GIS RC Voltage Divider PDF
Introduction
Power quality has become a major concern, both for
electricity providers and their customers. As todays
electrical equipment is far more sensitive than electrical
devices of the past, a reliable picture of the HV line
voltage is needed to determine the origin of power
disturbances.

Harmonics measurements
Unlike capacitive voltage transformers (accuracy on narrow
frequency band only) and inductive voltage transformers
(harmonic frequency resonances between winding inductances and stray capacitances), RC Voltage Dividers are
linear from DC up to 20 kHz. Harmonics can be measured
with an accuracy better than 1 % (see Fig. 2) and a phase
displacement less than 1 on this frequency range.
Both for power quality measurements and for measurements at rated frequency, Trench Resistive Capacitive
Voltage Dividers (RC Voltage Dividers) are able to
measure over a large frequency band with a high
accuracy. They are an effective solution for a modern
SMART Grid infrastructure.

Design
Trench RC Voltage Dividers are designed based on the
long experience with capacitive dividers and capacitors
for different applications (capacitive voltage transformers,
coupling capacitors, dividers for DC applications or test
labs, energy storage capacitors or grading capacitors).
The resistors connected in parallel to the capacitor
windings are designed to guarantee an extremely low resistance variation through time, electrical stress and
temperature.
The insulation system is made of oil / paper-polypropylene
mounted in a composite housing. The whole design is
directly mounted into the GIS in the common SF6-gas
compartment.
Trench RC Voltage Dividers are designed to allow an easy
and fast customization to specific customer requirements.
