This work discusses appearance of spontaneous partial discharge (PD) oscillations in specimen containing dielectrically isolated gas cavity as well as a measurement technique that allows to study such PD activity by quantifying the resulting excess current, which includes both fast PD current pulses and relatively slower charge movements. This is achieved through a comparison of currents measured...
In this paper, commercial bearing lubricants have been characterized with respect to their electrical properties as function of lubricant type, additives and usage. In a wider perspective, the research aims at studying, characterizing and modeling bearing currents and the associated premature failure of bearings within electrical generators of wind turbines. In parallel to the work presented here,...
Among the factors influencing partial discharge (PD) activity in insulation systems, deposition of electric charges on dielectrics significantly impact the subsequent behaviour. This work presents a measurement technique that allows studying the charge released during PD events by measuring the resulting excess current. The method, being similar to the dielectric response analysis, measures the current...
In the framework of elaborating a methodology for testing the resistance to electrical treeing of polyethylene (PE) for HVDC applications, electrical tree inception tests were performed before and after a thermal ageing on XLPE samples. For this purpose test objects of wire-plane electrode geometry were exposed to various voltage regimes. The obtained results show that a DC pre-stress followed by...
Solid dielectric material characterization is commonly performed through measurement of dielectric frequency response. A technique, called arbitrary waveform impedance spectroscopy (AWIS), has been developed as one of its modified versions. It is capable, among other features, of obtaining a broad dielectric response spectrum from one single measurement, provided the applied test voltage is rich in...
