2025-09-23When a voltage drop (usually referring to non-complete breakdowns like flashovers or intensified corona on the test object) or a complete breakdown occurs during a test with a series resonance device, its reaction mechanism is a core safety feature of its design.The device will immediately and automatically activate multiple protections, reacting extremely quickly to ensure the safety of the test object, the device itself, and personnel.

Regarding the phenomenon of series resonance and equivalent circuit power lines
2025-09-23The resonance phenomenon of voltage and current in electrical engineering is well known. In a series circuit with inductance and capacitance, series resonance and electrical parallel resonance occur in parallel at certain resonant frequencies. In a series circuit, this phenomenon corresponds to the condition that the inductance and capacitance resistance are equal. The circuit becomes purely active.As the frequency increases, the inductance and resistance increase, while the capacitance and resistance decrease. At the resonant frequency, their values are equal and cancel each other out, and enter the variable frequency series resonant mode. A similar phenomenon occurs when the current in the power cord changes. Under certain loads (currents), series resonance modes may occur on them. This situation occurs when the capacitive power generated is equal to the inductive power consumed. The power corresponding to this condition is called 'natural'.Calculations show that at the reson

Series resonance and parallel resonance
2025-09-23In AC circuits containing capacitors, inductors, and resistors with series resonance, forced electrical resonance of current and voltage occurs. At a certain frequency of alternating current, inductance and capacitance resistance may be equal (Xt=Xc). This means that the current intensity and applied voltage vary in the same phase, as if there were only Ohmic resistors in a circuit, and the voltage amplitudes on inductors and capacitors are the same but opposite in phase. This phenomenon is called series resonance or variable frequency resonance. The resonant frequency is determined by the formulaThe series resonance phenomenon is used in radio engineering to tune circuits to the desired frequency.When the frequency approaches the resonant frequency C0res [t] when a voltage is applied, there is a sharp decrease in the amplitude of the current intensity in an AC circuit powered by parallel connected capacitors and inductors (ignoring the active resistance due to its small size).

Resistive properties of series resonance
2025-09-23The series RLC circuit consists of a resistor R, an inductor L, and a capacitor C connected in series. As in an ideal series LC circuit without resistance, oscillation with resonant frequency may occur in an RLC circuit, but due to the presence of resistance, this resonant frequency will attenuate.Series resonance (also known as variable frequency resonance) occurs at the frequency with the minimum impedance of the circuit, where the reactance of the circuit is zero. In other words, if the impedance is only resistive without reactance, i.e. its imaginary part is zero, this situation will occur. When the reactance of an inductor and a capacitor is equal, resonance occurs, and due to their opposite signs, they cancel each other out. The following vector diagram shows this situation.The calculator also calculates the Q factor of the serial RLC circuit - a parameter used for series resonant circuits and devices, as well as mechanical resonators. The higher the circuit resistance, the great

Formula for calculating series resonant circuit
2025-09-22Series resonant (also known as variable frequency resonant) circuit is a circuit composed of inductors and capacitors connected in series.R is the equivalent ("virtual") active resistance of a circuit, representing the loss of reactive elements. Moreover, L and C themselves can be expressed as ideal without loss.Circular frequency: ω=2 πƒ. So the current in the circuit is α=È/Zn, where Zn is the total complex resistance of the circuit. As you know, for a series resonant circuit, it is defined as the sum of the resistances of all its elementsIt can be approximated that the active component of the input impedance R is independent of the frequency of the generator, although this is not entirely true in reality. Here, the skin effect factor plays a role, the proximity effect plays a role, and the quality factor depends on other effects. However, to understand how the reactance of a circuit varies with frequency, these subtle details can be ignored so far. The reactance component is a funct

Damping resonance in series resonant circuit
2025-09-22If there is an active resistor R in a series resonant circuit, the differential equation for damping charge resonance in the resonant circuit is described by the formula:We introduce the attenuation coefficientThe formula can be rewritten asThe solution of this equation is an expressionIt can be seen that the frequency ω of damping resonance in a series resonant circuit depends on the parameters of the circuit and is described by the following formula:The logarithmic reduction of attenuation is determined by the formula, and the quality factor of the circuit is also determined by its parametersAs the damping coefficient δ increases, the period of damping resonance increases, and when itWhen it becomes infinite, that is, as the vibration increases, the period of damping resonance increases. Exercise is no longer periodic. In this case, the resonance quantity tends to zero. This process is called non periodic. Technically, this is called damping.The arrows of measuring instruments (voltm

Formation of Electromagnetic Waves in Series Resonant Circuits
2025-09-22Series resonant (also known as series resonant voltage withstand device) circuit resonator is a circuit that includes connected inductor coils and capacitors. In such a circuit, current (and voltage) resonance can be excited. A resonant circuit is the simplest system in which free electromagnetic resonance may occur. Charge the capacitor with a capacitance of C to a voltage of U0. The energy stored in the capacitor isWhen a capacitor is connected to an inductor, current I will flow in the circuit, which will cause self induced electromotive force (EMF) in the coil, with the aim of reducing the current in the circuit. The current caused by this EMF (in the absence of inductive losses) will be equal to the discharge current of the capacitor at the initial moment, which means the resulting current will be zero. At this (initial) moment, the magnetic energy of the coil is zero. Then, the current generated in the circuit will increase, and the energy from the capacitor will enter the coil u

The reason for the decrease in resonant frequency of series resonant circuit
2025-09-19A series resonance (also known as variable frequency resonance) circuit is composed of a series capacitor and a capacitor, with an inductive coil L and a resistor R.The ideal series resonant circuit consists only of an inductor (without its own resistance) and a capacitor (LC circuit). Then, in this system, the current in the circuit, the voltage across the capacitor, and the charge of the capacitor maintain continuous electromagnetic resonance. Let's take a look at the outline and consider the source of the vibration. Place the initially charged capacitor in the circuit we are describing.At the initial moment, all charges are concentrated on the capacitor and there is no current on the coil (Figure 1.1). Because there is no external electric field on the capacitor board, electrons from the board begin to "leave" into the circuit (the charge on the capacitor begins to decrease). In this case (due to the released electrons), the current in the circuit increases. In this case, the di

Resonance effects in series resonant and parallel resonant circuits
2025-09-19Series resonant circuitThe series resonant circuit is shown in the figure. When there is resonance in the circuit, the inductance reactance and capacitance reactance will completely cancel each other out, and only the resistance of the circuit will provide resistance to the current. In this circuit, the impedance is only equal to the value of R plus the DC resistance of the coil. The main characteristic of a series resonant circuit is that its impedance is minimized during resonance. When the frequency is adjusted above or below the resonant frequency, the impedance will increase.Due to the minimum impedance during resonance in a series resonant circuit, the current in the circuit rises to its peak. When this high current value is multiplied by the inductive and capacitive reactance, it will cause a very high voltage drop across the inductor and capacitor. In fact, the voltage drop between the two ends of the inductor and the capacitorUnder resonance conditions, the power supply voltag

What is lightning impulse test? What is its function?
2025-09-19The lightning impulse voltage generator under UHV power can help many power workers conduct various power tests more conveniently.Lightning impulse test is a test used to evaluate the tolerance of electrical equipment and systems under lightning or surge conditions.

Why does the actual measured waveform of a lightning impulse voltage generator exhibit oscillations or overshoot?
2025-09-18The oscillation or overshoot of the waveform measured by the lightning impulse voltage generator is mainly due to the parasitic inductance and capacitance in the test circuit forming an unwanted resonant circuit.Core Reasons:1.Loop Stray Inductance (Primary Cause): Long high-voltage leads and the equipment itself have inherent inductance. The current changes extremely rapidly (very high di/dt). This inductance generates a back electromotive force (EMF), causing overshoot and subsequent oscillation.2.Stray Capacitance to Ground: The test object, voltage divider, and leads all have capacitance to ground. This forms unintentional LC resonant circuits with the loop inductance.3.Wave Reflection and Impedance Mismatch: If the high-voltage leads are too long, they act like transmission lines. If the generator's output impedance doesn't match the lead's characteristic impedance, voltage waves reflect back and forth, distorting the waveform and causing overshoot and ringing.Main Sol
