Salt fog 시험에서 인가전계에 따른 silicone rubber의 방전전류의 특성

Properties of Discharge Current on Silicone Rubber as Electrical Field in Salt Fog

Recently, high voltage outdoor ploymer insulators have been widely used commercially owing to their excellent electrical and mechanical properties, superior comtamination flashover performance, light weight, easy installation or handing, no maintenance during service, competitive price and so on. compared to porcelaain and glass insulators. For instance, silicone rubber(SR) for polymeric insulators specially has much superior insulating and anti-pollution performance due to its specific hydrophobicity even in severe contaminated environments. We have investigated surface discharge current characteristics of silicone rubbers(SR) for HV outdoor composite insulation specimen under accelerated aging codition using a computer measuring system. The relations of average leakage current and surface discharge current repetition rates and discharge current amplitude, the distribution of discharge current amplitude were studied to investigate electrical conduction of silicone rubber surface with the salt fog condition.
