Analysis on Corona Discharge Characteristics of the Overhead Conductor

Abstract:

LGJ150/25 steel core aluminum stranded wires were selected as the test wires, and the aeolian vibrations which work in different cycle times of wire that is under the conditions of dry and acidic corrosion were simulated by the self-made test bed. The electronic number of corona discharge of each pre-set conductor was measured, when applying AC high voltage on the wearing wires step by step,so that the corona inception voltages of the conductors could be confirmed. And the effect of the vibration cycle times and environmental conditions on the corona discharge was researched. Taking the sum of all aluminium stands wear area of a pre-set wire as the fretting wearing capacity, the relationship between the wire wearing capacity and the corona discharge was studied. The results indicate that the corona inception voltages of the conductors decrease with the increase of the cycle times and the wires wear capacity. In general, the wear capacity of the acidic corrosion conductors is larger, and its corona inception voltage is lower. Therefore the decrease of the conductor fretting wear can effectively reduce the corona loss of transmission lines and other hazards.
