GB/T 26218.3-2011 Selection and dimensioning of high-voltage insulators intended for use in polluted conditions—Part 3:Composite insulators for a.c.systems
This part of GB/T 26218 gives specific guidelines and principles to arrive at an informed judgment on the probable behavior of a given insulator in certain pollution environments.
This part is applicable to the selection of composite insulators for a.c. systems, and the determination of their relevant dimensions, to be used in high voltage systems with respect to pollution.
The contents of this part are based on CIGRE 33.13 TF 01 documents [1], [2], which form a useful complement to this part for those wishing to study in greater depth the performance of insulators under pollution.
This part does not deal with the effects of snow or ice on polluted insulators. Although this subject is dealt with by CIGRE [3], current knowledge is very limited and practice is too diverse.
The object of this part is to give the user means to:
——determine the reference unified specific creepage distance (USCD) from site pollution severity (SPS) class;
——choose appropriate profiles;
——apply correction factors for altitude, insulator shape, size and position, etc. to the RUSCD.
