Popis: | Special high-voltage busbar (current carrier) designs are widely used to connect various objects in stations and substations (generators, transformers, switchgear, etc.) and individual components of these systems (e.g., switchgear cells). Connecting various high-voltage objects at stations and substations with flexible wires is a thing of the past; this is now done with rigid non-corona busbars with air insulation, gas-filled current carriers, and current carriers with polymer insulation. In recent years, highly compact busbars have mainly involved the use of new insulating media (primarily gases and polymer dielectrics with high breakdown strengths), along with improvements in the technology for production and application of these materials. Various types of high-voltage busbars are currently in use: shielded air busbars, busbars with cast polymer insulation, sealed shielded busbars with primary insulation by high breakdown-strength gases. Losses in busbars are reduced by using technical solutions employing insulating media with low dielectric constants and the busbars are built to avoid corona at the rated working voltage. The solutions for busbar construction at present have various advantages and disadvantages, depending on the design of the busbar and the object on which it is used. Further improvements in high-voltage busbars will involve the creation of new polymer materials, technologies for their use, and the development and application of new gases with high breakdown strengths. |
