Transformer Core Ground Sensor(Closed Loop Cross-core Type)

Due to the effect of electromagnetic induction, there are parasitic capacitances between the high-voltage winding and the low-voltage winding, between the low-voltage winding and the iron core, and between the iron core and the shell, and the live winding will pass the parasitic capacitance. The coupling effect of the capacitors causes the iron core to generate a floating potential to the ground. Because the distance between the iron core and other metal components and the windings is not equal, there is a potential difference between the components.So that there is a potential difference between the components, when the potential difference between two points can break down the insulation, it will produce spark intermittent discharge, which will have an adverse effects on the transformer oil and solid insulation, Therefore, it is necessary to connect the iron core to the shell to make it equipotential with the shell. 

If the iron core or other metal components are grounded at two or more points, the grounding point will form a closed loop, resulting in a circulating current, which will cause local overheating of the transformer body, resulting in oil decomposition, and then lead to a decrease in insulation performance. In serious cases, the iron core silicon steel sheet will be burned out, resulting in a major accident of the main transformer, so the main transformer core must be grounded. Otherwise, the iron core will generate a floating voltage to the ground or the iron core will be grounded at multiple points, resulting in a heating fault, which seriously threatens the safety of the transformer and the power grid. By monitoring the grounding current of the iron core, faults such as multi-point grounding of the iron core can be found in time, preventing problems before they occur, and eliminating the faults in the bud.

TRXL-60W transformer core grounding sensor is a special supporting client "transformer core and clip grounding current monitoring device", which is used to monitor the ground fault current of transformer core and clips, and can realize continuous and online monitoring of core grounding current. Through monitoring, the insulation status of the equipment can be monitored in real time, and faults such as damp or damaged internal insulation, multi-point grounding of the iron core, foreign objects in the box, and sludge deposition in the fuel tank can be found in time. More importantly, it can provide reliable data basis for the condition maintenance of such equipment.

The material with high initial permeability is selected as the iron core, and the unique deep negative feedback technology and multi-layer metal shielding measures are adopted, which can automatically compensate the iron core and make the iron core work in an ideal zero magnetic flux state. The sensor can accurately detect the power frequency current of 100μA-700mA. The phase transformation error is not greater than 0.01°, and it has good temperature characteristics and electromagnetic field interference ability, which fully meets the accuracy of equipment sampling under complex power station field interference.
