Partial discharge (PD) usually reflects failures and potential hazards of equipment, so PD detection is important to protect the power system. The most reliable method now is the pulse current method (PCM), but the device of PCM is large and hard to carry. Ultraviolet (UV) pulse detection is another method to detect PD, which has a high precision, strong anti-interference ability, and a long effective distance. However, the existing detection system does not work well when the PD is weak and can hardly reflect the hidden trouble of equipment. This paper introduces an improved PD detection system, based on the UV Pulse Method, which is of high precision and can reflect early discharge. In this study, a corresponding detection device was also built. This device is handheld, non-contact, easy to use, and of high precision.

Partial discharges are the major cause of deterioration in the insulation characteristics of switchgears. Therefore, timely detection of partial discharge in switchgear and potential insulation faults is an urgent problem that needs to be addressed in the power supervision industry. In this study, a device was proposed for online monitoring of high-voltage switchgears based on pulse current method and ozone (O3) detection. The pulse current method obtains the PD signal by monitoring the phase holes on the switch indicator. Occurrence of a partial discharge in a certain phase leads to the production of a discharge pulse, which can be coupled out by a capacitive sensor. The current spectrum and the O3 produced by partial discharge were processed via fast Fourier transform for accurate diagnosis of the occurrence of partial discharge and its severity in switchgears. The proposed method allows for convenient acquisition of the partial discharge signal, simple installation of the device, and realization with inexpensive sensors.

This Paper studied the typical PD in GIS by ultrasonic method. A GIS PD simulating and testing system is established, including a PD simulating system, an ultrasonic detecting system and a conventional pulse current method measurement system. The thesis focuses on four typical kinds of PD signals in GIS, including metal particles, bad contacts on high and grounding potential conductor, the protrusion on the high potential conductor. The statistics characteristics are obtained which include N-Φ spectrogram (relationship between discharge frequency and discharge phase Spectrogram) and Umax-Φ spectrogram (relationship between discharge amplitude and discharge phase Spectrogram). Experimental results show that low-frequency ultrasonic sensors can detect this four PD signals, signal spectra analysis shows that ultrasonic signals of different statistical model are with different characteristics. The results provide test data for the pattern recognition of Partial Discharge in GIS.

Gas insulated switchgear (GIS) has excellent performances such as small area, not affected by atmosphere, high reliability. So it has been used more and more widely in the power system. However, But the partial discharge (PD) would occur because of insulation defect, PD will lead to the GIS insulation damage after a long time, and will lead to serious consequences without treatment in time, therefore, the PD detection is particularly important. Article simulates the high voltage conductor spikes, basin insulator metal particles on the surface and the shell spike the insulation of the three kinds of typical defects, using the pulse current method and ultrasonic method to test partial discharge signals and get the corresponding signal characteristics, which play a certain guiding significance for field applications.

The phenomenon that often arises in a substation is the problem of partial discharge in outgoing cable insulation. Partial discharge is a jump of positive and negative ions that are not supposed to meet so that it can cause a spark jump. If a partial discharge is left too long it can cause insulation failure, the sound of snakes like hissing and the most can cause a flashover on the outgoing cable. Then a partial discharge detection prototype was made in the cable insulation in order to anticipate the isolation interference in the outgoing cable. Can simplify the work of substation operators to check the reliability of insulation on the outgoing side of each cubicle. So it was compiled as a method for measuring sound waves caused by partial discharge in the process of measuring using a microphone sensor, the Arduino Mega 2560 module as a microcontroller, the LCD TFT as a monitoring and the MicroSD card module as its storage. The microphone sensor is a sensor that has a high sensitivity to sound, has 2 analog and digital readings, and is easily designed with a microcontroller. Basically the unit of measure measured at partial discharge is Decibels. The results of the prototype can be applied to the cubicle and the way it works is to match the prototype to the outgoing cubicle cable then measure from the cable boots connector to the bottom of the outgoing cable with a distance of 1 meter. Then the measurement results will be monitored on the TFT LCD screen in the form of measurement results, graphs and categories on partial discharge. In this design the measurement data made by the microphone can be stored with microSD so that it can make an evaluation of partial discharge handling in outgoing cable insulation.
