PD(Partial discharges) are small electrical sparks that occur within the electric insulation of cables, transformers and windings on motors. PD analysis is a proactive diagnostic approach that uses PD measurements to evaluate the integrity of this equipment. Recently, several diagnostic algorithms for classifying the type of PD and locating the defect position have been developed. In this work, a new PD recognition system is proposed, which utilizes approximate coefficients of wavelet transform as a feature vector, furthermore, introduces bank of Elman networks to recognize the various PD phenomena. In order to verify the performance of the proposed scheme, it is applied to the simulated PD data.

This paper reports on a flexible and biocompatible platinum thermoresistive temperature sensor for the application of an ultrasonic resonance thrombolysis device for ischemic stroke. The proposed flexible platinum temperature sensor consists of a polyimide substrate, a platinum thermoresistive element and a polyimide insulation layer. The temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) and sensitivity of the designed temperature sensor were measured and calculated to be $2.63{\times}10^{-3}/^{\circ}C$ and $0.93^{\circ}C/sec$, respectively.

As higher reliability on generator facilities is required to early detect incipient faults, a diagnostic system for predictive maintenance of the facility is highly recommended. In this paper, an expert system is developed suing the CLIPS - expert system tool - utilizing the knowledge on the insulation diagnosis and the vibration diagnosis on the rotating machines. This expert system, with user - friendly interface for operator, is easy to revise and add diagnostic rules and knowledge.

The paper considers the relation between on-line monitoring and diagnostics on the one hand and high-voltage (HV) withstand and partial discharge (PD) on-site testing on the other. HV testing supplies the basic data (fingerprints) for diagnostics. In case of warnings by on-line diagnostic systems, off-line withstand and PD testing delivers the best possible information about defects and enables the classification of the risk. Because alternating voltage (AC) is the most important test voltage, the AC generation on site is considered. Frequency tuned resonant (ACRF) test systems are best adapted to on-site conditions. They can be simply combined with PD measuring equipment. The available ACRF test systems and their application to electric power equipment -from cable systems to power transformers - is introduced.

In this paper, the breakdown strength of Pure HDPE(High density polyethylene) films and aged HDPE films were evaluated using 2-parameter Weibull distribution function. The result show that both were fitted 2-parameter Weibull distribution. This method could be used to be the diagnostic tool to evalute the insulation performance and endurance under the multiple stresses.

The cable degradation process is largely divided into three steps; Step 1 : Thermal degradation, Step 2 : Weibull degradation, Step 3 : Partial discharge. it is progress in step order. This article aims to explain the process of cable degradation using the method of insulation resistance and accordingly to compose and manufacture a system of measuring the life of electrical cable. Before measuring the insulation resistance, a system of measuring the temperature and current of cables was made, and the established system was installed for test on the site of a power plant to collect the measured data. The current sensor was used TFC30P80A-CL420, and temperature sensor was used the DK-1270 PT100 sensor as RTD sensor. When measured the temperature and the load current at the same position, was confirmed that in case of the load current value was high, also temperature value high. Therefore, the correlation between load currents and temperature was verified, and the analysis of diagnostic data was evaluated, which could be utilized in identifying the fault condition of cable systems.

The global assessment system for medium voltage power cable systems has been developed The minimum purpose of diagnostic activity is the economic discrimination and maintenance of bad cables which is likely to cause cable system failure. I have adapted the Aging Time Constant Method to construct the power cable assessment system for the diagnostic purpose. From the field application test and breakdown test results, it could be concluded that the diagnostic system was successful art convenient for the discrimination and maintenance of the bad cables, which is likely to fail sooner or later, economically.

Large Power transformer is a complex and critical component of power plant and consists of cellulosic paper, insulation oil, core, coil etc. Insulation materials of transformer and related equipment break down to liberate dissolved gas due to corona, partial discharge, pyrolysis or thermal decomposition. The dissolved gas kinds can be related to the type of electrical faults, and the rate of gas generation can indicate the severity of the fault. The identities of gases being generated are using very useful to decide the condition of transformation status. Therefore dissolved gas analysis is one of the best condition monitoring methods for power transformer. Also, on-line multi-gas analyzer has been developed and installed to monitor the condition of critical transformers. Rogers method, IEC method, key gas method and Duval Triangle method are used to failure diagnosis typically, and those methods are using the ratio or kinds of dissolved gas to evaluate the condition of transformer. This paper analyzes the reliability of transformer diagnostic methods considering actual dissolved gas concentration. Fault diagnosis is performed based on the dissolved gas of five transformers which experienced various fault respectively in the field, and the diagnosis result is compared with the actual off-line fault analysis. In this comparison result, Diagnostic methods using dissolved gas ratio like Rogers method, IEC method are sometimes fall outside the ratio code and no diagnosis but Duval triangle method and Key gas method is correct comparatively.

This paper simulated partial discharge caused by 22.9[kV] power cable using XLPE(Peroxide Crosslinkable Polyethylene) insulation having the outside damage. As one of the insulation diagnostic method a radiated electromagnetic waves were measured by an UHF method using a BiconiLog antenna(EMCO-3142) and a spectrum analyzer used to measure EMI, EMC. From results of this study, It was confirmed that discharge Ogress were possible to be estimated by the proposed method.

To find effective diagnostic method for Transmission OF cables, various characterizations were carried such as DGA (dissolved gas analysis), water contents, total acidity and AC breakdown voltage. It was found that the result was varied by sampling and container. The results from those characterization method showed the present condition and history very well and could be used to estimate the degree of degradation of cables.
