XIAO Dai-bo1, ZHANG Xin2. Comparison on Three Different Pollution Methods of Composite Insulators[J]. High voltageapparatus, 2011, 47(2): 48-52. DOI: 10.13296/j.1001-1609.hva.2011.02.011.
Comparison on Three Different Pollution Methods of Composite Insulators
Several different polluted methods to conduct the insulator flashover performance research are recommended by IEC and China
but the differences between the polluted methods have not been pointed out.Based on the composite insulator
the quantitative brushing method
dipping method and spraying method were compared.The results indicate that
according to the AC pollution tests
the voltage achieved by the quantitative brushing method is about 4.02%
7
.73% higher than spraying method
and quantitative brushing method is about 7.66%
1
3.19% higher than dipping method.It is found that the quantitative brushing method and dipping method have each’s characteristic and the appropriate polluted methods should be chosen according to the specific circumstances of the
test.The spraying method does not apply to the composite insulator.
