22.9㎸급 케이블 결함 검출을 위한 초저주파 실험 및 현장 진단 분석

This paper presents few case studies of state diagnosis of XLPE cables using very low frequency techniques. The power cables of 22.9kV which have installation fault were assessed using VLF technique in addition to other techniques like insulation resistance and DC voltage withstand test. From the experimental results, The dielectric loss(tanδ) values of degradation of the cable(joint, knife, needle) at U0 were 5.839, 5.526 and 6.251, respectively and all values were “further study advised”. VLF PD measurement was also found defective portion. These method was effective in defect to fault in the degradation of the cable. However, the breakdown did not occur in the degradation of the cable because of properties of XLPE insulation. Few case studies of using VLF tanδ diagnosis for fault are measured and analyzed. The tanδ values at U0 were “further study advised” or “action required”.
