26、requirements Guide for installation and operation BS EN 60831-2:2014 6 60831-2 IEC:2014 17 Ageing test 17.1 Conditioning 17.1.1 General The temperature of the case during the first part (17.2a) and the third part (17.2c) of the ageing test shall be the highest mean temperature in 24 h (see Table 1,

27、IEC 60831-1:2014) plus the difference between the measured temperature of the case and the cooling air temperature recorded at the end of the thermal stability test carried out on an identical unit. The second part (17.2b) of the ageing test should be performed at room temperature. The two test meth

28、ods indicated below are intended to ensure that the capacitor case temperature is maintained constant during the test. The two methods are considered as being equivalent. The units that are not sealed shall be tested in air, with forced circulation. 17.1.2 Testing in air with forced circulation The

29、capacitor unit is mounted in an enclosure in which heated air is circulated with an air velocity such that temperature variations at any point of the enclosure do not exceed 2 C. The sensitive element of the thermostat regulating the temperature in the capacitor enclosure shall be located on the sur

30、face of the capacitor container, three-quarters of the way up. The capacitor shall be placed in a vertical position with the terminals upright. When many capacitors are tested together, they shall be placed with sufficient clearance between them in order to have sufficient temperature uniformity. Af

31、ter placing the capacitor in the unheated enclosure, the thermostat shall be set at a tempe-rature equal to that indicated in 17.1.1. Then, without energizing the capacitor, the enclosure shall be brought to thermal stability, which shall be deemed to have been reached when the container temperature

32、 of the capacitor has reached the stated temperature with a tolerance of 2 C. The capacitor shall then be energized at the voltage stated in 17.2a). 17.1.3 Testing in a liquid bath The capacitor unit is immersed in a container filled with a liquid which, by appropriate heating, is kept at the temper

33、ature indicated in 17.1.1 during the whole test. This temperature is maintained with a permissible change of 2 C. Care shall be taken to ensure that the temperature in the neighbourhood of the capacitor is within these limits. The capacitor is not energized until it has reached the temperature of th

34、e liquid bath. The capacitor shall then be energized at the voltage stated in 17.2a). Where the terminal insulation, or the insulation of cables permanently attached to the capacitor, is of material that might be damaged by the heating liquid, it is permissible for the BS EN 60831-2:201460831-2 IEC:

35、2014 7 capacitors to be positioned in such a manner that these terminals or cables are just above the surface of the liquid. 17.2 Test sequence Before the test, the capacitance shall be measured as prescribed in 7.1 of IEC 60831-1:2014. The test sequence is in three parts as follows: a) The capacito

36、r shall be energized at a voltage equal to 1,25 UNfor 750 h. Taking the tolerances of the supply voltage into account, this test voltage shall be the average voltage for the whole test duration. b) The capacitor shall then be subjected to 1 000 discharge cycles consisting of: charging the capacitor

37、to a d.c. voltage of 2 UN; discharging the capacitor through an inductance of: %200001=CL in microhenry (H) in which C is the measured capacitance in microfarads (F). The cables used for the external circuit and the inductance shall have a cross-section appropriate to the maximum permissible current

38、 (see Clause 21 of IEC 60831-1:2014). The duration of each cycle shall be 30 s minimum. The connection for this part of the test shall be as described in Clause 16 of IEC 60831-1:2014. c) Repetition of item a). During the whole test sequence the temperature of the case shall be maintained equal to t

39、hat indicated in 17.1.1. In the case of three-phase capacitors, the first and the third parts of the test sequence (items a) and c) shall be carried out with all the phases energized at 1,25 UN. This can be obtained either by using a three-phase source, or by using a monophase source and modifying t

40、he internal capacitor connections. Due to long duration of this test, voltage interruptions may occur unexpectedly. During these interruptions, the capacitor units shall remain in the same test setup and the test time is also interrupted. If power is interrupted to the heating enclosure, the ageing

41、test shall resume with the same starting conditions as described in 17.1.2 or 17.1.3. 17.3 Test requirements During the test no permanent breakdown, open circuit or flashover shall occur. At the end of the test the capacitor shall cool down freely to the ambient temperature and the capacitance shall

42、 then be measured under the same conditions as before the test. The maximum permitted variation of capacitance compared to the values measured before the test shall be 3 % averaged over all the phases and 5 % on one phase. The voltage test between terminals and container shall be carried out with th

43、e same pro-cedures as prescribed in 10.1 of IEC 60831-1:2014. The sealing test shall be repeated as prescribed in Clause 12 of IEC 60831-1:2014. BS EN 60831-2:2014 8 60831-2 IEC:2014 18 Self-healing test This test may be carried out on a complete unit, or on a separate element or on a group of eleme

44、nts that are a part of the unit, provided the element or the elements under test are identical to those used in the unit and their conditions are similar to those they have in the unit. The choice is left to the manufacturer. The capacitor or element shall be subjected for 10 s to an a.c. voltage of

45、 2,15 UNor to a d.c. voltage of 3,04 UN(2,15 UNa.c. peak value). If fewer than five breakdowns occur during this time, the voltage shall be increased slowly until five breakdowns have occurred since the beginning of the test or until the voltage has reached 3,5 UNin a.c or 4,95 UNin d.c. If fewer th

46、an five breakdowns have occurred when the voltage has reached the above stated voltage limit for a time of 10 s, the test shall be finished, if at least one clearing has occurred. If no breakdown has occurred, the test may be continued until at least one breakdown is obtained or may be interrupted a

47、nd repeated on another identical unit or element, at the choice of the manufacturer. Before and after the test, the capacitance and tan shall be measured. No change of the capacitance equal/higher than 0,5 % shall be permitted. The following formula shall be checked: tan 1,1 tan 0+ 1 104, (at 50 or

48、60 Hz) Where tan is the value after the test and tan 0is the value before the test. NOTE 1 Breakdown during the test may be detected by an oscilloscope or by an acoustic or a high-frequency test method. In particular, self-healing breakdown test equipment as shown in Annex A could be used. NOTE 2 Th

49、e test carried out on a part of a unit can facilitate the detection of self-healing breakdown. For polyphase capacitors, the test voltages should be adjusted accordingly. When comparing the results of capacitance and tan measurement obtained before and after the test, two factors should be taken into account: a) the reproducibility of the measurement; b) the fact that an internal change in the dielectric may cause a small change in the capacitance without detrime
