Ultraviolet inspection for diagnostics of coronary discharge on suspension insulators and lines of 35-110 kV

Abstract

In this paper, the question of the correctness and sufficiency of using a UV camera for the diagnosis of insulators and 35-110 kV power lines is considered. As a result of the literary analysis, controversial moments and minuses are identified in the existing method. In addition, for its refinement and correction, an experiment was conducted at the laboratory of the TVN SPbPU. The analysis of the experiment showed features and nuances in the work of the camera, which must be taken into account in the UV survey.
