Sheath Voltage Limiter Defects Detection Method Based on Harmonic Phasor Differences of Sheath Current for Cross-Bonded HV Cable by Hao Hu, Jing Tu, Yongheng Ai, Zhanran Xia, Ruoxin Song, Bin Yang, Xinyun Gao, Zhi Li, Fuyuan Liu, Hang Wang

“…By establishing a frequency-domain equivalent model of cross-bonded HV cables combined with SVL nonlinear resistance characteristics, harmonic currents under defect conditions are treated as harmonic sources injected into the sheath loop. Transfer functions analyze the impacts of SVL defects on sheath currents, revealing that harmonic content during SVL defects is significantly higher than under normal conditions and other defect types. …”
