Abstract
In this paper, the performance of a high-frequency current transducer (HFCT) for partial discharge measurement under testing with a power frequency converter is presented. The performances of the HFCT in comparison with the conventional partial discharge detection system (Omicron MPD600) were investigated terms of the ability to classify partial discharges and the background noises in the system from PD test cells in case of corona discharge, internal discharge and surface discharge. It's found that the presented system provides the better performances (in terms of the background noise) than conventional PD detection system and it can also be used to distinguish type of partial discharges. In addition, the presented system has been used for the real partial test on the PD test cells successfully. The HFCT for PD detection is an attractive choice in the PD tests of high-voltage equipment.
