Bushing Tap Protector (BTP)
Very Fast Transients (VFTs) are high-frequency electrical disturbances that can occur in power systems. These transients pose a significant risk to critical components such as bushings, potentially leading to their degradation or failure. Given the vital role bushings play in ensuring the reliability and safety of power systems, their failure can result in substantial economic losses and safety hazards.
The Bushing Tap Protector mitigates these risks as it is designed to minimize and prevent bushing failures caused by VFTs and other transient conditions, especially under the demanding operating environments of modern power systems.
When bushings are equipped with online monitoring systems, the need for protection becomes even more critical. Online monitoring provides valuable real-time insights into bushing health and introduces additional exposure to transient events. The Bushing Tap Protector acts as a safeguard, ensuring the integrity of both the bushing and the monitoring system.
The Bushing Tap Protector is recommended to be installed in all applications where online bushing monitoring is used. This protects the equipment and the operator’s investment while ensuring reliability.
