    Dry-type cast resin transformers, utilizing epoxy resin insulation instead of traditional liquid insulation like mineral oil, are designed to prioritize safety, avoid fire hazards, be environmentally compatible, and endure short circuits well. Limitations of dry-type transformers are the installation area by which it should be dry, free from dust, excessive moisture, fertilizers, chemicals, and other corrosive fumes or fumes. This paper investigates the Partial Discharge (PD) phenomena occurring on a 12 kV dry-type transformer surface using HighFrequency Current Transformers (HFCT) with 100 kHz -20 MHz bandwidth as a PD detection device. The simulated PD sources were made from the conductive wire. Moreover, the scheme of winding connections in the dry-type transformer related to cross-talk phenomena between transformer coils is also reported. The recorded Phase-resolved PD (PRPD) and the PD Inception Voltage (PDIV) have been summarized and compared, as described in this paper.

    A failure of a medium voltage (MV) motor during its operation could force an outage of the power plant and also lead to a loss of cost. Hence, the method to ensure the insulation quality of such a motor is needed. Partial discharge (PD) testing is one of the effective methods used to determine the defect and evaluate the integrity of the machine insulation. This paper presents the application of off-line PD testing on MV motors. In the experiment, the PD test instrument conforming to standard IEC 60270 was used as a charge-based measurement. Moreover, during the PD testing, an acoustic imaging camera was employed as an alternative technique for locating the PD sources in the stator winding part. Once PD takes place, it can generate the pressure acoustic wave that propagates surrounding the PD source. Thus, the PD source in the area of endwinding can be located by this technique. From the charge-based PD test results, the phase-resolved PD (PRPD) pattern was considered to identify the type of PD source. It was found that almost MV motors tested have delamination in the bulk insulation. In some cases, the PRPD pattern exhibits the discharge in the area of the overlap region between the semiconductive and stress grading coating in the slot exit, which confirms by using the acoustic technique.
