Design of a composite diagnostic DC test apparatus for high voltage power cable

고압전력케이블 현장진단시험용 종합 직류시험설비의 검토

Developments of effective and economic diagnostic apparatus for industrial plastic insulated high voltage power cables are in discontented condition still. Some report told that DC high voltage was damaged plastic insulation of a partially aged power cable to lead breakdown easily. But now, we have no alternative tools of DC diagnostic apparatus, and we try to reduce a possibility of hazard DC diagnosis. DC diagnostic apparatus still have many advantages to field cable engineer like low price, portability easy applications and sufficient data. Main hazard of DC diagnosis is excessive hight of applied voltage Recent developments for DC diagnosis use considerably low voltage. But new test methods need special measuring device and manipulator, like high input impedance voltmeter, low leakage current high voltage switches, etc. So that reason, new DC diagnostic devices are normally very expensive and have low efficiency, economically. We try to design a composite test device for 3$\sim$4 newly developed method, have economical benefit th industrial engineer.
