  • Page 44: Operation

    OPERATION 3.1. Start-Up Before the equipment is put into operation, the usual safety regulations governing the operation of high-voltage equipment must be complied with. The equipment carries high voltage and its operation demands detailed knowledge of the information contained in the user manual. All equipment components should be moved without hoists.
  • Page 45 The operating ground terminal should be connected directly to the cable sheath. The protective ground terminal should be laid to the ground potential where the operator is (frame ground) for safety reasons. The operation unit and high-voltage unit should be connected with the cable provided. Care must be taken that there is a large enough safety gap between the two units.
  • Page 46: Minimum Distances When Setting Up Equipment

    Minimum distances when setting up equipment N.B.: The distances in brackets apply exclusively to the T 26/1 A set. When setting up the equipment, care must be taken that there is a gap of at least 1.2 m (1 m) between the live parts.

    Horizontal set-up Hook one end of the liquid resistor into the slot of the corona cover with the bolt and place the other end on the bipod. The liquid resistor must be checked for gas bubbles before the equipment is put into operation. If gas bubbles have formed, turn the liquid resistor upright and allow the bubbles to rise.

    Si 3 automatic cut-out (10 A B10) for thyristor inverter N.B.: If this is triggered during operation, the unit must be switched off before the automatic cut-out is switched back on [3]. [10] Control lamp for overheating of high-voltage transformer (T 26/1 A) or thyristor (T 26/1 B).
  • Page 51 [11] Timer, adjustable up to 60 minutes a) set the high voltage to the required value b) set the timer to the right test time The high voltage is switched off when the timer runs out. [12] Rough voltage setting This adjuster must be turned as far anticlockwise as it will go before the high voltage is switched on, otherwise start-up will not be possible.
  • Page 52 [17] Button switch with indicator lamp for measuring range selection. One of the measuring ranges must be selected before the high voltage is switched on [20]. a) Automatic measuring range switching for the 0.1 mA, 1 mA, 10 mA and 100 mA ranges. The active measuring range is indicated by the button lamp lighting up.

    3.3. Performing measurements with the T 26/1 A 3.3.1. Cable testing N.B.: If surge or burn mode is to be used repeatedly, compact installation in a measuring van or on a measuring pallet is recommended. This would include all the safety devices such as excess voltage protection, etc.
  • Page 55: Directions

    If the test power is not sufficient after cable charging, press the mode switch [21] and turn to test = mode (see 3.2. [21]). Preset timer [11] to required time. Press button [20] and set voltage to required value with the voltage adjusters [12] and [14].
  • Page 56 The charging current during running up and the test discharge current are very different. However, automatic current measuring range switching ensures that the right current measuring range is always selected. The operator can concentrate fully on the voltage setting. The required test time can be preset using the timer [11]. See section 3.2.
  • Page 57: Surging

    A liquid resistor is not suitable. A capacitor unit with working and protective spark gaps is connected to the high-voltage output of the T 26/1 A. The protective spark gap must be parallel to the capacitor and the working spark gap must be between capacitor and cable (see fig.
  • Page 58: Burning

    The protective spark gap must be set to the maximum permitted voltage for the cable or surge capacitor. The faultless functioning of the protective spark gap must be tested beforehand with the working spark gap well apart. The necessary flashover voltage, i.e. surge voltage, is set with the working spark gap, while the voltage setting on the operation unit determines the surge rate.

    3.4. Performing measurements with the T 26/1 B 3.4.1. Cable testing 3.4.1.1. Directions in brief Connect switch box for T 26/170 B warning device to connection [1]. A corona shield must be fitted for equipment configurations of 400 kV and above. Connect protective grounds, connecting cables and mains lead.
  • Page 60: Directions

    Switch to test mode (press button [21]). For a more detailed description see section 3.4.1.2. Preset timer [11] to required time. Set voltage to required test value with the voltage adjusters [12] and [14]. 3.4.1.2. Directions N.B.: The H 913 corona shield must be fitted before start-up, as otherwise there will be a risk of flashovers.
  • Page 61 The required test time can be preset using the timer [11]. See section 3.2. [11]. When this time expires, the equipment shuts down automatically. To make it possible to ascertain later whether the equipment was shut down earlier by excess current triggering, the control lamp [15] will remain on in this eventuality until the equipment is restarted or switched off.
  • Page 62: Measurement Up To 650 Kv

    3.4.2. Measurement up to 650 kV The T 26/1 B test set should be set up as shown in fig. 5. Care must be taken that live parts of the equipment, including the connecting hose, have a large enough safety gap of at least 2 m to grounded parts.

  • Page 66: Care, Maintenance And Repair

    CARE, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR 4.1. Care and maintenance The HV test set requires no maintenance. The housing surfaces and controls should be cleaned with a mild cleaning agent. Naphtha, acetone, lyes or similar agents must not be used under any circumstances, as they attack the housing surfaces and possible equipment failure cannot be ruled out.
