Abstract
In this paper, neural networks is studied to apply as a PD source classification in XLPE power cable specimen. For treeing discharge sources in the specimen, three defected models are made. And these data making use of a computer-aided discharge analyser, statistical and other discharge parameters is calculated to discrimination between different models of discharge sources. And also these parameter is applied to classify PD sources by neural networks. Neural Networks has good recognition rate for three PD sources.
