Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a passive fault protection arrangement for a measuring voltage transformer (1) or a power voltage transformer (1) for use in high voltage applications, comprising the voltage transformer (1) comprising a composite insulator (2) with a first high voltage terminal (3), and a post insulator (4) comprising a second high voltage terminal (6) configured for connecting a high voltage line (8), whereby the voltage transformer (1) comprises a moving contact (9) electrically connected with a first end to the first high voltage terminal (3) and a spring charged operating mechanism (10) configured for moving the moving contact (9) from a connected state, in which a second opposed end of the moving contact (9) is electrically connected to the second high voltage terminal (6), to an unconnected state, in which the second end is electrically disconnected from the second high voltage terminal (6), and the post insulator (4) comprises an activator (11) configured for, if an overcurrent occurs in the high voltage line (8), electrically disconnecting the second end from the second high voltage terminal (6) such that the spring charged operating mechanism (10) moves the moving contact (9) from the connected state into the unconnected state.
