It depends on the detection method.

れている。 There are various proposals to improve the disaster prevention function of troughs that house power cables, but for example, sealed disaster prevention troughs made of reinforced plastics containing flame-retardant additives such as aluminum hydroxide have been proposed to prevent cables from grounding. If the damage occurs due to the gas pressure that sometimes occurs, fresh air will flow in through the damage,
There was a risk that the fire would spread to the cable because the cable rupture hole heated by the arc would ignite. For this reason, improvements have been made to the disaster prevention trough itself. For example, pressure relief sections are provided at predetermined intervals on the lid of the disaster prevention trough, and the shapes of these pressure relief sections have also been improved in various ways.
Disaster prevention troughs have also been created that have pressure relief sections with slits that can withstand earth fault currents of ~60 KA.

ついては末だ必ずしも適切な方法ありとは云い難

とは言えない。 In other words, the Murray loop method, pulse radar method, discharge detection type pulse radar method, etc. are known as methods for locating this ground fault point, but the Murray loop method is used for locating parallel healthy phases, such as a three-phase simultaneous ground fault. If there is no ground fault, or if the ground fault resistance is high and the fault point does not discharge even if a high-voltage power source is used, the measurement accuracy will be slightly low, and the measurement requires skill. Furthermore, all of the pulse radar methods described above utilize reflection of electrical pulses, and cannot be said to have sufficient search sensitivity.

に伝えられ、地絡事故の発生を検知できる。 FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which optical fibers are arranged in a cable storage part for carrying out the present invention. A power cable 2 is housed and laid in the center of 1-1, and an optical fiber 3 is placed at an appropriate position in the remaining space. (In the figure, it is held along the upper edge of the cable storage section 1-1.) FIG. 2 is a simplified explanatory diagram for explaining the method of the present invention, in which a power cable is stored and laid in the trough 1, An optical fiber 3 is provided in parallel with this, and this optical fiber 3 is connected to a ground fault point locator 4. Here, when a pulse signal is sent from one end of the optical fiber 3, it returns as a reflected pulse at the broken point, and this broken point can be detected by the ground fault location device 4, resulting in the detection of the ground fault position.
Although not shown, if one end of the optical fiber 3 is connected to a ground fault point locator through a light emitting section and the other end is connected to a ground fault point locator through a light receiving section, a break in the optical fiber will be immediately transmitted to the ground fault point locator. , the occurrence of a ground fault can be detected.

ことができる。 The case where the optical fiber is disconnected due to a ground fault has been described above, but ground faults can also be detected based on changes in transmission loss and the ground fault point can be located for failures other than disconnections.

The optical fiber 31 is a normal silica-based optical fiber having, for example, a core diameter of 50 .mu.m, a cladding diameter of 125 .mu.m, and a graded refractive index distribution with a relative refractive index difference of 1% between the core and cladding. The primary coat is not necessarily soft, but is preferably harder than normal. The secondary coating layer 33 is made of crosslinked polyethylene, silicone rubber, heat-shrinkable rubber such as ethylene vinyl acetate resin, or plastic.

一層好ましいものと言える。 In addition, if the cladding material of the optical fiber is selected appropriately, the transmission loss will change due to the addition of thermal history, and the reflection of optical pulses can be increased. It is also possible to make it easier. In the event of an actual ground fault, the temperature near the ground fault will be about 5 seconds at 200℃ or higher, and about 2 seconds at 300℃ or higher. It is even more preferable to use optical fibers.

波形信号としてとらえればよい。 As described above, according to the present invention, the optical fibers installed in parallel to the power cable in the trough are used to prevent breakage in the event of a ground fault, as well as damage to the input end due to increased loss at high temperatures. By using changes in the intensity of the returning scattered light or reflected light, it is possible to measure the loss in the length direction of the optical fiber (optical pulse measurement) using a ground fault location device, which can prevent abnormal temperature rises due to ground faults. By detecting a sudden drop in the light reception level in that area when an abnormality occurs, it is possible to know the location of the abnormality, and to detect changes in the light reception level, a continuous monitoring device is configured using, for example, a differential circuit.
It can be seen as a waveform signal.
又、本発明は地絡点標定は特別な操作を要する

用いないので事故の様相に無関係に地絡点標定が

る。 In addition, the present invention does not require any special operation to locate the ground fault point, so no skill is required, and since no cable is used, the ground fault point can be located regardless of the nature of the accident. Since the pulse response is better than that of the conventional method, highly accurate positioning can be achieved.
