摘要:
An element (30) for detecting internal faults in an insulating gas charged electrical apparatus comprises a substrate (31) disposed in the electrical apparatus charged with an insulating gas, a pair of electrodes (32) disposed on the substrate (31), and a thin metal film (33) covering the pair of electrodes (32) and the exposed surface of the substrate (31). This film (33) is capable of producing fluorides with low conductivity upon reacting with a decomposed gas produced by internal faults of the electrical apparatus. Since the thin metal film (33) exhibits high response characteristics readily in reaction with even a trace amount of a decomposed gas, it is possible to detect at an early time faults occuring in the electrical apparatus, such as a partial discharge or local heating. In addition, a device for detecting internal faults in an insulating gas charged electrical apparatus using the internal fault detection element (30) utilizes an optical signal for transmitting signals. Accordingly, the device is free from electromagnetically induced interference and is capable of remote monitoring by making use of the low level of loss in signal transmission.
摘要:
A lightning arrester monitor which comprises an oxygen gas sensor (10) provided in a lightning arrester having a zinc-oxide-type element made of zinc oxide, the main component thereof, and other oxides added thereto; the oxygen gas sensor (10) measures the oxygen concentration of the element which increases as degradation thereof goes on. The monitor makes it possible to assess degradation of the zinc-oxide-type element with ease, without requiring any complicated electrical circuit for detecting leakage current.
