  • Patent number: 5153427
    Abstract: An optical d.c. voltage transformer having an electrooptic medium to which a d.c. electrical field or voltage to be measured is to be applied. The electrooptic medium affects the polarized light from the polarizer by an electrooptical effect to a degree proportional to the strength of the electrical field or voltage. The transformer includes a photodetector for producing an optical signal proportional to the affected light received from the electrooptic medium, a device for converting the optical signal from the photodetector into an electrical signal, a chopper for pulsating the electrical field or voltage to be applied to the electrooptic medium, in terms of time, a detector for demodulating the electrical signal from the converting device in synchronism with the pulsated electrical field or voltage, and an output unit for visually presenting the demodulated electrical signal similar in polarity to the electrical field or voltage to be measured.

  • Patent number: 4904972
    Abstract: A gas-insulated stationary induction electrical apparatus comprising a first closed vessel sealingly accommodating therein a main body having an iron core formed by laminating silicon steel sheets and also having at least one set of windings each consisting of a high-voltage winding and a low-voltage winding which are disposed apart from the iron core on both sides thereof, and a liquid medium for effecting cooling and insulation; a second closed vessel formed of an insulating material and sealingly accommodating therein the first closed vessel; and an insulating gas under a predetermined pressure which is sealed within the gap between the first and second vessels, wherein the induction apparatus main body is submerged in the liquid medium.

  • Patent number: 4571570
    Abstract: A winding for a static induction apparatus such as a transformer, a reactor and the like comprises a plurality of interleaved coils each formed by winding an electrically insulated strand conductor in a radial spiral. The coils are stacked axially and electrically connected in series between a line terminal and another terminal such as a neutral terminal. The winding is divided into a plurality of blocks each including a plurality of ones of the interleaved coils. The number of turns of each coil belonging to the block on the other terminal side is decreased as compared with that of each coil belonging to the block located closer to the line terminal, to thereby reduce the series electrostatic capacitance of the coils stepwise from one to another block starting from the one located on the line terminal side. The distribution constant is thus decreased. Favorable surge withstanding characteristics are attained, reliable insulation is assured and the winding can be realized in a reduced size.

  • Patent number: 4502320
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for diagnosing abnormality of an oil-filled electric apparatus is disclosed. Presence or absence of abnormality is determined by comparing contents of plural predetermined components contained in gas extracted from the oil of the electric apparatus with respective predetermined reference values. The type of abnormality is determined on the basis of at least one set of two specific components selected from the plural components.

  • Patent number: 4444040
    Abstract: In an apparatus for detecting gas components in the oil in an oil-filled device, which comprises a gas-storing chamber being provided at an oil-filled device containing an insulating oil through a gas-permeating material capable of separating gas components from the insulating oil, a gas calibration tube being provided at the gas-storing chamber through a switch valve, and a gas chromatographic device connected to the gas calibration tube through the switch valve, any influence of gas components in a subatmospheric pressure is eliminated and exact concentrations of gas components are detected by providing at least one stirring mixer having at least one throttle perforation in a carrier gas passage for supplying the gas components from the gas calibration tube to the gas chromatographic device at the upstream side of a gas separation column of the gas chromatographic device, or by proving a circulation passage between the gas-storing chamber and the gas calibration tube, a valve capable of being exposed to the

  • Patent number: 3996544
    Abstract: A multi-layer winding comprising cylindrically-wound conductors and having different diameters are arranged concentrically. The layer windings are connected in series from inside to outside. Each layer winding has a layer insulator arranged on the inside thereof with a flange. Inwardly of the layer insulator and adjacent to the next inward layer winding is formed an oil gap functioning as a cooling-oil path. That oil-gap-equivalent part at and in the vicinity of the ends of the layer winding where the potential is maximum between adjacent layer windings is larger than the other parts thereof. This construction reduces the intensity of the electric field at the ends of each layer winding and eliminates partial discharge, thus improving the reliability and rendering the multi-layer winding compact and light in weight as a whole.
