Abstract

Optical fiber has great potential in the development of online monitoring for trans-formers. In this paper, the electrical aging test of fiber sheath material based on a gradual voltage-rising method was performed and the influence of thermal aging on electrical aging was determined. Compared to the oil-paper insulation performance of traditional transformers, it was found that ethylene tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and Polyamide 12 (PA 12) were better than oil-paper. Statistical analysis of the ETFE material and oil-paper test data was conducted using double-parameter Weibull distribution. The inverse power and exponential functions were used to fit the experimental data and voltage tolerance coefficients of the ETFE material were obtained. Experimental results show the parameters of the ETFE model in the inverse power function and exponential function model are better than those of the oil paper insulation, and the sheathed fiber is ETFE that can be stably operated in the transformer.
