Аннотация: This article is dedicated to an important problem of increasing the reliability of supporting-rod porcelain insulation at electric power substations. Porcelain insulation is installed on open switchgears (OSGs) of substations as part of the main switching equipment. Obsolescence and physical wear results in the destruction of suppoПоказать полностьюrting-rod porcelain insulators (SRIs), which often leads to serious consequences: shutdown of substation bus systems, emergency shutdown of substation equipment, reduction of power plant loads, as well as they pose a threat to operational personnel during operational switching. When supporting-rod insulation is replaced in due time, it significantly increases the reliability of the main substation equipment. Possible causes of failures were analysed using a graphical technique (Ishikawa diagrams). It has been established that sudden temperature changes of the ambient air are an important negative aspect, especially the transition of temperature values through 0ºC. The work represents a mathematical model of the development of microfractures in the insulation body of a ceramic insulator. The influence of external forces on the insulator leads to the appearance of additional stresses in it, to the destruction of new particles and to the sudden growth of microfractures. The article gives main SRI diagnostic techniques currently used in the electric power industry. According to statistics, it has been established that a relevant approach is the transition to digital technologies, which provides an automated information processing process without deactivating a piece of equipment. The article describes and proves that the proposed system of diagnostics of supporting-rod porcelain insulation at digital substations without deactivating a piece of equipment is a relevant area of scientific development. Within the framework of this scientific study, a patent for invention No. 2743887 dated 20 April 2020 was obtained. © 2021, World Scientific and Engineering Academy and Society. All rights reserved.
