Partial discharge measurement and modelling within an artificial cylindrical-shaped insulation under non-uniform electric field / Mohsin Ali Tunio

In the presence of void in cable insulation, repetition of partial discharge (PD) occurrences is one of the main sources of insulation degradation, which may lead to complete breakdown. Therefore, it is important to monitor the condition of cable insulation through PD measurement. Replicating PD mea...

Electronics Nuclear engineering In the presence of void in cable insulation, repetition of partial discharge (PD) occurrences is one of the main sources of insulation degradation, which may lead to complete breakdown.
