This paper present a Finite Element model of a high voltage disconnector structure made using ANSYS program and the spectrum analysis of the model. The study was made in order to simulate the behaviour of the structure during different types of earthquakes. The collapse of a disconnector determined by earthquake has determinant implications in breaking the power supply for large territorial areas. The design of the disconnector structure must include the simulations of the earthquakes, made by experiments and by Finite Elements Methods programs. This paper presents the simulation of behaviour of the SMEP 400 kV disconnector during three types of earthquake using ANSYS program and offer a FEM model validated with experimental results in modal and spectrum analysis.
