For distributed equipment, such as transformers or rotating machines, the related effects, such as dispersion, attenuation, reflection, etc. already hamper partial discharge measurements in the frequency range of the IEC60270. Onsite measurements and monitoring often require using higher frequencies, where these effects have an even higher impact. This paper describes the different effects and their impact on measurement techniques.","PeriodicalId":211666,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Diagnostics in Electrical Engineering (Diagnostika)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129301168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to their exposed mounting location, the sensors experience severe environmental influences. This leads to erosion and ageing of components which result in drifting standard values. Therefore, online tracking of standard values is paramount to guarantee optimal performance. An algorithm has been developed by fusing measurement data across several sensors during their steady-state. The system is able to track drifting standard values by using long-term memory. Simulations show that the algorithm successfully differentiates between measured data and drift of standard values. Simulations have been verified by applying the algorithm to real-world data of several months. Results show that the algorithm is able to track the drift of standard values, thereby maintaining full sensitivity.","PeriodicalId":211666,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Diagnostics in Electrical Engineering (Diagnostika)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128908426","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The resistivity of adhesive joints depends on properties of adhesive, on material and surface quality of connected parts and on a curing schedule of the adhesive. The work is focused on examination the joint resistance in dependence on these parameters. Three types of adhesives with isotropic electrical conductivity have been used for experiments. Adhesives have been applied by stencil printing on the pads having copper and gold surface finish. The joints have been formed by adhesive assembly of jumpers of the type 1206. The strips formed by printing of adhesive between two neighboring pads have also been prepared and measured. Influence of additional curing of the joints on their resistance has been tested with negative results. The results have shown that the joints resistance is dominantly influenced by the curing schedule.","PeriodicalId":211666,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Diagnostics in Electrical Engineering (Diagnostika)","volume":"113 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134432362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During the course of their operation, transformers are subjected to huge electrical and thermal stresses due to which insulation oil inside the transformer is highly degraded. The degradation of insulation oil leads to catastrophic transformer failure which further leads to power system network failure. Hence proper inspection and regular examination of transformer insulation oil is required for smooth and reliable operation of power system. In this research work, insulation oil samples from in-service transformers were taken and analyzed and the results were compared with same grade fresh mineral oil. Absorption spectroscopy techniques e.g. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and UV-Visible Spectroscopy were adopted to analyze the insulation oil degradation. The outcome of absorption of aged transformer oil is so significant that absorption increased by observable margin over a wide range of wavelengths. Chemical characterization results highlight that huge amounts of impurities are added to the insulation oil that tend to highly degrade the oil and decrease useful service life of transformer. Hence a proper inspection of the most important part of transformer i.e. insulation oil is required on regular basis.","PeriodicalId":211666,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Diagnostics in Electrical Engineering (Diagnostika)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114291412","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of more essential problems in a power network is a problem of excessive reactive power flows. That problem can be solved by installation of additional sources of reactive power in a power network. With such the solution of the mentioned problem there is associated the following question: Which buses should be considered for installation of additional sources of reactive power? That question can be replaced by the following one: At which buses are there bus reactive powers having the largest impact on reactive power flow in the power network? The paper presents original answer to that question. Using investigation of correlational relationships between bus reactive powers and reactive power flows on branches, the proposed method enables to find the seeked bus reactive powers. In the paper, after theoretical background is outlined, the principle of the new method is given. Next, the case study for reactive power flow in the IEEE 14-bus test system is described.
