Análisis de fallos y evaluación energética de anomalías en conductores eléctricos de potencia mediante termografía.

Abstract

The research carried out has the following objectives: to detect the failure due to overheating, to carry out he study and analysis of the behavior of the gauges of electrical power conductors by the use of thermography technique. The means to achieve this anomaly is by means of an electric motor pump with capacity of 2 HP, the calculation of suitable conductor gauge is number 14, in the study it is tried to carry out a dimensioning of the gauge until reaching a number 24, in the process of analysis of the failure is done by means of the AMEF (Analysis of Mode and effect of Failure); And different variables and possible failure modes are determined, as well as the detection of anomalies by means of thermography, which is a preventive maintenance technique. The respective test are performed in the module for the detection of faults in electric conductors present in the Laboratory of Preventive Maintenance are obtained reliable data also recure to a measuring equipment that analyzes the energy quality in this way is observed the behavior of the fall voltage and power in their gauge at the time of undersizing. A comparative model is made by graphs considering the loss of power in the conductor in relation to the heating of the same, in this way are detected losses of the energetic cost that does not take advantage of the consumer. This work has the purpose of demonstrating that there is a loss of energy in the form of heat in the electric conductors, despite the fact that the conductors is with the right gauge.
