Motivation and background • The MOSA is a cheap and passive component, but protecting crucial apparatus • Overlooked despite of severe consequences if it fails • MOSAs can age and fail due to a variety of reasons • May offer inadequate over voltage protection, especially if the rated voltage is selected to low. • Diagnostic indicator: Resistive leakage current increases with time  increasing risk of failure

www.doble.no

Why test Metal Oxide Surge Arresters? • Utilize the lifetime of the operating MOSAs.

• Prevent arrester failures by replacing aged arresters before breakdown. • Avoid disturbances and costly outages of the electric power supply. • Reduce the risk for damages to other equipment, for instance transformer bushings. • Increase the safety for the utility/maintenance staff. www.doble.no

Mechanism for degradation of MOSA

• Sealing defects • Discharging due to surface contamination • Overloading • Long term aging during normal service

• Internal partial discharges

www.doble.no

Degradation of MOSA • One consequence of the degradation of the MOSA is an increase with time of the resistive component of the continuous leakage current • Increase in resistive leakage current will cause an increase in power losses and hence increased temperature in ZnO-blocks • The resistive current may exceed a critical limit where the accumulated energy in the ZnO-blocks exceeds the energy capability of the arrester. The arrester will then get thermally unstable and fail.

www.doble.no

Degradation of MOSA An arrester failure may appear in different ways: • Arrester with porcelain housing may explode

• The arrester can be causing an earth fault due to internal flashover • Aged or overloaded arresters may have reduced protection against overvoltages, i.e. it is not protecting the apparatus it is supposed to protect.

Requirements for surveyed surge arrester

1. Metal Oxide Surge Arrester - MOSA 2. Separate grounding wire 3. Insulated base for each arrester

www.doble.no

Requirements for surveyed surge arrester Why use insulated base arresters and separate earth leads:



Gives complete control of arrester current leading to the ground



Allows an easy on-line in service condition assessment test of the MOSA. Without insulated base you have to take the arrester out of service for proper condition testing.



If a surge counter is present, the clip-on should be placed above the counter to avoid circulating currents from the counter ground loop.

IEC 60099-5 Part 5 Selection and Application Recommendation

www.doble.no

IEC 60099-5: Available diagnostic methods Properties of on-site leakage current measurements:

A HV-DC test is effective but off line and complex

Method B2 is ranked to be the best field method for evaluation of ageing and deterioration of MOSA.

www.doble.no

IEC 60099-5: Metal Oxide Surge Arresters If the MOSA is energized by a pure sinusoidal voltage (fundamental frequency only), the capacitive leakage current will show a fundamental component I1c only, while the resistive leakage current will show both a fundamental component and a 3rd harmonic component (I3r) due to its nonlinear properties. The resistive components are said to be generated by the arrester itself (due to the not linear currentvoltage characteristic) and can therefore be used as a measure for the arrester condition.

www.doble.no

IEC 60099-5: Metal Oxide Surge Arresters  If harmonics are present in the operating voltage, this will generate a significant 3rd harmonic component in the capacitive

leakage current in the arrester.

 This capacitive 3rd harmonic component will be “added” to

the

3rd harmonic component resistive component and create a measuring error.

 The LCM 500 uses a compensation method where the capacitive

component generated by the operating voltage is eliminated.

www.doble.no

Typical Voltage - Current Characteristics

The resistive current component:  is typically 5-20% of the total

leakage current under normal operating conditions

 is a sensitive indicator of

changes in the voltage-current characteristic

 depends on the voltage and temperature

Ir2=20

Itot increases with only 1,5% when the resistive vector is

I2total = 102 δ1

Recalculation of leakage current  By using arrester system data and measuring the ambient temperature and operating voltage at the same time as the condition monitoring is performed, it is possible to recalculate the leakage current data to a common reference of:

20 °C and U/Ur=0.7 The resistive leakage current values will then be approximately the same independent of the test conditions by taking account of the ambient temperature and operating voltage, measurements performed under different conditions can be directly compared, and the measured values will be a reliable indicator of the arrester condition.

Grounding of the LCM 500

The LCM 500 can be grounding in two ways: 1.In laboratory testing or during charging battery by using the power supply cable. Power supply plug has to be connected to the local earth.

2.During field measurements grounding cable has to be connected to local earth system in the substation.
