Partial discharge (PD) is defined as a localized, high-frequency arcing that only partially bridges the insulation between multiple conductors or between conductors and the ground wall of an ...

Power cables are important assets in electric utility transmission networks for the reliable operation of power systems. To prevent catastrophic failures in underground cables and terminations, it is ...

Partial discharge (PD) signal processing techniques are critical in assessing the health and integrity of high-voltage insulation systems. Recent advances encompass a broad range of methods—from ...

The new PD-SG1 first-level partial discharge detection instrument makes distinguishing between PD and electrical noise easy. Designed for use both in distribution voltage substations and EHV ...

What is partial discharge? Methods for measuring PD. How PD impacts high-voltage cables. Partial discharge (PD) is evidence of a degrading insulation system, which could trigger costly repairs and ...
