Inductive Current Transformer JGF
Current transformers type JGF are used in high voltage switchgear within the 245-550 kV range. They transform high current into standardised, equivalent values for meters, measuring and protection devices.
The current transformer section is located in the pressure-resistant head housing. The current transformer cores are fitted in a protective core shell made of massive cast aluminium, which is connected short-circuit proof to the bushing. The secondary outlets are passed through the SF6 /air bushing in the connection terminal box on the base construction of the insulator.
The current distribution along the insulator is optimised by a special layout of the control electrode inside the silicone composite insulator.
The housing components consist of helium-tight, corrosion-resistant cast aluminium. All housing components under pressure are individually typetested according to applicable pressure vessel standards.
The SF6 gas density is monitored temperature-compensated by a gas density monitor with alarm contacts. The special design means the function of the gas density monitor can be checked without dismounting it.
A corrosion-resistant metal rupture disc, protected by a metal cover, located at the top of the head housing ensures safe pressure relief in case of error.
The generously designed terminal box is equipped with a cover that opens sidewards.
Pure SF6 gas is used for ambient temperatures up to -40°C. The transformer is filled with a mixed gas for lower ambient temperatures up to -60°C.
Features
- High operating safety through optimal current distribution in the field-controlled bushing
- Low weight and high creepage resistance through the use of composite insulators
- High flexibility due to simple primary and secondary changeover
- High operating safety through pressure relief with rupture disc
