Abstract:
The present invention relates to an electrical device (1) comprising a gas-insulated transformer (101) or reactor. The electrical device (1) comprises a housing (12) enclosing an interior space (14), at least a portion of which defining an insulation space (16) containing a dielectric insulation fluid comprising an organofluorine compound, and an electrical component (18) being arranged in the insulation space (16) and being surrounded by the insulation fluid. The electrical component (18) comprises at least one winding (20, 22). The electrical device (1) further comprises an electrical connector (32) for bringing the apparatus (10) from non- operational state to operational state by connecting at least one winding (20, 22) to a power grid. The device (1) further comprises an auxiliary power source (34) which is connectable to at least one winding (20, 22) when the apparatus (10) is in the non-operational state.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an apparatus for the generation, transmission, distribution and/or usage of electrical energy, said apparatus comprising a housing enclosing an insulating space (4) and an electrically conductive part arranged in the insulating space (4), said insulating space (4) containing a dielectric insulation fluid (3, 31) comprising an organofluorine compound, at least one solid component (2) of the apparatus being directly exposed to the insulation fluid (3, 31). According to the invention, at least one solid component (2) that is directly exposed to the insulation fluid (3, 31) contains a basic body (5) made of a first material and a protective layer (10) made of a second material different from the first material, said protective layer (10) being directly or indirectly applied on the basic body (5) and having a thickness of at least 50 μm.
