RIP - Technology: summary of main advantages

� Flexible in Design– Adaptable on different transformer and plant constructions– compact & robust– no porcelain except for outdoor

conditions– silicon sheds possible– any installation possible (vertical,

horizontal)� Operation safe, service-friendly

– no damage risk on the bottom part– no explosion risk with influence of the

transformer– gas tight– heavy inflammable– high operation safety also by damages

of outer insulation– no porcelain on transformer side

� Environmental friendly– oil free– no explosion and fire risk through oil

leakage– no environmental risk through oil leakage– maintenance friendly– earthquake proof

� High technical level– excellent mechanical strength– low dielectric losses– partial discharge free up to the double

rated voltage– high thermal strength (120o C)

In modern metal enclosed switchgear SF6 - gas is usedas an extinguishing and insulating medium, ensuringhighest security standard for operating staff and resi-dents, especially in most confined and dense populatedareas.As a result, today’s space saving design requires excel-lent mechanical and electrical performance of all com-ponents involved.Micafil’s contribution to this world -wide development isit’s new product range of GARIP bushings. These havebeen designed for the direct single phase connectionbetween power transformers and gas insulated switch-gear (GIS) for rated voltages of 72.5 kV up to 550 kV.

Since more than 40 years Micafil AG produces high vol-tage bushings made with Vacuum Resin ImpregnatedPaper Technology (RIP).We are proud of our leading position in this field, makingavailable to our customers profound expertise in thelatest state of the art technology, which is based uponmore than 50000 RIP - bushings successful in operation.

The insulation body of the GARIP condenser bushingseries consists of a robust and solid core, made ofwound crepe paper and inserted aluminium foils for fieldcontrol, carefully vacuum dried and subsequentlyimpregnated with special epoxy resin.

The basic procedure for this new kind of manufacturewas originally developed by Micafil AG in Switzerlandalready in 1958 and continuously improved in the courseof four decades.

Advanced standardisation, highly skilled craftsmanshipand computer-aided engineering guarantee today’smost reliable and advanced insulation system for everyvoltage level.

Main advantages of Micafil’sRIP- technology

• Short delivery times

• Low dielectric losses (tan δ ~ 0.35%)

• Partial discharge free up to double service voltage

• Fully dry, maintenance free

• Oil - free and environmental friendly

• Highest mechanical and thermal properties

• Robust design and vandalism resistant

• Option for any operating position

• Gas and oil tight

• Easy handling

Conductor loadingRated current dependent on the bushing lower length(see "Technical Data" page 5 & 6, column 12).Bushings selected with Ir not less than 120% of the ratedcurrent of the transformer are considered to be able towithstand the overload conditions according to IECPublication 60354 (Loading guide).

Recommendations for bushing installationTransformerThe field strength in the oil on the surface of the shieldinsulation must be limited to values normal for insulatedcomponents. As a guideline minimum distances A togrounded transformer parts are given below:

Type designationThe type designation is included in an overall system. Anexample of nomenclature used to designate our GARIPbushings:

GARIP RTKG 245-1050 / 2000

Testing of the bushingEach bushing undergoes routine testing before leavingthe factory, either according to IEC 60137 or IEEEC57.19.00.

The standard tests include:

• Tan δ, capacitance and partial discharge measure-ment

• Power frequency test• Lightning impulse test (if applicable)• Leakage test

Ordering particularsWhen ordering please state:

• Type and catalogue no. see the table below• CT space L6, see "Technical Data" page 5 & 6, column

GISObserve the minimum enclosurediameter DGIS as well as the minimumoperating SF6 - gas pressure (see"Technical Data" page 5 & 6, columns17 & 18). Adjacent conductor parts shouldbe well adapted to the bushing terminal.

GeneralBecause the bushing is completely dry it can beoperated vertically or horizontally or in any position.
