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) measurement has been used for several decades to assess the condition of high voltage (HV) and medium voltage (MV) electrical apparatus. In the past, the application was mostly ...

BAUR Prüf-und Messtechnik GmbH has introduced “liona” - a portable device for measuring and locating partial discharge s during operation (online). With this device, medium- and high-voltage cables ...

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 ...
