Abstract:
Partial Discharge (PD) measurement is a new approach to find out insulation condition in power cables.Partial discharge (PD) inception test using conventional techniques covered in IEC 60270 and perform on the newly produced Cross linked poly ethylene XLPE cable. This test carried in PD lab Faraday cage where outer noise and electromagnetic fields not disturbed for testing fundamental condition. In PD testing main resonance reactor or HV transformer (LVDT) required for applying high voltage on cable, coupling capacitor, blocking capacitor with inductor for filtering harmonics.
