TESTING OF PROTOTYPE SIGNALING DEVICES FOR INSULATOR CONTROL

Abstract

For the English abstract and full text of the article please see the attached PDF-File (English version follows Russian version).ABSTRACT The article introduces laboratory studies of RFID tags used for radio frequency identification and control of the dielectric state of linear polymer insulators LK-70, which are used in the overhead power lines, including the contact network. The effect of electrical discharges on RFID technology performance capability, the effect of climatic factors, the angular distance dependence and the speed of registration of RFID tags for signal reception by a terminal for data collection are measured, the breakdown current is determined. The results of tests that confirm the possibility of radio-frequency identification monitoring of the state of insulators are analyzed. Keywords: overhead power line, contact network, polymer insulators, RFID technology, tests, prototypes, built-in signaling device, RFID tags.
