Abstract :
In this paper, space charge in oil-paper insulation system has been investigated using the pulsed electroacoustic (PEA) technique. A series of measurements were carried out when the insulation system was subjected to different applied voltages. Charge dynamics in the insulation system during the volts-on, volts-off and decay have been analyzed. It has been found that homocharge injection occurred both at the anode and the cathode. Positive charges are observed to accumulate in the layers, which indicate that the oil-paper layer interfaces act as a barrier for positive charges. The decay tests showed that after 30 min, about a quarter of space charges remained in the sample, about 90% charges disappeared after 2 hours. Finally, total charge variation in these tests were analyzed.
