Best Answer

The lightning phenomena is occurred on transmission lines or sub-stations due to which a negative wave is generated hence definitely destroy the power apparatus. So for impulse voltage testing of any power apparatus one must produce a negative impulse.

What does BIL basic insulator level really mean and its differences with Impulse withstand voltage and power frequency withstand voltage?

BIL is basic insulation level as per you or in other words it would be "basic impulse level" which implies the limit up to which an insulator could withstand impulse due to lightning strikes. Impulse is generated on the insulation due to the high voltage surges and spikes due to lightning strikes. BIL is generally much higher as compared to power frequency withstand voltage. In other words BIL is lightning Impulse withstand voltage. Impulse withstand voltage is the voltage that is generated due to switching operation and it's much higher than power frequency withstand, but BIL or the lightning withstand voltage is a the voltage level that an insulation can withstand during surge or lightning strikes.

What is critical impulse flash over voltage?

This is the peak voltage for a 50% probability of flashover or disruptive charge.


Basic impulse level BIL?

The Basic impulse level is the maximum peak voltage that a piece of equipment can withstand. When you exceed this rating the insulation will break down and short out.


Distance between ehv lines?

The distance between high voltage lines is governed by either a switching impulse voltage or lightning impulse voltage. The distance between lines, or lines and tower must have a high enough dielectric strength to avoid flashover at these voltage. Air can withstand a voltage of 3kv/mm.


What does BIL stand for in electrical high voltage substation?

BIL stands for Basic Impulse Level, it is the impulse voltage or power ( in the case of testing a transformer) or surge voltage in the case of lightning or switching, that a transformer or any other electric device is able to with stand. It refers to maximum voltage a device can with stand with out insulation breakdown which leads to a short circuit.
