    摘要: Methods are provided for accelerating the insulation resistance measuring for determining an insulation resistance according to a pulse measuring method in an ungrounded power supply system. After indicating a target charging state of the network capacities available, a target point in time is calculated at which the network capacities have reached the target charging state. A first wait time is calculated from the current point in time as the difference between the target charging state and the current point. Alternatively, a target charging rate reflects a sufficiently stationary charging state of the capacitors, valid for measuring the insulation resistance. The target charging rate corresponds to the derivative of the first order of the target charging voltage and thus linked to the target point in time. Using the derivatives of the first order, a time difference is calculated as a second wait time.

    摘要: A method and an electric circuit arrangement for determining a branch insulation resistance and a branch leakage capacitance of a line branch to be monitored in a branched, ungrounded power supply system having active conductors and a measuring voltage fed centrally by a controllable measuring voltage source and a residual current caused by the measuring voltage being registered using a current sensor in the line branch to be monitored. The centrally supplied measuring voltage is formed over a generator period having a characteristic signal form defined via the frequency composition. By this (frequency) modulation of the measuring voltage, information is transmitted from the central feed location of the measuring voltage to the current sensor disposed in the line branch to be monitored. Based on this information, the current sensor can establish with which resistance value the coupling circuit feeds the measuring voltage in the corresponding generator period, without another communication channel being required.

    摘要: A method and a device for impedance monitoring for a single-phase or multiphase, ungrounded power supply system. The method comprising the following steps: measuring a complex impedance against ground simultaneously for each active conductor using a measuring device; calculating a complex touch current for each active conductor; testing in the computing unit whether the corresponding complex touch current exceeds a settable body-current threshold value; generating a switch signal in the computing unit upon the body-current threshold value being exceeded; and controlling a switch element using the switch signal for shutting off or isolating the power source.

    摘要: An extinguishing-agent discharge device includes a casing having a guide channel for an extinguishing agent, a metallic handle, a hose connection, an adjustment means for regulating an extinguishing-agent supply using a manual control unit and a discharge nozzle. A measuring-current transformer generates a current signal proportional to the electric current flowing in the extinguishing agent; an insulator section divides the casing into a discharge area having the discharge nozzle and an inlet area having the manual control unit, the measuring-current transformer disposed in the insulator section; a first electrode disposed in the discharge area in the extinguishing-agent flow and serves for detecting an extinguishing-agent potential; a second electrode disposed at the handle for detecting a ground potential in the inlet area; and a controller for evaluating the current signal for a potential difference occurring between the extinguishing-agent and ground and having a drive element acting on the adjustment means.
