IPEC - On-Line Partial Discharge (PD) Spot Tester
The PD Detector is an on-line partial discharge (PD) spot tester for HV assets. The instrument detects TEV signals generated by internal discharge in Air Insulated Switchgear (AIS), acoustic discharge generated by surface tracking or corona, high-frequency signal generated by cable partial discharge, and ultra-high frequency signal generated by internal discharge in Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS). A mobile device receives data directly from the instrument for display and synchronisation with a central server.
Rapidly survey the whole substation
and detect MV and HV problems before they occur
ensure the substation is clear of PD before conducting work
only instrument available that allows the user to hear PD activity
auto separation when the device detects background Noise instead of real PD
fits in the user’s pocket and Is easy to use
allowing a whole day of testing without requiring a recharge
- Data synchronisation to central server
- Log and trend PD activity against particular assets
- Data integration with asset management systems
- Automatic high PD alerts to asset management team live from site
- Integrated Noise Detection Algorithm helps avoid ‘False Positives’
