Surface corona discharge characteristics of a ac corona charged ferroelectric pellet barrier have been investigated experimentally. Electric charged stored on the surfaces of the ferroelectric pellets by a at corona discharge provide partial electric fields on the surfaces of the ferroelectric pellets, which could generate surface corona discharges on the ferroelectric pellets. This system utilizes both the surface discharges on the ferroelectric pellet barrier and the corona discharge between wire electrodes. As a result, in the case of the corona discharge with the ferroelectric pellet barrier, the mean corona current and ozone generation increase greatly, and the surface discharges on the ferroelectric pellets can be generated efficiently. It is also found that, the ferroelectric pellet barrier discharge reactor had better discharge characteristics for plasma generation than the wire-to-wire discharge reactor without pellets.

The proposed system was composed of pre-processor which was executing binary/high-pass filtering and post-processor which ranged from statistic data to prediction. In post-processor work, step one was filter process of image, step two was image recognition, and step three was destruction degree/time prediction. After these processing, we could predict image of the last destruction timestamp. This research was produced variation value according to growth of tree pattern. This result showed improved correction, when this research was applied image Processing. Pre-processing step of original image had good result binary work after high pas- filter execution. In the case of using partial discharge of the image, our research could predict the last destruction timestamp. By means of experimental data, this prediction system was acquired $\pm$3.2% error range.

Partial discharges(PD) in air, corona discharges, deteriorate the insulation strength. So, it is necessary to detect PD at an early stage before the system failure and extensive damage to the equipment. PD emit signals which can be detected by applying an capacitive electric field diagnosis. In this paper, We measured signals by capacitive electric field sensor and analyzed FFT from PD, and then compared conventional electric PD detecting method to capacitive electric field diagnosis by $\Psi-q-n$, $\Psi-v-n$, $\Psi-n$, $\Psi-q$ distributions.

In this paper, ultrsonic detection properties at a premolde joint utilized in a 23kV cables are studied. In a experiment a artificial defect within a joint and a measuring system are builded for generating discharges, gathering data about a detection properties, respectively. The experiment results show that one point detection is not allowed for monitoring a global status of a joint discharges and a detection sensitivity is less than 100pC. And also the attenuation and wave speed at the material of joint insulator are obtained.

The trend of partial discharges(PD) magnitude which occured in a artificial void at cable joint is investigated as the function of a time. The results have shown that more than 500pC could be sustained for the considerable duration so the efficiency of monitoring a PD magnitude for diagnosing cable joints is confirmed. The other defects at cable joints are now under the same test, we can get the experimental data sooner or later.

This paper deals with the dielectric behaviors of $SF_{6}$ gas and prebreakdown growth caused by lightning impulse voltages in inhomogeneous field perturbed with a fixed needle-shaped protrusion on the electrode. The measuring interpretation of the external current induced by moving charges is described. The temporal growth of prebreakdown is obserbed by using a shunt and photomultiplier. The prebreakdown processes are initiated by the first streamer corona at a needle protrustion, the flashover of the main gap in the positive polarity is very sensitive to the local field and propagates into the gap with the leader mechanism. It is found that the dependence of the prebreakdown phenomena on the polarity of applied voltages is caused by the effect of space charges. In addition, the proposed measuring techniques are very useful to perform the measurements of avalanche currents, corona discharges in inhomogeneous fields ad partial discharges in voids.

During normal machine operation, partial discharge(PD) measurements were performed with turbine generator analyzer(TGA) in five high voltage motors(rated 6.6kV). These high voltage motors were installed with 80pF capacitive couplers at the terminal box. The PD patterns were displayed two dimensional and three dimensional. TGA summarizes each plot with two quantities such as the normalized quantity number(NQN) and the peak PD magnitude(Qm). Off-line PD measurements were conducted on five motors. These motors were energized to 3.81kV. The PD levels in pC were measured with a conventional digital PD detector. The comparison of positive to negative PD indicates whether the defect elements of PD are within the insulation or on the insulation surface. Internal discharges were generated in phase A, B and C of COP-B and pulv.-B, in phase B of Pulv. C and in phase C of Pulv.-D motor. Discharge at conductor surface was discovered in phase A of Pulv. D motor. Slot discharges occurred in three phases of Pulv. E motor.

A novel technique has been proposed and related experimental works have been performed in order to detect the partial discharges and the location of the possible defects introduced into the Gas Insulated Switchgear. For this purpose, a prototype HY Pockels sensor has been developed and then employed in order to investigate its field applicability for finding the location of the defects using a 170kV GIS mock-up. Our proposed sensor enables us to measure the electric field variation due to the PD occurrence. In addition, the different PD patterns are observed, which might be dependant on the location and the distance of the sensor with respect to the PD source. Throughout this work, its linear response has been proved to be admissible as a function of the applied voltage. And also the position of the PD source might be distinguished by comparing the PD patterns.

In this study, a relationship between partial discharge and the radiated electromagnetic waves is investigated by measuring electromagnetic waves using a biconical antenna and a spectrum analyzer. The patterns of frequency spectrum of radiated electromagnetic waves measured at the atmospheric pressure in Liquid Nitrogen($LN_2$) during the partial discharges in nonuniform electric field depend on positive DC power. From these points of view. it is considered that these results obtained from this investigation may be used as fundamental data for diagnosis and prediction of insulation on the equipments of superconducting and cryogenic applications.

This paper describes the propagation characteristics of acoustic signals as a function of distance from the location of partial discharge(PD) occurrence to analyze correlation between discharge magnitude and acoustic signal in insulation oil. We fabricated a decoupler and an amplifier to measure acoustic signals produced by PD. The amplifier has the gain of 40 dB and the frequency bandwidth of 1.6 kHz~1.6 MHz. After a comparative calibration by a standard pulse generator and a coupling capacitor, we analyzed the propagation characteristics of acoustic signals in insulation oil as a function of distance.
