High Voltage Engineering and Insulation Co-ordinations

High Voltage Engineering and Insulation Co-ordinations 3 credit 3 hours
This course is aimed to the high voltage engineering and insulation co-ordinations. The fundamental of high voltage theory is first erected for realizing the electromagnetic characteristics of high voltage. The behaviors of transient state and steady state of power system\'s lines, equipments and related apparatuses energized by high voltage will be analyzed. The mechanism and its root causes that produce abnormal high voltage will be surveyed. Based on these results, some important parameters and the methods are derived for planning, designing, constructing, operating, maintaining and testing the high voltage related engineering. In addition, the characteristics of high voltage insulation materials are investigated including the strengths for AC voltage, DC voltage and surge voltage, in which, some important parameters will be defined for assessing the performances of insulation material. Finally, the issue of insulation co-ordinations are discussed in detail for application on the pla.
