Practical Partial Discharge Measurement on Electrical Equipment (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu

Description

Accessible reference dealing with (partial discharge) PD measurement in all types of high voltage equipment using modern digital PD detectors

Practical Partial Discharge Measurement on Medium and High Voltage Electrical Equipment is a timely update in the field of partial discharges (PD), covering both holistic concepts and specific modern applications in one volume. The first half of the book educates the reader on what PD is and the general principles of how it is measured and interpreted. The second half of the book is similar to a handbook, with a chapter devoted to PD measurements in each type of HV equipment. These chapters contain specific information of the insulation system design, causes of PD in that equipment, off-line and on-line measurement methods, interpretation methods, and relevant standards.

The work is authored by two well-known experts in the field of PD measurement who

have published hundreds of technical papers on the subject and performed thousands of PD

measurements on all the different types of HV equipment covered in the book. Both authors also have had relationships with PD detector manufacturers, giving them key insights into test instruments and practical measurements.

Sample topics covered in the work include:

• Physics of PD, discharge phenomena (contact sparking and vibration sparking), and an introduction to PD measurement (electrical, optical, acoustic, and chemical)
• Electrical PD detection (types of sensors), RF PD detection (antenna, TEV), and PD instrumentation and display
• Off-line and on-line PD measurements, general principles of PD interpretation, and laboratory PD testing of lumped test objects
• PD in different types of HV equipment (power cables, power transformers, air insulated metal-clad switchgear, and more)

For HV equipment OEMs, users of HV equipment, or employees of companies that provide PD testing services to clients, Practical Partial Discharge Measurement on Medium and High Voltage Electrical Equipment is an essential reference to help understand general concepts about the topic and receive expert guidance during specific practical applications.
