Abstract

The radio interference voltage occurring as so-called corona effects on current paths of air insulated high voltage disconnectors and earthing switches will be introduced and the need, the effect, and the realization of accordingly corona shielding of current path features of air insulated high voltage disconnectors and earthing switches will be discussed. Both is included, the requirements as per international standards and requirements by customers beyond international standards, as those are the principal motivation for investigating in the effects of radio interference voltage and its limitation. The reasons for corona effects and the shielding functionality for reduction of those effects will be elaborated. Challenges and limits of different types of shielding will be described, which covers the mounting and its items, and emphasizes not only mechanical stress risks, but also the possible complexity of potentially necessary shielding arrangements. Also, the type testing for the corona effects will be mentioned and includes aspects of the market or by customers beyond IEC standard needs, so that not only keeping limits is important, but also to understand inception and deception. Additionally, numerical methods to solve the necessary field calculations of corona effects and effects of shielding will be described. Finally practical examples will be given for different corona shielding applications on current paths of center break disconnectors, which includes details for additional functionality of corona shielding providing the possibility to cover additional product requirements and therefore increasing the product marketability without increasing material consumption of the product. In conclusion the benefit of sophisticated investigation is highlighted and intends to promote the same, overcoming cost and efforts hurdles and best practices based on application experiences only.
