· Fault Definitions and:
· Fault Definitions and:
For the purpose of this International Standard, the following definitions, some of them based on IEC 60050(191), IEC 60050(212) and
IEC 60050(604) apply:
1- Fault
An unplanned occurrence or defect in an item which may result in one or more failures of the item itself or of other associated equipment
[IEC 604-02-011
NOTE - In electrical equipment, a fault may or may not result in damage to the insulation and failure of the equipment.
2- Non-damage fault
A fault which does not involve repair or replacement action at the point of the fault
NOTE - Typical examples are self-extinguishing arcs in switching equipment or general overheating without paper carbonization.
[IEC 604-02-091
3- Damage fault
A fault which involves repair or replacement action at the point of the fault
[IEC 604-02-08, modified]
4- Incident
An event related to an internal fault which temporarily or permanently disturbs the normal operation of an equipment [IEV 604-02-03, modified]
NOTE - Typical examples are gas alarms, equipment tripping or equipment leakage.
5- Failure
The termination of the ability of an item to perform a required function [IEC 191-04-01]
NOTE - In the electrical equipment, failure will result from a damage fault or incident necessitating outage, repair or replacement of the equipment, such as internal breakdown, rupture of tank, fire or explosion.
6- Electrical fault
a partial or disruptive discharge through the insulation.
7- Partial discharge
A discharge which only partially bridges the insulation between conductors. It may occur inside the insulation or adjacent to a conductor
[IEC 212-01-34, modified]
NOTE 1 - Corona is a form of partial discharge that occurs in gaseous media around conductors which are remote from solid or liquid insulation. This term is not to be used as a general term for all forms of partial discharges.
NOTE 2 - X-wax is a solid material which is formed from mineral insulating oil as a result of electrical discharges and which consists of polymerized fragments of the molecules of the original liquid
[IEV 212-07-24, modified].
Comparable products may be formed from other liquids under similar conditions.
NOTE 3 - Sparking of low energy, for example because of metals or floating potentials, is sometimes described as
Partial discharge but should rather be considered as a discharge of low energy.
8- Discharge (disruptive) .
The passage of an arc following the breakdown of the insulation
[IEC 604-03-38, modified]
NOTE 1 - Discharges are often described as arcing, breakdown or short circuits.
The more specific following terms are also used:
- spark over (discharge through the oil);
- puncture (discharge through the solid insulation);
- Flashover (discharge at the surface of the solid insulation);
- tracking (the progressive degradation of the surface of solid insulation
by local
Discharges to form conducting or partially conducting paths);
- sparking discharges which, in the conventions of physics, are local
Dielectric breakdowns of high ionization density or small arcs.
NOTE 2 - Depending on the amount of energy contained in the discharge, it will be described as a discharge of low or high energy, based on the extent of damage observed on the equipment .
9- Thermal fault
Excessive temperature rise in the insulation
NOTE - Typical causes are
- Insufficient cooling,
- Excessive currents circulating in adjacent metal parts (as a result of bad
Contacts, eddy currents, stray losses or leakage flux),
- Excessive currents circulating through the insulation (as a result of high
Dielectric losses), leading to a thermal runaway,
- overheating of internal winding or bushing connection lead.
10- Typical values of gas concentrations.
gas concentrations normally found in the equipment in service which have no symptoms of failure, and which are over passed by only an arbitrary percentage of higher gas contents, for example 10 % .
NOTE 1 - Typical values will differ in different types of equipment and in different networks, depending on operating practices (load levels, climate, etc.).
NOTE 2 - Typical values, in many countries and by many users, are quoted as "normal values", but this term has not been used here to avoid possible misinterpretations.
