GAS INSULATED WALL BUSHINGS TYPE GGFL TECHNICAL GUIDE 5 Design The GGFL type wall bushing is an SF6 gasinsulated bushing intended for use in HVDC valve halls. It can also be used in AC applications. Having no oil and no condenser core gives a lightweight, yet rigid, design. The bushing was first introduced in Sylmar Converter station in Southern California 1992. It experienced and performed well during the 1994 Northridge earthquake. Later, seismic requirements were enhanced and the design improved even further by introducing a flexible bellow. The bellow stabilizes the conductor and is primarily used on larger bushings above 400 kv DC. The design is suitable for horizontal (wall bushing) as well as vertical mounting (roof bushing) and any intermediate angle. The bushing consists of an aluminum intermediate flange fitted with two composite insulators. The insulators consist of a glass fiber reinforced epoxy tube fitted with silicone rubber sheds for excellent electrical properties, also in rain and pollution conditions. The flanges of the insulators, which connect to the intermediate flange and to the cover of each high voltage end, are made of aluminum and are fastened with screws and nuts and provided with O-ring seals. The current is carried from the outdoor outer terminal through the cover via a firmly attached multiple contact or welded to a tubular aluminum conductor. There is a corresponding arrangement at the indoor end to carry the current to the indoor outer terminal. Several different studs are available for the air side connections and may be selected to properly interface to the relevant current clamp. The standard color of the composite insulator is ANSI 70 light gray. Compared to other designs with conventional condenser cores, this design gives a bushing easy to handle due to its relatively low weight. The reduced number of different materials also gives an electrically stable solution. The main gas sealing interfaces are obtained from known and proven designs from gas-insulated substations. The bushing, being of a non-condenser core type, does not demand a capacitive test tap. For applications where on-line voltage divider is requested, a capacitive test tap can be provided by introducing an isolated floating shield in the wall flange.

8 GAS INSULATED WALL BUSHINGS TYPE GGFL TECHNICAL GUIDE 05 Example of shed form. Shed form The standard shed form for GGFL bushings is the anti-fog type with alternating long and short sheds. The specific creepage distance, and thus the total creepage for a given flashover distance may be tailored by altering the shed profile. This is fairly easy using the extrusion method to apply silicone sheds in a helical form. ABB GGFL bushings are usually provided with one of the standard profiles giving a creepage to flashover ratio in the range of 3.3 to 3.6. Some outdoor applications have been provided with a profile exceeding ratio 4. 05 60 5 R5 38 60 11 18 30 R8 The specific creepage distance have ranged from 23 mm/ kv DC in the Sylmar reference installation to about 40-50 mm/kv DC for some of the coastal installations. In general, silicone rubber performs better than porcelain, and the need to apply silicone grease, as has been the case for many DC installations with porcelain, is not required with silicone rubber sheds. For special customer demands regarding creepage distance, other shed forms may be used. Transportation and storage The bushing must be protected from penetrating water if stored outdoors. This means that it must not be stored in areas where it can be predicted that the ground will become wet and muddy during heavy rain. Shelter the bushing from rain and snow with a tarpaulin or roofing. The bushing is supplied with the gas volume filled with nitrogen gas (N 2 ) at a pressure of 25 kpa. This pressure should be maintained during shipping and storage. The bushings are normally delivered from ABB in boxes with the bushing supported by blocks and fiber boards. The boxed are marked with Top end. This information can be important and shows how the bushing is oriented inside the box. Care must be taken when storing the bushings so that the silicone rubber sheds are not damaged. For instance, rodents, insects or birds can destroy the sheds. The largest bushings are delivered with shipping supports to secure the conductor during transport and storage. The supports must be removed, see the installation and maintenance for each GGFL type for further instructions. Long term storage Bushings for long term storage (>1 year) should be kept indoors with controlled temperature and low humidity. Table 1.

GAS INSULATED WALL BUSHINGS TYPE GGFL TECHNICAL GUIDE 9 Testing 06 Test tap. All manufactured parts are individually pressure tested during manufacturing. Pressure testing of each individual bushing is carried out at 900 kpa (9 bar) overpressure and tightness test is carried out at 600 kpa (6 bar) overpressure according to IEC 60137 and IEC/IEEE 65700-19-03. The bushing is protected from overpressures by a bursting disc installed on the intermediate flange or at the end cover depending on the design. 06 Standards The GGFL bushing is designed and tested according to IEC 60137, IEC/IEEE 65700-19-03, and IEEE C57.19.00 2004. For applications that call for different specifications, please contact ABB. Routine testing The bushing is routine tested according to applicable standards IEC 60137, IEEE C57.19.00 and IEC/IEEE 65700 19-03 for DC applications. The tests include measurement of partial discharge quantity, tan δ, capacitance, dry power frequency withstand, and if applicable DC voltage withstand, polarity reversal test and insulation of test tap. Visual inspection and tightness/ pressure tests of gas insulated bushings are performed and an individual routine test report is issued with each bushing. Type tests Complete type tests have been performed and reports are available on request. Test tap The GGFL bushings provided with capacitive test taps have designs that comply with the standard ANSI/IEEE C57.19.01-1991 Type A Normally grounded tap. The test tap is positioned on the intermediate flange. For bushings without measuring tap, the capacitance of the bushing may be measured between the wall flange and the high voltage end.

GAS INSULATED WALL BUSHINGS TYPE GGFL TECHNICAL GUIDE 11 Electrical data Typical rated order specific values for installed bushings are shown in the table below. These ratings are in many cases not the limit for each specific bushing and other combinations may be provided. Dielectric losses Due to the low dielectric loss of SF 6, in theory close to zero loss for ideal pure gas, the bushing has an extremely low dissipation factor (tan δ). For DC voltages this is of less concern, but for alternating voltages the bushing displays extremely low dielectric losses. This feature of the GGFL bushing has given an application in the ABB HVDC Light projects, connecting the phase reactor to the HVDC valve. Due to the switching of bipolar transistors in HVDC Light, a large amount of harmonics at high frequency are produced. Any other types of bushing with solid or liquid insulation easily overheat in this position, due to dielectric loss. The GGFL can handle these harmonics due to both the low capacitance as well as the inherent low loss properties of the gas. Table 3. Electrical data.

14 GAS INSULATED WALL BUSHINGS TYPE GGFL TECHNICAL GUIDE Insulation gas The main insulation consists of pure compressed SF 6 gas (sulfur hexafluoride). A N 2 + SF 6 mixture is used in extremely cold climates (below -30 C). The two purposes of the compressed gas are to cool the tubular conductor and to provide insulation from ground. Its capacity for doing so depends on the density of the gas. The bushing is normally filled with gas at a pressure of 570 kpa (5.7 bar) absolute at 20 C. The filling is made through a gas connection valve on the intermediate flange. This valve can be connected through tubing to ground level to enable emergency topping up during service. Shipping The bushing is shipped at a slight overpressure of 0.25 bar, with nitrogen gas. After installation and prior to operation a vacuum must be drawn so that air and humidity are removed and after that SF 6 gas is added to the operating pressure (570 kpa abs. at 20 C). The pressure gauge, if used, is intended to give a locally visible check of the internal pressure of the bushing, roughly indicating whether the bushing has the correct gas density or not. The SF 6 gas density monitor may be set to give signals at a number of different levels, either for warning or to trip at low gas density. The quality of the SF 6 gas should comply with standards IEC 60376 and 60796b Specifications and acceptance of new sulfur hexafluoride. Gas and gas handling equipment are not included in the delivery from ABB. We refer to suppliers like Dilo and Svenska Transforfilter AB (Malmqvist) for purchase of gas handling equipment and gas.

GAS INSULATED WALL BUSHINGS TYPE GGFL TECHNICAL GUIDE 15 Gas monitoring 10 Density guard. Since the late 1990 s, each gas insulated bushing for HVDC projects has been supplied with two independent three-stage density switches. The devices are sometimes called density monitors, pressure monitors etc., but should more correctly be labeled density switches. The function is to activate one of three independent switching contacts, each one for a different density level of the insulating gas. The first is activated at a pressure of 530 kpa (5.3 bar) abs. at 20 C to indicate low gas density. The devices only activate the internal switches, and it is up to the user to connect and interpret the position of the switches in their alarm and monitoring system. Furthermore, alarm settings, trip settings etc. are often requested, but the devices themselves do not differentiate between alarms and trips, it is up to the user to decode, and perhaps at the third level, corresponding to the lowest density-pressure setting, the user may wish to trip or block the energized equipment for investigation. The second signal level is activated at 520 kpa (5.2 bar) abs. at 20 C to indicate very low gas density. Once again, sometimes the three levels are referred to as alarm level 1 and alarm level 2 and the third level considered a trip level. The third level gives an alarm at 500 kpa (5 bar) abs. at 20 C, which is the dimensioning density of the bushing. At gas densities below 500 kpa the type test levels for dielectric strength do not apply. The ability of the bushing to conduct current declines progressively with falling gas density. It is important to remember that each of the three contacts is merely switching at each respective level, and whether each step is regarded as alarm or trip is defined by the user and should be adapted by the owner to the local procedures at each station. The units do not provide an active signal, and referring to items such as alarm or trip signals from the density monitor may lead to erroneous conclusions. 10

16 GAS INSULATED WALL BUSHINGS TYPE GGFL TECHNICAL GUIDE 11 Circuit diagram example. The user is to connect a voltage control signal to a connection block for each switching step. The interpretation of the switch position is then made by checking which of the contacts is carrying the voltage, indicating if the gas density is above or below the pre-set level of engagement for switch action. The recommendation from ABB is to not operate the bushings at levels below the third stage, since the bushings are type and routine tested with a level three condition of the insulating gas. This implies the insulating characteristics of the bushings are guaranteed down to the lowest level of the density switch. The third stage may thus in practice be regarded as a trip level but this is decided and programmed into the user's alarm system. This is the background to the devices being labeled as density switches, but for simplicity the pressure of the gas at a temperature of 20 C is commonly used. This can be seen in the descriptions below where a pressure level is related to a temperature. If dealing with density only, the temperature reference could be removed. Thus, the nominal filling condition the density giving a pressure of 570 kpa absolute at 20 C is the correct interpretation. The same density gives a higher pressure at higher temperatures, and a lower at lower temperatures. All references to pressure in the following description are referred to at 20 C. When dealing with gas insulation it is preferred to deal with the concept of density. The insulating properties of SF6 are dependent on the density, the number of molecules in the enclosed space, and not directly the pressure, which could be compared to how active the molecules are.
