Eco-friendly materials in electrical insulation.
The Workshop will treat different aspects of dielectric materials in electrical engineering regarding their ecological impact. From bio-sourced materials, to recyclability aspects of materials and electrical modules, to life-cycle assessment of power systems design. Details of the Workshop to come soon.
Soon more details will be provided
Tutorial “Assembly of space charge equipment for cables”
This tutorial, proposed by Pr. Hozumi and Pr. Morshuis, is held after the last day of the conference as a side event to ICD. The participants will experience the fabrication of a PEA measurement cell dedicated to cables. Participants will take home their own measurement cell. Space charge measurements of full-scale HVDC insulated cables systems have reached a level where they can be used in practical tests. However, the measurement of actual insulating systems involves unique problems such as voltage application methods and acoustic propagation characteristics. It remains difficult to systematize the know-how for solving these problems, and it is also difficult to let the readers understand their importance when they are described in a paper. In this short training, the participants will experience the know-how of space charge measurement by practically fabricating a measurement cell, and calibrate the charge intensity induced on the electrodes of a polymer insulator of 10 to 20 mm in thickness, with a bias voltage of about 10 kV. Participants will take home their own measurement cell.
An extra-charge would be called. See similar event at CMD 2022:
