research of the influence of various factors on the accuracy of determining of parameters and place of insulation damage in the electric networks of 6 to 35 kv

The present paper is devoted to the research of the method for determining the parameters and plot of insulation damage in the networks of 6 to 35 kV with isolated neutral on the basis of measuring the operating parameters of the network. In the considered three-phase circuit with a symmetric source of EMF and symmetric loading there was a damage of insulation in one of the phases. The calculations are carried out for the transmission line equivalent circuit with a branch line by means of node-potential method. An investigation of the influence of the magnitude of insulation conductivity in the place of damage of different sections of the network upon the accuracy of determining the insulation conductivity is conducted using the data from digital models. The research of this method is performed by advancing hypotheses about the place of damage and by considering the influence of the multiplicity of increasing insulation conductivity of the damaged section and accuracy class of measuring devices.
