Abstract

The damage of arc to gas insulation protection will affect the safe and stable operation of power system seriously in the field of high voltage insulation. Therefore, it is a great theoretical value and practical significance to study the mechanism of gas discharge and find out the law of gas discharge under different conditions for ensuring the safe and stable operation of power system. In order to study the variation law of arc channel complexity under different voltage levels, this paper adopts the discharging experiment of needle-plate electrode, adds different high voltage to the needle-plate electrode under other conditions unchanged, carries out many experiments, and collects five groups of discharging channel plans of needle-plate gap under different voltage. The are discharge channel image in the experiment is restored to the three-dimensional image from the space angle, and the fractal dimension of arc discharge channel under different voltage pressure is calculated by box dimension method of fractal dimension. The results show that the complexity of discharge channel decreases with the increase of voltage level, that is, the lower the voltage level and the larger the fractal dimension.
