Detecting Partial Discharge In Different Applications

Detecting PD in MV Panel Switchgear

Partial discharge monitoring in 1 kV to 35 kV medium-voltage switchgear is mainly used to predict insulation faults in MV equipment. Various partial discharge sensors are typically used in medium-voltage switchgear to monitor partial discharge signals at different locations: busbars and insulators in the busbar compartment, circuit breaker contacts and bushings in the circuit breaker compartment, and joints/terminals in the cable connection compartment, etc.

Detecting PD in MV/HV GIS

Due to the sealed nature of GIS (Gas Insulated Switchgear), Partial Discharge (PD) signals propagate internally with minimal attenuation, often escaping through gaskets or cable entry joints. To sensitively detect these minute internal discharges, specialized sensors—either built-in or external UHF (Ultra-High Frequency) or TEV (Transient Earth Voltage) sensors—are installed directly on the GIS enclosure. Additionally, High-Frequency Current Transformers (HFCTs) are utilized at cable terminations to monitor the resulting pulse current flow through the grounding wire.

HV AIS

Detecting PD in MV/HV AIS

MV/HV AIS (Air Insulated Switchgear) is an open or semi-open structure, allowing internal Partial Discharge (PD) signals (electromagnetic waves, sound, and light) to escape through panels, vents, and openings. This makes non-contact PD monitoring effective: TEV (Transient Earth Voltage) sensors are installed on the inner or outer metal panels to detect the high-frequency voltage transients, while ultrasonic sensors are used to capture the acoustic signals. For comprehensive monitoring, a High-Frequency Current Transformer (HFCT) is also connected to the cable grounding terminal to detect PD activity in the connected cables.

Power Transformers

PD monitoring for Dry Type and Cast Resin Transformer

Partial discharges (PD) occurring within dry-type transformers generate high-frequency signals that propagate along the grounding system and metal casing to the equipment’s outer surface. These signals can be effectively detected by installing TEV (Transient Earth Voltage) sensors on the external panels. Furthermore, dry-type transformers also emit ultrasonic PD signals (typically in the 40 kHz range) from wiring sections or connection points. These acoustic signals can be easily captured by externally mounted ultrasonic sensors through ventilation openings and gaps in the casing.

PD monitoring for Oil Filled & Transmission Transformers

Partial discharges (PD) commonly occur within the main oil tank of oil-immersed transformers. Since the PD signal attenuates as it propagates through the oil, a UHF (Ultra-High Frequency) PD sensor is typically mounted inside the transformer tank to sensitively detect the radiated high-frequency energy.

Additionally, PD activity at the transformer’s cable terminations can be detected using both TEV (Transient Earth Voltage) sensors and HFCT (High-Frequency Current Transformer) sensors. The HFCT sensor is effectively used by clipping onto the transformer’s main grounding wire.

Turbo Generators

Partial discharge in the sub-windings of steam turbine generators mainly involves discharge between the winding insulation and the stator core slot walls, surface discharge in the winding end region (exposed to air), and air gap discharge within the insulation. PD monitoring in this context involves permanently installing coupling capacitors on the winding leads or neutral point to acquire and analyze PD pulse signals online.

Hydro Generators

Partial discharge in hydro turbine generators is similar to that in steam turbine generators, primarily relying on permanently installed coupling capacitors to extract high-frequency PD signals to identify insulation aging trends and discharges caused by winding loosening.

Hydro generators
electrical motors

Electrical Motors

Partial discharge monitoring in motors is mainly used to identify discharges caused by the stator windings and is commonly used to monitor compressor, pump, and fan drive motors above 3KV. Partial discharge activity is monitored by installing coupling capacitors in the motor junction box or using an HFCT sensor on the grounding wire.

MV HV EHV Cables

In MV to EHV cable systems, Partial Discharge (PD) monitoring is critical as defects in cable accessories (joints and terminations) are the leading cause of insulation failure. This process relies on utilizing a High-Frequency Current Transformer (HFCT) on the cable grounding wire to capture high-frequency PD pulse currents online. By applying Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) principles, this technology accurately diagnoses and locates PD activity, enabling continuous condition assessment and providing essential early fault warnings for critical cable lines.

Various PD Sensors for Partial Discharge detection

HFTC Sensor: a high-frequency current transformer to be installed on the cable terminals, the clamp version allows installation without out of service.

TEV sensor: a PD sensor with a special design that maximizes the sensitivity and ease of installation directly on the panels of the compartment.

Ultrasonic Sensors: aimed at the detection of partial discharges and arcing at low frequency, for those signals having some kHz content. Ultrasonic sensors are designed to increase the signal-to-noise ratio.
