在我國,中、低壓母線短路故障中,重(chóng)點設備和人員傷害主要由電弧光引起,然而,我國的大多數中(zhōng)低壓母線沒有設置(zhì)快(kuài)速母(mǔ)線保護,而隻(zhī)是采用(yòng)了簡(jiǎn)單的消弧裝置和變(biàn)壓(yā)器(qì)後備保護。這(zhè)些(xiē)保護智能化較低,動作速度慢,往往會延長故障切除時間,從而進一步擴大設備損壞程度,甚至會(huì)引起“火燒連營”的惡(è)性事故,衝擊變壓器一次運行,影響整個電網的安全運行。
弧光保護(hù)係統是我公司根據國內實(shí)際情況(kuàng),吸收國外電弧光保護的特點,結合行業檢測及保(bǎo)護配置相關規程,自主研發出具有獨特創新技術、具有(yǒu)廣泛實(shí)用性、高可靠性的新型電弧光保護係統。采用弧光檢測和過(guò)電流檢測雙判據原理,具有保護動作速度快、可靠性高等特點。
引(yǐn)起開關櫃弧光(guāng)短路故障的原因很多,一(yī)般分為以下(xià)五類。
1)絕緣故障:主要是櫃(guì)中絕緣材(cái)料爬距不(bú)足,未滿足加強絕緣要求,在髒汙環境,天氣潮(cháo)濕下發生絕緣故障(zhàng)。另外,由於絕緣材料材質缺(quē)陷,運行年限較長的開關櫃,在強電磁場作用下絕緣老化,也可能造成絕緣損壞而導致故(gù)障。
2)載流回路不良:由於一些接頭(tóu)截(jié)麵不夠,緊固螺栓鬆動(dòng),手(shǒu)車櫃觸頭接觸不良,在大電流流過時引(yǐn)起發熱,冒火(huǒ)進(jìn)而引起相間,相對地擊穿等等。
3)外來物體的進入:如(rú)小動物(老(lǎo)鼠等)進入開關櫃內部,或維修人員在(zài)工作完成後(hòu)將工具遺留在開關櫃(guì)內。
4)認為操(cāo)作錯誤:如走錯間隔,誤(wù)操作,未對工作區域進行接地,未對工作區域進行驗電等。
5)係統方麵的原因:如係統容量增大,接(jiē)地方式改變,電纜應用增多,保護及自控裝置配置不當,係統諧振過電壓等(děng)。
開關櫃內的發生短路弧光的功率可高達100MW,電弧燃燒所產生的能量與電弧的燃燒時間及短路電流變化值呈指數倍增長(如下圖所示),燃燒產生的高溫、高(gāo)壓將會逐步摧毀元器件、銅排以及成列的開關櫃(guì),高明亮的(de)弧光和有毒氣體對人體也有巨大的傷害。
要保證設備不受結構性損傷,必須盡量縮短切除時間。
