Operating Temperature Control Specifications For High Voltage Disconnector Connectors
The temperature of the connector between the High Voltage Disconnect Switch and conductor must not exceed 70℃ during operation. When the equipment is powered on, current flows through the contact surface at the connection, generating heat. If there is even slight looseness or high resistance at the contact surface, the temperature rises rapidly. To avoid overheating, regular monitoring of the connector's temperature is crucial. Monitoring with an infrared thermal imager or temperature gauges can promptly detect abnormal temperature trends. A sustained temperature above 70℃ may cause aging of the connecting components and insulation structure, thereby affecting the safe operation of the entire system.
