Detector acústico en línea, de descargas parciales para accesorios de cables de media y alta tensión In-line acoustic detector with partial discharges for medium and high voltage cable accessories
Sector de la Técnica La presente invención trata de un sistema de detección en línea de descargas parciales para los accesorios, empalmes y terminales, de cables de media y alta tensión; utilizando como principio, de detección las ondas acústicas, sonoras y ultrasonoras, generadas por las descargas.TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an in-line detection system for partial discharges for accessories, splices and terminals, for medium and high voltage cables; using as a principle, the sound, sound and ultrasonic waves generated by the discharges.
Estado de la TécnicaState of the Art
La reconstitución y manipulación de los aislamientos de cables, durante el montaje de empalmes y terminales, en ocasiones tienen defectos o suciedad, causados involuntariamente, que pueden provocar el fallo del accesorio; la degradación del material debido al envejecimiento ocasionado por el tiempo en servicio, también puede finalmente desencadenar un fallo.The reconstitution and manipulation of the cable insulation, during the assembly of splices and terminals, sometimes have defects or dirt, caused involuntarily, which can cause the accessory to fail; The degradation of the material due to the aging caused by the time in service, can also finally trigger a failure.
En ambos casos, la existencia de un defecto o fallo incipiente, comienza a manifestarse mediante el efecto de la descarga parcial, que cortocircuita parcialmente el aislamiento, produciendo desplazamiento de cargas, incremento de la temperatura local y oxidación, entre otras alteraciones. Esto contribuye a agravar la magnitud del defecto, razón por la cual, su pronta detección puede permitir la reparación o sustitución del accesorio y evitar el fallo total y los consiguientes daños a la instalación y coste económico de la suspensión del servicio. Particularmente en las redes de alta tensión el tipo de fallo más frecuente, en los primeros años de servicio, es debido a defectos en los empalmes de los cables.In both cases, the existence of a defect or incipient failure, begins to manifest itself through the effect of partial discharge, which partially short-circuits the insulation, causing displacement of loads, increase in local temperature and oxidation, among other alterations. This contributes to aggravate the magnitude of the defect, which is why, its early detection can allow the repair or replacement of the accessory and avoid the total failure and the consequent damages to the installation and economic cost of the suspension of the service. Particularly in high voltage networks, the most frequent type of failure, in the first years of service, is due to defects in cable splices.

Dificultades de detección, a causa de las interferencias electromagnéticas irradiadas por la instalación eléctrica en servicio. Carencia de un sistema de medición en continuo, aislado galvánicamente del accesorio bajo prueba, que permita medir con seguridad en cualquier momento y detectar la presencia o no de descargas parciales. Esta invención ofrece una alternativa a estas limitaciones.In general, current detection systems are based primarily on electrical methods, patents WO / 2001/055740, WO / 2006/092632, WO / 1994/010579, WO / 1993/017351; there are particular cases, such as transformers, where electrical methods are used, patents WO / 2005/121821, WO / 2003/019211, WO / 1996/007925, electrical combined with acoustic methods, patents WO / 2001/018554, WO / 2005 / 091791, WO / 2002/018963, or only acoustic for the location of discharges, patents WO / 1997/024742, WO / 1996/018112.

La detección se efectúa en campo, en el propio lugar de la instalación y funcionamiento del accesorio, los sensores al estar incorporados en este, pueden estar permanentemente conectados y efectuando continuamente la detección, en plenas condiciones de servicio del accesorio, sea media o alta tensión. Los sensores se colocan en los extremos del accesorio, cubriendo acústicamente su perímetro, el número necesario es función del diámetro y longitud del mismo.The detection is carried out in the field, in the place of installation and operation of the accessory, the sensors being incorporated in it, can be permanently connected and continuously performing the detection, in full service conditions of the accessory, whether medium or high voltage . The sensors are placed at the ends of the accessory, acoustically covering its perimeter, the necessary number is a function of its diameter and length.
Cada uno de los sensores, estimulado por las ondas acústicas, genera una señal de respuesta que envían al amplificador electrónico al cual están conectados, en el exterior del accesorio, donde se combinan las diferentes señales. Un convertidor electro-óptico convierte la señal resultante en luz y vía fibra óptica se envía al punto de medida, este punto, por seguridad, normalmente está alejado varios metros del accesorio sujeto a comprobación, preferiblemente fuera de la galería de la instalación; la señal también puede ser remitida vía red telefónica o a través de internet al centro de control que disponga la compañía explotadora de la instalación.Each of the sensors, stimulated by the acoustic waves, generates a response signal that they send to the electronic amplifier to which they are connected, outside the accessory, where the different signals are combined.
