Abstract

The authors investigated the influence of a T-branch on propagation properties of PD-induced electromagnetic (EM) wave measured with ultra high frequency (UHF) sensors in 66 kV and 154 kV gas insulated switchgears (GIS). A low pass filtering (LPF) process for the cutoff frequency of TE11 mode was used to eliminate the higher order mode above TE11 of detected signal. The authors discussed the effects of the T-branch on the positive peak amplitude of the first wave Vp of propagating EM wave after the LPF processing. As a result, TEM mode propagates according to the traveling theory based on the distributed constant circuit with considering the characteristic impedance of the T-branch. In addition, a high pass filtering (HPF) process for the cutoff frequency of TE11 mode was used to eliminate the lower frequency component below TE11 of the detected signal. The authors discussed the effects of the T-branch on the peak to peak amplitude Vpp of propagating EM wave after the HPF processing. The authors compared transmission rate THS of propagating EM wave after HPF processing through T-branch in a straight direction with that THR of propagating EM wave after HPF processing turning in a right angle direction at the T-branch. As a result, it was found that THS was larger than THR with the HPF processing.
