Application of Infrared detection in condition-based maintenance for reactive compensation capacitor sets

摘要

Infrared diagnostic technique is a live detection technique characterized by convenience and fastness. It enables the detection in a live, non-contact, accurate, sensitive and safe manner. Infrared diagnostic technique is an important means of ensuring the safe and reliable operation of the power equipments. The precision infrared imaging of capacitor set by infrared technology can timely detect the equipment faults due to current or voltage-caused heating. It is of high significance for achieving the reactive power adequacy of the system.
