High voltage condenser bushing is one of the important component that is widely used in the high voltage system. At high voltage levels more than 52kV the distribution of electric field in condenser bushing is irregular between the lead conductor and the grounded metallic flange. This paper studied the effects of changing in both: the number layers of aluminum foils and Oil impregnated Paper (OIP), increasing the length of aluminum foils layers, and also increasing the thickness of OIP layer on the distribution of electric potential and electric field in condenser bushing by using Finite Element Method (FEM) and built the bushing model in ANSYS software. The harmonic analysis was performed of the bushing model at maximum value of withstand voltage test at 50Hz, from the analysis results are obtained the maximum value of electric field on the inner and outer surface of the bushing, the obtained electric field values were good and acceptable compared to the permissible electrical stress values of the dielectric insulators. This work can also aid in the design of high voltage bushing stress control, a knowledge of the electrical field distribution in bushing geometry. Moreover the results of analysis are shown as contour plots, graphs plotted, and tables.

Ιn medium voltage cables, the stress control layers play an important part in controlling the electric field distribution around the medium voltage underground cable terminations. Underground cable accessories, used in medium voltage cable systems, need a stress control tube in order to maintain and control the insulation level which is designed for long life times. The term “electrical stress control” refers to the cable termination analysis of optimizing the electrical stress in the area of insulation shield cutback to reduce the electrical field concentration at this point in order to reduce breakdown in the cable insulation. This paper presents the effect of some materials of different relative permittivities and geometrical regulation with the curved shape stress relief cones on the electric field distribution of cable termination. The optimization was done by comparing the results of eight materials used. Also, the effect of the change in the thickness of the stress control tube is presented. The modeling design is very important for engineers to find the optimal solution of terminator design of medium voltage cables. This paper also describes the evolution of stress control systems and their benefits. A developed program using Finite Element Method (FEM) has calculated a numerical study to the stress control layering electric field distribution.

Maximum Electric Field

The most important aspect influencing the circumstance and characteristics of electrical discharges is the distribution of electric field in the gap of electrodes. The study of discharge performance requires details on the variation of maximum electric field around the electrode. In electrical power system, the insulation of high voltage power system usually subjected with high electric field. The high electric field causes the degradation performance of insulation and electrical breakdown start to occur. Generally, the standard sphere gaps widely used for protective device in electrical power equipment. This project is study about the electric field distribution and current density for different electrode configuration with XLPE barrier. Hence, the different electrode configuration influences the electric field distribution. This project mainly involves the simulation in order to evaluate the maximum electric field for different electrode configuration. Finite Element Method (FEM) software has been used in this project to perform the simulation. This project also discusses the breakdown characteristics of the XLPE. The accurate evaluation of electric field distribution and maximum electric field is an essential for the determination of discharge behavior of high voltage apparatus and components. The degree of uniformity is very low for pointed rod-plane when compared to other two electrode configurations. The non- uniform electric distribution creates electrical stress within the surface of dielectric barrier. As a conclusion, when the gap distance between the electrodes increase the electric field decrease.

Nonlinear insulated materials can uniform electric field distribution in non-uniform electric field. In order to inhibit the electric tree initiation and propagation inside high-voltage cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulated cable, a kind of 220kV high-voltage XLPE insulated cable with new structure is designed by embedding nonlinear shielding layer into XLPE insulation layer of high-voltage cable with traditional structure in this study. Experimental and simulation results indicate that the nonlinear shielding layer can effectively inhibit electrical tree propagation inside the XLPE specimens, and obviously extend the breakdown time caused by electric tree propagation. When the electrical tree propagates into the nonlinear shielding layer sandwiched between insulation layers of cable, the electric field distribution near the tip of electrical tree is obviously improved. These findings prove the feasibility and the effectivity of inhibiting electrical tree propagation inside high-voltage cable by adding nonlinear shielding layer into the insulation layer.

Dc Stress

The influx of a switching impulse during DC steady-state operations causes severe electrical stress on the insulation of HVDC cables. Thus, the insulation should be designed to withstand a superimposed switching impulse. All major manufacturers of DC cables perform superimposed switching impulse breakdown tests for prequalification. However, an experimental approach to study space charge dynamics in dielectrics under a switching impulse superposed on DC voltage has not been reported yet. This is because, unlike the DC stress, it is not possible to study the charge dynamics experimentally under complex stresses, such as switching impulse superposition. Hence, in order to predict and investigate the breakdown characteristics, it is necessary to obtain accurate electric field distribution considering space charge dynamics using a numerical approach. Therefore, in this paper, a numerical study on the switching impulse superposition was carried out. The space charge dynamics and its distribution within the dielectric under DC stress were compared with those under a superimposed switching impulse using a bipolar charge transport (BCT) model. In addition, we estimated the effect of a superimposed switching impulse on a DC electric field distribution. It was concluded that the temperature conditions of dielectrics have a significant influence on electric field and space charge dynamics.

Numerical calculation model with compound insulation of transient electric field is given. The insulation is more prominent due to complication for voltage applied on valve side winding of the converter transformer. So the simplied structure for electric calculation on the valve side winding of the converter transformer is established. The electric field distribution characteristics on the valve side winding of the converter transformer is analyzed and electric fields in different resistivity and permittivity are calculated under AC high voltage, DC high voltage, AC superimposed DC voltage, polarity reversal voltage. The maximum electric field intensity is calculated and analyzed under kinds of high voltage. Some important influence factors for electric field distribution are also discussed in this paper.

For a sinusoidal alternating current (AC) external field of finite frequency ω , the local electric field distribution at all harmonics has been investigated by graded cylindrical composites with power-law gradient inclusions. In the dilute limit, the obtained results show that the local electrical field distribution in the cylindrical inclusion region is controllable and the electric field peak’s position inside the cylindrical composites can be confined at its centre by varying the parameters of the graded dielectric profiles.
