Transformer failures are mostly due to partial discharges (PDs) caused by the deteriorated insulation. It is, therefore, important to monitor PD occurrence in insulation system and prevent their deterioration. The presented paper deals with a PD detection method by a capacitive probe, which easily apply to cast - resin dry - type transformers. The PD detection system consists of a capacitive probe and a low noise amplifier having the frequency bandwidth of 500 $Hz{\sim}30$ MHz. In the experimental set-up, sensitivity of the system is 7.16 mV/pC.

Various sensors such as capacitive probe, high frequency current transformer (HFCT), and acoustic emission (AE) probe were applied to a cast resin dry type transformer for partial discharge detection. We designed and fabricated a wideband low-noise amplifier having a gain of 40[dB]. From the experiment which was carried out in the same transformer, the sensitivities were 7.16[mV/pC] for capacitive probe, 3.8[mV/pC] for HFCT, and 17.9[mV/pC] for AE probe.

This paper presented the charcteristic of the thermal transfer in a 50[kVA] cast-resin dry type transformer. The conductivity of the primary winding composed were a Plenty of epoxy-resin ard a little of Cu was determined by that rating. Otherwise the conductivity of the secondary winding composed of a plenty of Cu and a little of epoxy-resin was determined by comparing the data of analysis using FEM method with those of temperature tests of the prototype cast-resin transformer. Based on the reults of the physical characteristics and the simulation by commercial using FEM method we established the prototype Model for this test. According to that Model, an analysis on variation of the temperature was discussed as a function of ambient temperature and velocities in the 50[kVA] cast-resin dry type transformer.

This paper presented the characteristic of Heat-transfer on the winding composed with Epoxy-resin in a 50 kVA cast-resin dry type transformer The resin cast transformer is used widely in supplying electricity systems. However, to know the thermal characteristics of that is very useful in designing, manufacturing, and maintaining, there is no pertinent method to calculate this. In this paper, Based on the results of the physical characteristics and the simulation by commercial software using FEM method, we established the Prototype Model for this. According to that Model, an analysis on a variation of the hottest spot temperature was discussed as a function of thermal conductivity for the individual windings composed with Epoxy-resin. The thermal conductivity of the individual windings with reference to upper way was discussed.
