In order to realise the monitoring of the temperature of the switchgear, the authors need to conduct a thorough analysis of the temperature rise principle of the switchgear firstly. For the purpose of getting the detailed temperature distribution in the switchgear, a series of temperature rise tests were carried out based on the KYN28A-12(Z) overhead line switchgear, and the data were analysed and compared in detail to summarise the factors that affect the temperature distribution in the switchgear. %T Temperature rise test and analysis of high current switchgear in distribution system %B The Journal of Engineering %D March 2019 %V 2019 %N 16 %P 754-757 %I Institution of Engineering and Technology %U https://digital-library.theiet.org/;jsessionid=3svfp033q90ch.x-iet-live-01content/journals/10.1049/joe.2018.8371 %G EN
