Why do high-voltage switchgear need to monitor temperature
As a very important electrical equipment in power plants and substations, switchgear has dynamic and static contacts and bus bar joints that are in high voltage and high current working conditions for a long time. Due to factors such as surface oxidation, korrosjon, loose fastening bolts, and contact aging, the contact resistance increases at the junction of dynamic and static contacts, as well as at the connection of the busbar. This causes an increase in temperature at the contact or joint, and the degree of overheating will continue to intensify, which will affect the insulation performance and equipment life.
