Theory The instrument detects and quantifies partial discharges (PD) in a high voltage test object. The detection technology fulfils the current and forthcoming international standard IEC 270 [1]or IEC 60270 [2]. Fig. 1 shows the principle of the measurement. In the insulation of the test object (C t ), under high voltage stress, localised electrical discharges can be generated. These discharges, which appear in general as individual events of very short duration, are called partial discharges. They do not immediately result in breakdown of the insulation but with time they can slowly damage the insulation and finally lead to a breakdown. The partial discharges generate short duration current pulses at the terminals of the test object and in the PD test circuit. A so called coupling capacitor (C k ) is connected parallel to the test object. Through C k also the PD current pulses will flow. The integral of the individual current pulses is the so called apparent charge of a PD event. According to IEC 60270, the capacitance of C k shall be higher than the capacitance of the test object (C t ). The apparent charge is the basic quantity of the partial discharges in the test object. From this quantity, many other quantities related to PD pulses can be derived, as e.g. the average discharge current I or discharge power P (see [2]). Presco AG PD_Marketing.doc page 4 of 17 The coupling device has the purpose to separate the PD current pulses from the power frequency test voltage circuit. The coupling device, used in the measuring system, has more purposes: - At on higher frequencies (20 kHz ... 2 MHz) it shows an input impedance of 200O (or 500 O). - For test-voltage frequencies (45 Hz .. 450 Hz) it works as a voltage divider. The divider- capacitance is called C div and it has normally a value of 1 F. Therefore, this device separates first the low frequency voltage and the high frequency current, then transforms the partial-discharge proportional current to voltage and mixes the low frequency and high frequency voltages in a cable with 50 O impedance characteristic. The partial discharge detector separates the low and high frequency voltages. The voltage proportional to the partial discharge current pulses will be amplified and a low- pass filter makes the so called quasi-integration [3]. The peak value of the output impulse-voltage of the filter is proportional to the charge delivered by an individual PD current pulse. A peak-detector generates a voltage proportional to the repetitive peak values and this signal is then digitally filtered and displayed on a LED display. The displayed value is proportional to the largest repeatedly - occurring PD-magnitude of the apparent charge q as specified within the standards, as the peak-detector fulfils the pulse-train response of the newest standard IEC 60270. The low frequency path of the detector processes the high voltage on the test object. The separated low frequency voltage is fed to an A/D converter, located in the microcontroller of the detector and it will be there sampled and processed. The processed value is sent to a LCD screen. Presco AG PD_Marketing.doc page 5 of 17 According to all relevant standard, the PD test and measuring circuit must be calibrated before all measurements. This calibration is performed by means of a calibrator: The calibrator is made basically from a voltage step-generator (U s ) and a capacitor (C c ) as shown in Fig.2.: If C c << C t , the injected charge on the terminal of C t is: q U C s c = . The rise time (10%) of the step voltage must be lower than 60 ns (IEC 60270). Since the injected charge is known, the whole circuit can be calibrated, this means that, the deflection of the recording instrument can be related to the calibration charge. Summary The PD detector measures the partial discharges by a direct analogue amplifier, quasi- integration filter and analogue peak-detector channel, without any interrupt. Nevertheless, all functions of the instrument are controlled by a local processor. Presco AG PD_Marketing.doc page 6 of 17 3.

Options / Accessories 5.1 Coupling Capacitors As a rule of thumb, the capacitance of the coupling capacitor is to be equal or higher than the capacitance of the object to be tested. In many cases a coupling capacitor with a capacitance of 1 nF (1'000 pF) will be suitable. Except for PD measurement on long cables one has to use a 10 nF one. Presco can offer coupling capacitors rated e.g. from 10 kV up to nearly any voltage.

With this data recording statistics are provided which contains the information how many discharges occurred with which level and at which phase.

With it two identical objects, one which is known as good and one as test object. Small differences between the two objects are balanced with the bridge and with it, common mode noise / interference is cancelled.

PD is expressed in pC (pico Coulomb) which is a very small quantity (pico is equal to a factor 10 -12 ). A PD impulse is an very fast transient of some nano seconds up to some micro seconds. Such an impulse has a spectra beginning at some KHz up to max. 1 MHz. A PD detector according to IEC60270 has a frequency band from 20 kHz up to e.g. 200 kHz (or 400 kHz). As one can imagine, all signals inside this frequency band might be picked up by the PD detector / system as noise/interference. Because one cannot distinguish between impulses / signals of interference and real PD impulses, the noise / interference is interpreted as PD and this leads to the problem that PD of a specific object cannot be detected because noise / interference is higher that the real PD signal. In this case we are talking about a too high back ground noise level. Facts to be considered : - Back ground noise level has NOTHING to do with a specific PD detector. Todays PD detectors have an internal noise of approx. 0.3 pC only (far lower for cable PD systems). - In an industrial environment there are always some interference sources. - Most important is a correct test set-up and a good grounding system. - A coupling capacitor with a too low capacitance will lead to low sensitivity and a high back ground noise level. To overcome the noise / interference problem, there are two possibilities : a) To use a PD detector with noise reduction features, such as different filters or a tuneable narrow band filter, gating, PD bridge. Maybe this helps but please be aware that with such a system, the noise / interference is "playing" with the operator every day. Although maybe the initial costs for the PD system are low, this is something expensive over the years if the time which is lost every day is considered or b) To be aware of noise / interference and to consider some initial costs to set-up the PD test system in order to have a suitable low back ground noise level. This way the operator has newer to take care on interference any more and this will safe costs over the years. In case the PD system is purchased from Presco, our customers can count on our know how to get a PD system as per the specific requirements. Our proposal is : - Specify the required back ground noise level considering the standards. E.g. for voltage transformers one has to verify a PD level of < 5 pC and with it the back ground noise should not exceed 2.5 pC. - Set-up the system as per our advises - Analyse the situation according our advises - Get the needed measures from us against the specific interference sources
