Abstract
A study on the influence of supply voltage magnitude and frequency on partial discharge (PD) pulse shapes is presented in this paper. Ultrawide band (UWB) time resolved PD pulse measurements were carried out on artificial PD defects using test voltage frequency range of 10-400 Hz and voltage range of 2-11 kV. The manner in which the PD pulse shape responded to changes in the test voltage characteristics depended on the defect type. The observations can be interpreted using the generally agreed theory of PD mechanisms. The knowledge generated in this work is valuable in the interpretation and comparison of PD measurements made at different voltages and frequencies. It also contributes to development of PD defect classification techniques based on the correlation between test voltage frequency and time-resolved PD.
