  • Patent number: 11971442
    Abstract: A gas monitoring system includes a gas-insulated switchgear, wherein the gas-insulated switch gear has at least two separated chambers which are filled with an insulating gas surrounding high or medium voltage components. A first sensor is connected to the first chamber and a second sensor is connected to the second chamber, both sensors adapted to measure a physical property of the insulating gas in their respective chambers over time. A computer unit is adapted to calculate from the two sensor measurements a leakage rate of the insulating gas in one of the two chambers using an adaptive filter, in particular a Wiener filter.
