34、008 INTRODUCTION Composite line post insulators consist of a cylindrical solid insulating core, bearing the mechanical load, protected by a polymeric housing, the loads being transmitted to the core by metal fittings. Despite these common features, the materials used and the construction details emp

35、loyed by different manufacturers may be different. Some tests have been grouped together as “design tests“, to be performed only once on insulators which satisfy the same design conditions. All the design tests defined in IEC 62217 are applied for composite line post insulators; additional specific

36、mechanical tests are given in this standard. As far as practical, the influence of time on the electrical and mechanical properties of the components (core material, housing, interfaces, etc.) and of the complete composite insulators has been considered in specifying the design tests to ensure a sat

37、isfactory life-time under normally known stress conditions of transmission lines. Composite insulators are used in both a.c. and d.c. applications. In spite of this fact a specific tracking and erosion test procedure for d.c. applications as a design test has not yet been defined and accepted. The 1

38、 000 h a.c. tracking and erosion test of IEC 62217 is used to establish a minimum requirement for the tracking resistance of the housing material. The approach for mechanical testing under bending loads used in this standard is based on the work of CIGRE 11. This approach uses the concept of a damag

39、e limit which is the maximum stress which can be developed in the insulator before damage begins to occur. Annex A gives some notes on the mechanical loads and tests used in this standard. Line post insulators are often used in braced structures whose geometry varies from line to line. A combined lo

40、ading test to reproduce the complex loading cases in such structures is outside the scope of this standard and it would be very difficult to specify a general test which covers the majority of geometry and loading cases. In order to give some guidance, Annex B explains how to calculate the moment in

41、 the insulators resulting from combined loads. This moment can then be equated to an equivalent bending load or stress for design purposes. Further information is available from CIGRE 2. Compression load tests are not specified in this standard. The mechanical loads expected from service stress acti

42、ng on line post insulators are mostly combined loads. These loads will cause some deflection on the insulator. Compression loads applied on pre-deflected insulators will lead to results largely dependent on the pre-deflection. Therefore a pure compression test has little meaning since the deflection

43、 prior to the cantilever load test cannot be specified. Pollution tests, as specified in IEC 60507 3, are not included in this standard, their applicability to composite line post insulators not having been proven. Such pollution tests performed on insulators made of non-ceramic materials do not cor

44、relate with experience obtained from service. Specific pollution tests for non-ceramic insulators are under consideration. 1Figures in square brackets refer to the bibliography.

45、EC:2008 7 It has not been considered useful to specify a power arc test as a mandatory test. The test parameters are manifold and can have very different values depending on the configurations of the network and the supports and on the design of arc-protection devices. The heating effect of power ar

46、cs should be considered in the design of metal fittings. Critical damage to the metal fittings, resulting from the magnitude and duration of the short-circuit current can be avoided by properly designed arc-protection devices. This standard, however, does not exclude the possibility of a power arc t

47、est by agreement between the user and manufacturer. IEC 61467 4 gives details of a.c. power arc testing of insulator sets. Radio interference and corona tests are not specified in this standard since the RIV and corona performance are not characteristics of the insulator alone. Composite hollow core

48、 line post insulators are currently not dealt with in this standard. IEC 61462 5 gives details of tests on hollow core composite insulators, many of which can be applied to such line post insulators. Torsion loads are not dealt with in this standard since they are usually negligible in the configura

49、tion in which line post insulators are generally used. Specific applications where high torsion loads can occur are outside the scope of this standard. The application of this standard to hybrid line post insulators (e.g. those having a core made of a material other than resin impregnated fibres) has not been fully studied. For example, in general the load-time mechanical tests and tests for core material are not applicable to porcelain cores. It is th
