From SF₆- to Air-Insulated RC Voltage Dividers: Pfiffner Instrument Transformers’ Innovations for a Sustainable Energy Grid

Pfiffner introduces a new generation of air-insulated resistive-capacitive voltage dividers (RCVDs) designed to replace SF6-insulated models without altering physical dimensions.



Pfiffner introduces a new generation of air-insulated resistive-capacitive voltage dividers (RCVDs) designed to replace SF6-insulated models without altering physical dimensions. Developed in collaboration with academic researchers, the synthetic-air RCVDs maintain high dielectric stability at elevated pressures, enabling safe, partial discharge-free operation under fault conditions. With successful lab validation and type testing, these innovations support grid modernization and compliance wPfiffner introduces a new generation of air-insulated resistive-capacitive voltage dividers (RCVDs) designed to replace SF6-insulated models without altering physical dimensions.ith upcoming F-gas regulations.
