12、etal fittings.14 DD IEC/TS 62371 2 INTRODUCTION The IEC standards concerning insulators for overhead lines and substations are classified into two categories. One is the standard for test methods and acceptance criteria and the other is the product standard in which characteristics of the insulators
13、 are specified. Product standards of most insulators, for example cap and pin type, long rod type insulators for overhead lines and station post insulators for substations, are available. In the case of hollow insulators, test methods and acceptance criteria are standardized in IEC 62155: Hollow pre
14、ssurized and unpressurized ceramic and glass insulators for use in electrical equipment with rated voltages greater than 1 000 V, but there has been no product standard. This seems due to the difference in application among hollow insulators and other insulators. The hollow insulators are usually ap
15、plied as a component of electrical equipment and other insulators such as cap and pin type or station post insulators are directly applied to the power system as equipment. There are benefits for standardization of the hollow insulators, even if they are used as components, for insulator manufacture
16、rs, equipment manufacturers and final users for the equipment. That is, benefits of cost saving in respect of manufacturing and inventory control, short delivery, interchangeability, etc. Taking account of every aspect on standardization of the hollow insulators, such as the fact that there are so m
17、any designs of electrical equipment, this Technical Specification covers only basic hollow insulators for normal application as a first step towards standardization work. Accordingly, special types of hollow insulators such as barrel type for some circuit-breakers, insulators for pollution and/or se
18、ismic areas, etc. are not within the scope of this specification. Therefore, different hollow insulators not included in this specification can also be applied to the electrical equipment in the case where special characteristics are required, depending on environmental and/or system conditions. The
19、re may be the possibility to standardize those hollow insulators as a next step after gathering sufficient information on experiences. In addition, it should be noted that the characteristics specified here are determined, considering the data collected through the survey on the presently available
20、hollow insulators. There may be the possibility that the survey is not complete and then the hollow insulators not covered by this technical specification can also be applied. Such insulators as widely applied but not covered by this technical specification will be added in the next revision through
21、 ascertained experiences. DD IEC/TS 62371 3 CHARACTERISTICS OF HOLLOW PRESSURISED AND UNPRESSURISED CERAMIC AND GLASS INSULATORS FOR USE IN ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT WITH RATED VOLTAGES GREATER THAN 1000 V 1 Scope This Technical Specification applies to ceramic and glass hollow insulators intended for ge
22、neral use in electrical equipment; ceramic hollow insulators intended for use with a permanent gas pressure in switchgear and controlgear. They are intended for indoor and outdoor use in electrical equipment, operating on alternating current with a rated voltage greater than 1 000 V and a frequency
23、not greater than 100 Hz or for use in direct current equipment with a rated voltage greater than 1 500 V. This specification specifies the dimensional and mechanical characteristics of the hollow insulator, which are essential for interchangeability of the hollow insulator of the same type. It is no
24、t the object of this specification to prescribe electrical characteristics because they are dependent on the apparatus of which the hollow insulator ultimately forms a part. However, standard lightning impulse withstand voltage which is provided in IEC 60071-1 is described only for reference for cla
25、ssification purpose. This specification applies to hollow insulators for use in electrical equipment in clean areas or lightly polluted areas, where seismic qualification is not required. For use in areas characterised by heavy pollution levels and for other particular or extreme environmental condi
26、tions such as seismic force, it may be necessary for certain dimensions to be changed. The hollow insulators covered by this specification are: a) straight type hollow insulators with metal fittings on both ends; b) taper type hollow insulators with metal fittings on both ends; c) straight type holl
27、ow insulators without metal fittings; d) taper type hollow insulators without metal fittings. The hollow insulators are intended for use in electrical equipment, for example: circuit-breakers; instrument transformers; surge arresters; bushings; cable sealing ends; switch-disconnectors; disconnectors
28、; earthing switches; capacitors. There may be some cases that hollow insulators whose design can strongly be influenced by other components of specific equipment, for example, active parts of circuit-breakers. For such cases, the hollow insulators can be separately designed, depending on respective
29、requirements of such equipment and not be covered by this specification. DD IEC/TS 62371 4 NOTE 1 Hollow insulators not prescribed in this specification can also be applied to electrical equipment, depending on specific requirements of the equipment. However, if similar insulators are available in t
30、his specification, it is preferable to apply them. NOTE 2 For general recommendations for design and tests of the hollow insulators, see IEC 62155. NOTE 3 For characteristics of hollow insulators for use in polluted areas, reference can be made to IEC 60815-1and IEC 60815-2. 2 Normative references T
