Abstract
In this research, we aim to construct a completely new partial discharge (PD) monitoring system that applies inexpensive power line communication (PLC). We have proposed a PD detection method and monitoring system (PDMS-PLC) on the basis of PLC signal transfer rare is affected by an error due to disturbance. An attempt is made to identify PD source from the quadrant dependence of information transmission rate (hereinafter referred to PHY rate [Mbps]) by selecting a pair of quadrants of applied voltage phase; i.e. 1st and 3rd quadrants, or 2nd and 4th ones. It was found that the PHY (Abbreviation for the lowest physical layer in the OSI (open systems interconnection) hierarchical model.) rate number distribution reflects the PD characteristics obtained by the phase resolved PD (PRPD) pattern. Environmental noise level is also measured at an actual substation using PDMS-PLC. Consequently, the applicability of PDMS-PLC to PD signal detection and defect type identification is suggested.
