    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.

    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.

    This paper represents the dielectric characteristics of the 22 kV underground cable test specimen. Two 3 m XLPE underground cables were connected with the heat-shrinkable joint that has been simulated with some artificial defects. The healthy heat-shrinkable terminations are at both ends of the cable test specimen. For this research, the underground cables with the healthy joint, the joint with a copper powder contaminant on the XLPE surface, and the joint with an incision on the XLPE surface were prepared to perform the experiment. To compare the dielectric characteristics of the underground cables with the healthy joint and degraded artificial joints, the polarization and depolarization currents (PDC) measurements and the very low frequency-tangent delta (VLF-TD) testing, according to IEEE standard 400.2-2013, were conducted. From the PDC measurements, the test results are not clearly different for the underground cables with the defective joint when compared to the healthy joint case, except for the electrical conductivity and insulation resistance that show the difference between them. The VLF tangent delta parameters and mean tangent delta comparison curve show differences in each case, which can contribute to assessing the condition of the underground cable systems.

    The main insulation used in plastic underground cables is cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE). The XLPE underground cable which has been utilized in service for a long time, has experienced various stresses, or so-called TEAM stresses. Consequently, the XLPE insulation will be degraded over time and lead to insulation properties degradation. This paper represents the dielectric response analysis technique for characterizing the insulation condition of the service-aged XLPE medium voltage underground cable. The dielectric response analysis was performed on the 22 kV XLPE underground cables that have been in service for more than 10 years and were directly buried. The dielectric response analysis measurement consists of a combination of polarization and depolarization current (PDC) measurement in the time-domain and frequency-domain spectroscopy (FDS) measurement. After that, test results were analyzed to evaluate the insulation condition and compare it to the new 22 kV underground cable. The analyzed dielectric response analysis test results will be reported in this paper.
