Mushroom-shaped high voltage electrode
View Patent ↗A high voltage electrode arrangement includes a dome-shaped top portion, a toroid-shaped bottom portion, and an intermediate portion for connecting the top portion and the bottom portion. The intermediate portion includes a lead-trough for receiving high voltage equipment to be interconnected.
1. A high voltage electrode arrangement to withstand higher voltage than spherical electrodes, comprising:
a dome-shaped top portion;
a toroid-shaped bottom portion; and
an intermediate portion for connecting the dome-shaped top portion and the toroid-shaped bottom portion,
wherein the intermediate portion comprises a lead-trough to receive electric equipment to be interconnected, wherein the dome-shaped top portion is ellipsoid-shaped, and a diameter of the dome-shaped top portion is greater than a diameter of the toroid-shaped bottom portion.
2. The high voltage electrode arrangement of claim 1 , wherein the intermediate portion is cylindrical-shaped.
3. The high voltage electrode arrangement of claim 2 , further comprising a cylindrical plate arranged in the toroid-shaped bottom portion, said cylindrical plate circumferentially contacting an inside of the toroid-shaped bottom portion.
4. The high voltage electrode arrangement of claim 2 , wherein the dome-shaped top portion is planar in an x-y-direction at an end of the dome-shaped top portion facing the toroid-shaped bottom portion.
5. The high voltage electrode arrangement of claim 1 , further comprising a cylindrical plate arranged in the toroid-shaped bottom portion, said cylindrical plate circumferentially contacting an inside of the toroid-shaped bottom portion.
6. The high voltage electrode arrangement of claim 5 , wherein the cylindrical plate receives an insulator.
7. The high voltage electrode arrangement of claim 5 , wherein the dome-shaped top portion is planar in an x-y-direction at an end of the dome-shaped top portion facing the toroid-shaped bottom portion.
8. The high voltage electrode arrangement of claim 1 , wherein the dome-shaped top portion is planar in an x-y-direction at an end of the dome-shaped top portion facing the toroid-shaped bottom portion.
9. The high voltage electrode arrangement of claim 1 , further comprising at least one post insulator.
10. The high voltage electrode arrangement of claim 9 , further comprising at least one pedestal insulator on which the at least one post insulator is arranged.
11. The high voltage electrode arrangement of claim 1 , wherein the electric equipment to be interconnected includes one or more of busbars, bushings, transformers, valves, surge arresters and support insulators.
