Abstract
In this paper the behavior of partial discharges (PDs) on epoxy insulation under AC and impulse superimposed voltages are experimentally investigated in SF 6 gas. The lightning impulse (LI) and the switching impulse (SI) voltages with different polarity are superimposed on different phases of the AC voltage. PDs are measured by three sensors, a 50 Ω measurement impedance, an ultra-high frequency sensor and a photomultiplier tube. The max PD amplitude, PD pulse number and PD duration under AC voltage after an impulse voltage are summarized and analyzed. The effect of the impulse superposition phase, the impulse type and the impulse polarity on the characteristics of AC PDs are discussed. Results show that after a positive impulse voltage was applied on the positive semi-wave of AC voltage (0 to 180°), PDs in the negative half cycle of the AC voltage can be remarkably excited. A negative impulse voltage was applied on the negative semi-wave (180 to 360°), AC PDs can be initiated in the positive half cycle of AC voltage. PDs excited by a LI voltage is severe than excited by a SI. PDs excited by a positive impulse is intense than excited by a negative impulse.
