Causes of Dielectric Withstand Failure in Vacuum Circuit Breakers: Surface contamination: The product must be thoroughly cleaned before dielectric withstand testing to remove any dirt or contaminants.Dielectric withstand tests for circuit breakers include both power-frequency withstand voltage and lightning impulse withstand voltage. These tests must be performed separately for phase-to-phase and pole-to-pole (across the vacuum interrupter) configurations.Circuit breakers are recommended to be t

There are many taboos and problematic practices in the installation of distribution boards and cabinets that must be noted. Especially in certain areas, improper operations during installation may lead to serious consequences. For cases where the precautions were not followed, some corrective measures are also provided here to remedy previous mistakes. Let’s follow along and take a look at common installation taboos from manufacturers regarding distribution boxes and cabinets!1. Taboo: Lighting

Overhaul Items for Transformer Conservator:1. Ordinary-Type Conservator Remove the end covers on both sides of the conservator, clean rust and oil deposits from inner and outer surfaces, then apply insulating varnish to the inner wall and paint to the outer wall; Clean components such as the dirt collector, oil level gauge, and oil plug; Check that the connecting pipe between the explosion-proof device and the conservator is unobstructed; Replace all sealing gaskets to ensure good sealing with n

Based on years of field statistics on switchgear accidents, combined with analysis focusing on the circuit breaker itself, the main causes have been identified as: failure of operation mechanism; insulation faults; poor breaking and closing performance; and poor conductivity.1.Failure of Operation MechanismFailure of operation mechanism manifests as delayed operation or unintended operation. Since the most basic and important function of a high-voltage circuit breaker is to operate correctly and

1. Induced Lightning OvervoltageInduced lightning overvoltage refers to the transient overvoltage generated on overhead distribution lines due to nearby lightning discharges, even when the line is not directly struck. When a lightning flash occurs in the vicinity, it induces a large amount of charge on the conductors—opposite in polarity to the charge in the thundercloud.Statistical data shows that lightning-related faults caused by induced overvoltages account for approximately 90% of total fau

Error Tolerance of Total Harmonic Distortion (THD): A Comprehensive Analysis Based on Application Scenarios, Equipment Accuracy, and Industry StandardsThe acceptable error range for Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) must be evaluated based on specific application contexts, measurement equipment accuracy, and applicable industry standards. Below is a detailed analysis of key performance indicators in power systems, industrial equipment, and general measurement applications.1. Harmonic Error Standar
