Features: This book is the second edition of the original "Testing Methods for High-Voltage Electrical Equipment." It comprehensively elaborates on the testing methods for high-voltage electrical equipment. Most of the testing items introduced in the book are selected in accordance with current preventive testing requirements and standards. In addition to detailing the principles, connections, and various testing and operational methods, it also discusses the factors affecting the tests and the analysis and judgment of measured results. The book incorporates many effective new methods in high-voltage electrical testing in recent years in China. Most of the illustrations are based on field testing connections and results, making them highly practical and reference-worthy. The book is divided into thirty-four chapters. The substation equipment section introduces the parameter measurement and testing methods for transformers, current transformers, GIS circuit breakers, insulators, bushings, power cables, capacitors, lightning arresters, transmission lines, grounding devices, and arc suppression coils, as well as the measurement of system parameters, and the testing and online monitoring of partial discharge in electrical equipment. The motor section covers the insulation, characteristics, parameters, and temperature rise testing of generators, the method of phase-advance operation, the characteristics of excitation machines (including static semiconductor magnets) and the elimination of brush arcing, the characteristics of motors, temperature rise, and inter-turn insulation testing and adjustment methods.
