Abstract

Power capacitors are highly reliable equipment due to their completely enclosed configuration. Aging diagnosis system using partial discharge(PD) and acoustic emission(AE) is being highlighted as a research area for degradation of power capacitors. Their dielectric strength can be however reduced due to some stresses such as over-voltage or thermal degradation of the insulation material during their long period of operation. In this paper, it has been developed to express the AE of the EVENT(average amplitude) and HIT(pulse count) according to the source location. And real time measurement of PD signals for aging diagnosis of power capacitors.
