Abstract
The rod-rod air gap electric fields are perfectly symmetrical in all kinds of extremely inhomogeneous electric field while the maximum asymmetry exists in the rod-plane air gap electric field. Other types of uneven electric field air gap breakdown characteristics fit in between. The rod-plane air gap electric field is an important reference for the designing of insulation strength. In this paper, the impact tests of rod-plate air gap are carried out in the field environment of different altitudes. Discharge characteristic curves of switching and lightning impulse at different environmental factors were given. The increases of the 50% discharge voltage of the rod-plane air gap switching impulse and rod-plane air gap lightning impact are larger. The influence of altitude on rod-plane air gap lightning impact is tiny. Through the analysis of test results, the influence mechanism of environmental factors on the discharge characteristics is also discussed.
