The o.1Hz very-low frequency withstand voltage test method has the advantages of small equipment size and low power demand, and is used more and more in the power grid, especially in withstand voltage test. However, the effect of this voltage waveform and the traditional test waveform on the insulation assessment is still unclear. This paper compares the difference between 0.1Hz very-low frequency and DC voltage, resonance voltage and oscillating wave voltage in the withstand voltage test. Research indicates that the 0.1Hz very-low frequency withstand voltage test has good equivalence in cables with mechanical "faults", water tree defects in cables and power frequency, and relatively poor equivalence in terms of needle plate electrode insulation defects.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
