As an on-site maintenance technician, I frequently deal with electrical, mechanical, and insulation faults in load switches. The following outlines fault manifestations, causes, and solutions:I. Electrical Fault Handling(1) Contact HeatingContact heating is mainly caused by poor contact, insufficient pressure, or three-phase asynchrony. When the contact resistance exceeds 1.5 times the initial value, the temperature rise will exceed the standard in a 40℃ environment. For example, the FW4-10 swit

1. Fault OverviewIn June 2013, a fault occurred in a high - voltage switchgear in operation in a certain urban area, causing a 10kV line to trip. On - site investigation revealed that the faulty switchgear was a pneumatic ring - network high - voltage load switchgear (HXGN2 - 10 type), and the fault characteristic was athree - phase arc short circuit. After isolating the fault and restoring power supply to users, it should be noted that the same type of switchgear in this area, which was put int

As a frontline worker in power distribution operation and maintenance, I deal with load switches daily—they’re the “gatekeepers” of medium - voltage distribution systems, ensuring stable power supply for users. With rapid economic development, the demand for power system safety and reliability keeps rising. Medium - voltage distribution systems are crucial for grid stability, and load switches (as key line - mounted equipment) play a pivotal role. Their ma

As a frontline operator who deals with smart electricity meters daily, I’m well - versed in the design and operational norms of load switches (both internal and external) in these meters. Below, I’ll break down the technical requirements and practical key points based on my on - site experience for easy reference.I. Basic Understanding of Internal and External Load SwitchesIn the type specifications for single - phase and three - phase smart electricity meters (such as enviro

As a front - line technician in loop - network power supply and prefabricated substation operation and maintenance, I deeply understand equipment iteration driven by high - voltage urban expansion. Per theNational Power Supply and Consumption Regulations, for equipment over 250kW or 160kVA transmission capacity, 10(6)kV high - voltage power supply and 220/380V step - down form a necessary pattern, making loop - network units and prefabricated substations key in distribution networks.I.
