In this article, a portable XLPE cable insulation detection device is introduced. Such a device utilizes electromagnetic coupling, UHF electromagnetic wave and acoustic emission to detect partial discharge signals in power cables. By analyzing the partial discharge signals and cable temperatures, the insulation status of XLPE power cables is judged.

A partial discharge (PD) on-line monitoring and positioning system for high-voltage cables based on double-ended testing technology is developed. The hardware of this system includes a high-frequency current sensor, site PD signal acquisition and PD monitoring server. In order to achieve real-time monitoring and remote diagnostics of the XLPE cable partial discharge status, the designed software system is divided into front-end control system and remote diagnostic system. And finally, the correctness and effectiveness of the system is verified by XLPE cable partial discharge testing.

High voltage assets play a vital role in providing uninterrupted power to the consumers and any slight problems experienced by the assets may cause losses in millions of dollars to businesses. Therefore it is of utmost importance to monitor the health of high voltage assets. This research presents the development process of a Partial Discharge (PD) device that is able to detect PD acoustic waves for monitoring high voltage assets purposes. Medium voltage Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) cable was used which was introduced with spherical void defects at the joints of the cable that functioned to produce PD acoustic waves. Outcome of the development processes provides the finished design of the PD sensing device, known as Partial Discharge Detection (PDD) device. The functionality of the PDD device was also assessed through controlled experimentations, and they proved to be successful. Pure PD waveform captured by the ultrasonic sensor was similar when compared to a HFCT sensor’s pure PD waveform. The PDD device is a small and affordable, and is opened to various improvements such as integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) unto the device, and one day may replace most existing bulky and expensive PD sensing devices that are readily available in the market.

For 110 kV and above tunnel-installed high-voltage (HV) cross-linked poly-ethylene (XLPE) cable systems, it is a normal procedure to adopt a cross-bonding scheme. The high-frequency current method is frequently used in the cross-bonded cable systems for on-site or online partial discharge (PD) detection by monitoring the signals on the cross-bonding wires. To further study the amplitude distribution characteristics of the PD signals, a parametric characteristic admittance model of a three-phase cable system in a tunnel is established based on Tylavsky’s formulas. The model is used to calculate the amplitude distribution formula of the PD pulse current on the cross-bonding wires. In addition, the influence of cable laying and tunnel environment on the amplitude distribution is also studied. Finally, the correctness of the model and the conclusion are verified by simulation experiments and on-site tests. The results show that the signal amplitude distribution is determined by the ratio of the characteristic admittances. As the distance between the cables and the distance from the inner wall of the tunnel increase, the amplitude difference gradually decreases.
