1-12

Using cardiac pacemaker

Physical processes during operation of high voltage may endanger persons

wearing a cardiac pacemaker when near these high voltage facilities.

Firefighting in electrical installations

• According to regulations, carbon dioxide (CO2) is required to be

used

as extinguishing agent for fighting fire in electrical installations.

•

Carbon dioxide is electrically non conductive and does not leave

residues. It is safe to be used in energized facilities as long as the

minimum distances are maintained. A CO2 fire

extinguisher must be

always available within electrical installations.

•

If, contrary to the regulations, any other extinguishing agent is used

for fire fighting, this may lead to damage at the electrical installation.

Megger disclaims any liability for cons

equential damage.

Furthermore, when using a powder extinguisher near high-

voltage

installations, there is a danger that the operator of the fire

extinguisher will get an electrical shock from a voltage arc-

over (due

to the powder dust created).

• It is essen

tial to observe the safety instruction on the extinguishing

agent.

• Applicable is DIN VDE 0132.

WARNING

Dangers when working with high voltage

Working on high voltage systems and equipment – especially in non-

stationary operation – requires particular care and safety-

conscious action

on the part of test personnel. VDE regulations 0104 on setting up and

operating electrical test systems, as well as EN 50191 and national

standards and regulations must be strictly adhered to.

• The test system generates a da

ngerous test voltage of up to 40

resp. 60 kV

2. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

2.1 Description of the Functions

The test and diagnosis system TDS40/60 enables the standard-compliant testing of

medium voltage cables and other equipment with a 0.1 Hz cosine rectangular test

voltage of up to 40 kV

PEAK

or 60 kV

PEAK

.

With the help of such a cable test, operation-endangering faults as well as insulation

faults (e.g. water tree damages in PE/XLPE cables or local damages in PILC cables) can

be safely brought to failure. Due to the integrated breakdown detection, this test process

takes place without damage to the fault-free cable insulation.

In combination with the partial discharge measurement system PDS 60, the TDS40/60

forms a fully adequate diagnosis system (TDS NT) which is suitable for the partial

discharge diagnosis on medium voltage cables according to the standards. In this stage

of expansion the system is operated by remote control and can be operated in the VLF or

DAC (damped AC) mode.

This manual solely describes the operation of the test and diagnosis system

TDS40/60 in the stand-alone test operation. For info

rmation regarding the

connection of the partial discharge measurement system PDS

60 and the remote

operation of the system please read the manual of the PDS 60.

2.5 Description of the Test Procedure with VLF-Voltage

Because of the space charges formed in the dielectric of the cable, DC test methods

prove to be dangerous when applied to PE and VPE cables and should therefore never

be used on such types of cables.

Nowadays we can take it for granted that the 0.1 Hz VLF method for testing cables with

plastics insulation outclasses any other test method using DC voltage or power-

frequency AC voltage as used so far.

A 0.1 Hz VLF test system must meet the following demands:

• The repetition rate has to be so low, that the power that is set free in any

existing PD-channel (PD = partial discharge) is small enough not to cause

further erosion and so increase gas pressure.

• The inversion of polarity, on the one hand, must be slow enough to

exclude any transients caused by travelling waves. On the other hand, it

must be fast enough that any space charge at the tip of a PD-channel from

where it grows in the direction of the opposite electrode is preserved.

A system that meets these requirements has to supply a 0.1 Hz oscillation, with the quick

polarity reversal taking place within a frequency close to the power frequency.

(see below)

2-17

Another vital characteristic to be considered when designing this system was to ensure

simple on-site testing by

- small dimensions,

- light weight and

- low power consumption.

Every cycle starts with a charging phase in which the test object as well as the back-up

capacitor switched in parallel are charged from a DC source until the desired test voltage

is reached.

Fig. 2: Shape of 0.1 Hz cosine-rectangular VLF voltage (type Plus)

After a period of 5 seconds, the voltage source will be disconnected from the system

resp. discharged via a resistance.

Subsequently, the polarity reversal is initiated. The test voltage changes its polarity from

minus to plus.

Depending on the size of capacitance of the connected test object, time of the polarity

reversal is between 1 and 17 ms.

Due to the losses which occur during the polarity inversion, the positive voltage is always

decreased by these losses.

After a 5 seconds dwelling period at positive polarity (device option Basis) or equalisation

of the polarity reversal losses due to recharging by the positive DC voltage source

(device option Plus), the return to negative polarity takes place.

The negative voltage source is reconnected to the test object.

2-18

The loss of voltage caused by twice changing the polarity (device option Basis) will now

be compensated for by recharging with the negative DC source. In contrast to this at the

device option Plus the losses of a polarity reversal are immediately compensated.

The back-up capacitor has the following tasks:

- It slows the ring-around event down to the ms range even for short cables,

- It compensates a part of the losses during the polarity reversal.
