Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to a combined current and voltage converter for metal-enclosed high-voltage installations with compressed-gas filling. In order to be able to avoid any passages for the connecting leads through the housing (1, 2), the electrode of the capacitive voltage converter part consists of an intermediate element (3) inserted into the housing in an insulated and gas pressure-tight manner. The intermediate element (3) has on its outside a layer of insulating material (9) and on top of this a metal layer (10). The whole (3, 9, 10) forms a support body for current converter cores (11) surrounded by secondary windings. The low-voltage capacity between the intermediate element (3) and the metal layer (10) is fed to an electronic measuring amplifier (14) via a screened measuring cable (12/12a). The current converter cores (11) are protected mechanically by a sheath tube (16), the latter simultaneously conducting housing currents. FIG. 1.
