion in said direction.

7. The high voltage electromagnetic induction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the distance between the external surface of the internal portion of the lead-through device and the internal surface of the electrical insulation barrier increases as the electrical insulation barrier and the internal portion taper.

8. The high voltage electromagnetic induction device as claimed in claim 1 , comprising a dielectric liquid, wherein the dielectric liquid is arranged in the duct.

9. The high voltage electromagnetic induction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lead-through device-receiving structure is a turret.

10. The high voltage electromagnetic induction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lead-through device is a bushing.

11. The high voltage electromagnetic induction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the internal surface of any cross-section of the electrical insulation barrier is essentially circular.

12. The high voltage electromagnetic induction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the high voltage electromagnetic induction device is a high voltage DC electromagnetic induction device.

13. The high voltage electromagnetic induction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the high voltage electromagnetic induction device is a power transformer.

14. The high voltage electromagnetic induction device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the high voltage electromagnetic induction device is a reactor.
