    Low-voltage (LV) motors are widely used and highly popular in industrial settings due to their critical role in production processes. Any malfunction or failure of an LV motor can lead to production downtime, resulting in reduced output and potential revenue loss. Therefore, it is essential to conduct diagnostic assessments that evaluate the reliability of the insulation system in LV motors. Partial Discharge (PD) testing is recognized as a highly effective and reliable method for assessing the condition of motor insulation. This paper presents PD testing on LV motors to investigate the behavior of partial discharges using multiple analysis techniques. Additionally, an acoustic camera is integrated into the testing process to accurately identify the discharge locations.

    Detecting faults leading to potential failure of important power distributing transformers in the power system before an occurrence is an important attribute. Various inspection methods are available, however online PD and oil analysis remain the most preferred method. The methods mentioned do not require equipment shutdown. This paper introduces a case study of the 22kV transformer with online PD and DGA results indicating signs of problems in the insulation. The PD group found initially had an increase in density of signals during the three months and the magnitude shows an upward trend. DGA results found H2 and CH4 gas, the latter is a key gas indicating PD. Results show an increasing trend of almost three times as high during the latter half of the year. In addition, CO, CO2, and C2H6 gases were also found to be higher than average. Virtual inspection was conducted after the transformer was shut down. The surface is found to be uneven around the bus bar, causing high temperatures in the transformer which then impacts the insulation performance.

    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.

    This paper deals with applications of an innovative approach to on-line and off-line partial discharge (PD)-based condition maintenance, where PD detection and analytics are fully automatic and do not require the support of PD experts. PD was measured off-line on a 50 kV A, 22/0.4 kV distribution transformer and on 115 and 230 kV transformer bushings, showing in both cases that PD can be detected and analyzed automatically according to the SID (Separation, Recognition, Identification) procedure. On-line measurements performed on MV generators are also reported and discussed, highlighting that there is potential for on-line MV (and HV) monitoring with automatic and unsupervised noise rejection, and identification of PD phenomena that can feed health assessment software to reach optimized maintenance plans.

    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.

    This paper presents the partial discharge (PD) testing on the plug-in gas-insulated switchgear cable termination taken out of service. The shield electrodes were designed to geometrically electric field control in the area of the insulation screen edge of the cable part. The PD test of the cable termination was performed. In addition, a computed radiography technique with X-ray was also performed to evaluate the mechanical integrity of the supporting spring of the cable termination. The fatigue of the supporting spring was evidenced. Moreover, the cable termination was disassembled and re-assembled to perform the PD test again. The PD characteristics, including PD magnitude, PD inception voltage (PDIV), and phase-resolved PD (PRPD) patterns, were reported. The PD test results revealed that the PDIV was lower than the operating voltage. Besides, the PRPD patterns exhibited internal discharge inside the cable termination. From the PD test results and computed radiographic, it was assumed that they might be caused by discharge in the interface between the stress cone and epoxy insulator.

    The normal operating transformers encounter various kinds of stresses such as thermal stress, electrical stress, mechanical stress, and ambient effect that can expedite the deterioration process. Partial discharge occurs normally in high voltage equipment under high electric field. For a natural-immersed transformer, partial discharge can be detected by the dissolved gas analysis technique. This paper presents the patterns of dissolved gas generation in natural ester under partial discharge conditions. Besides, the existence of acidity number is also reported. Various types of partial discharge, including corona discharge, surface discharge, and the FR3 impregnated pressboard internal discharge, were simulated. A needle-plane electrode was used to simulate corona discharge, a needle-plane electrode with the impregnated pressboard was used to simulate surface discharge, whereas the plane electrode with pressboards was used to simulate the internal discharge. Each experiment was simulated in the test vessel under 24 kV test voltage for 3000 hours. The natural ester and the pressboards were heated at 80°C for 12 hours. before filled in the test vessel. Each test vessel was contained two identical plane electrodes with a 32 mm gap spacing. The impregnated pressboard was fit-inserted between such electrodes. The high voltage electrode was subjected to 24 kV whereas another plane electrode was grounded. Then, the natural ester were sampled from the vessel after operating for 350, 1000, and 3000 hours respectively. Dissolved gas analysis of the natural ester in this work followed ASTM D3612; the acidity number of aging natural ester was also tested according to ASTM D664. From the test results, it was found that different types of partial discharges generated various patterns of dissolved gas generation. Besides, the experiment with non-impregnated pressboards couldn't survive in this condition.

    This paper represents the polarization and depolarization current (PDC) of the natural ester stressed by partial discharge (PD). The needle-plane electrode was used to simulate corona discharge in natural ester. Besides, the needle electrode as a high voltage electrode placed on the 8 hours natural ester impregnated pressboards and the plane electrode as a grounded electrode were used to simulate the surface discharge. To simulate the internal discharge, the plane-plane electrode inserted with various condition impregnated pressboards were experimented. PD phenomena were simulated in the natural ester container for 1, 3, and 6 months. Then the PD-stressed natural ester was used as the liquid specimen for polarization and depolarization current measurement. It was found that the PDC characteristics of natural ester undergone with various PD types were obviously different.
