Basic knowledge of contact resistance- Definition: Contact resistance is the additional resistance that appears where a stationary contact meets a moving contact.
- Components: It comprises constriction (contact) resistance and surface resistance of the contact parts.
- Causes of excessive contact resistance: contact burning after interruption of large short-circuit currents; poor mechanical adjustment or unstable fixation changing stroke, pressure or contact area; oxidation after long idle periods; spring deformation reducing contact pressure; mechanical wear; corrosion or residues in oil-filled breakers.
- Factors affecting contact resistance: material properties (resistivity, hardness, chemical and mechanical properties), contact form (point/line/surface), surface condition (oxide films), contact pressure and surface roughness.
Applications- On-site maintenance of high-voltage switchgear, factory circuit resistance testing of switchgear, and inspections by power utilities and service departments.
Maintenance and upkeep:- The equipment should be placed indoors in a dry, dust-free, ventilated, and non corrosive gas environment. Stacking and discharging are not allowed without wooden box packaging. When storing equipment, the panel should face upwards. And place moisture-proof materials at the bottom of the equipment to prevent it from getting damp.
