Research on the defects in the field installation of insulated tubular bus-bar and its test method

Owing to Insulated Tubular Bus-bar has a significant advantage in the way of mechanical strength, current-carrying capacity, insulating performance and so on. Currently, it widely applies to electric power, petrochemical engineering etc. However, the device operation stability is low, frequent failures and bad influence, due to lacking of correlative standard and management. Most of these failures occurred as a result of field installation technique are lacking, even these faults cannot be effectively detected by normal testing measure. Because of above issues, this paper is aimed at field installation and handover test of insulated tubular bus-bar. By means of depth analysis all segments of the field installation, find out the possible faults during the installation. The test strategies aiming at the above faults were formulated. At last, experiment and analysis were done and conclusion was made in the paper. The research can make foundation for promoting the device's operation stability.
