Abstract
In a gas-insulated switchgear configured by connecting a plurality of units each including a plurality of devices accommodated in a tank, a connection structure connected with a power cable is installed outside the tank on both sides sandwiching a connection point between the units and a connection point between the devices. The connection structure includes a cap that closes an opening of the tank and a plug fixed to an outer surface of the cap. The cap includes a cap conductor connected to a center conductor and a cap solid insulator surrounding an outer peripheral side of the cap conductor. The plug includes a cylindrical plug solid insulator and a plug conductor that closes an end portion of the plug solid insulator and is in contact with the cap conductor.
Claims6
A gas-insulated switchgear configured by connecting a plurality of units each including a plurality of devices accommodated in a tank in which insulating gas is enclosed, wherein
- in at least one of a connection points between the units and between the devices, a connection structure connected with a power cable for connection with another unit or another device is installed outside the tank on both sides sandwiching a connection point between the units or a connection point between the devices,
- the connection structure includes:
- a cap configured to close an opening of the tank, the cap having a disk shape;
- and
- a plug fixed to an outer surface of the cap, the outer surface facing in a direction opposite to the tank,
- the cap includes:
- a cap conductor connected to a center conductor in the tank;
- and
- a cap solid insulator surrounding an outer peripheral side of the cap conductor,
- the plug includes:
- a plug solid insulator having a cylindrical shape;
- and
- a plug conductor configured to close an end portion of the plug solid insulator on a side contacted to the cap, the plug conductor being in contact with the cap conductor, ;
- and
- an adapter installed on an outer peripheral portion of the plug solid insulator,
- in the plug conductor, a plug hole communicating with a cylinder-inside in the plug solid insulator is formed,
- in the adapter, a through hole extending in an axial direction of a center axis of the plug is formed,
- into the plug, a power cable passing through the plug solid insulator is inserted, and
- a core wire of the power cable is inserted into the plug hole,
- the tank includes a flange on an end surface,
- the cap is fixed to the flange with a first bolt and a nut, and
- the plug is fixed to the cap with a second bolt screwed from outside the tank via the through hole to a non-through screw hole formed on the outer surface.
