The part

This term has also been used to refer

20、 to partialdischarges in general.3.1.4 continuous partial discharges (continuous corona)discharges that recur at rather regular intervals; for example onapproximately every cycle of an alternating voltage or at leastonce per minute for an applied direct voltage.3.1.5 partial discharge (corona) incep

21、tion voltage (PDIVCIV)the lowest voltage at which continuous partial dis-charges above some stated magnitude (which may define thelimit of permissible background noise) occur as the appliedvoltage is gradually increased (Note 1). Where the appliedvoltage is alternating, the PDIV is expressed as 1/=2

22、ofthepeak voltage. Many test and specimen parameters can affectthis value, and in some cases reproducibility may be difficult toachieve.NOTE 1Many factors may influence the value of the PDIV and PDEVincluding the rate at which the voltage is increased or decreased as well asthe previous history of t

23、he voltage applied to the specimen. In many casesit may be difficult to obtain the same value with subsequent tests.Moreover, the “continuous” character of the partial discharges issometimes quite difficult to define, and an arbitrary judgment in thisrespect may lead to different values of the PDIV

24、or PDEV.3.1.6 partial discharge (corona) extinction voltage (PDEVCEV)the highest voltage at which partial discharges abovesome stated magnitude no longer occur as the applied voltageis gradually decreased from above the inception voltage (seeNote 1). Where the applied voltage is alternating, the PDE

Many test andspecimen parameters can affect this value, and in some casesreproducibility may be difficult to achieve.3.1.7 partial discharge pulse voltage (Vt)the terminalpulse voltage resulting from a partial discharge represented asa voltage source sudden

The shape, rise time, and magnitude of the voltageVtof the partial discharge pulse are dependent upon thegeometry of the cavity, its

27、size, nature of its boundaries, thetype of gas and the pressure within as well as the parameters ofthe transmission medium between the discharge site and thepartial discharge pulse detector. The partial discharge pulses ofthe spark-type discharge will have substantially shorter risetimes than those

28、of the glow-type (10).3.1.8 partial discharge quantity (terminal corona charge)(Qt)the magnitude of an individual discharge in an insulationsystem expressed in terms of the charge transfer measured atthe system terminals. The measured charge is in general notequal to the charge transferred at the di

29、scharge site, and doeshave a relation to the discharge energy. For a small specimenthat can be treated as a simple lumped capacitor, it is equal tothe product of the capacitance of the insulation system and thepartial discharge pulse voltage, that is:Qt5 CtVt(1)where:Qt= partial discharge quantity,

The quadratic rate is

33、 expressed as(coulombs)2per second.3.1.12 partial discharge (corona) energy (W) the energydrawn from the test voltage source as the result of an individualdischarge. It is the product of the magnitude Q of that dischargeand the instantaneous value V of the voltage across the testspecimen at the ince

Thus thedischarge energy of the ith pulse is:Wi5 QiVi(3)where:Wi= the discharge energy, Ws( = J),Qi= the partial discharge magnitude, (see 3.1.8), andD1868072Vi= the instantaneous value of the applied test voltage atthe time of the discharge, V.3.1.13 partial discharge (

36、i= the discharge energy of the ith pulse (see 3.1.12).When partial discharge pulse-height analysis is performedover a one-second interval, then the power dissapated, P, can bedetermined from:P 5(j 5 1injQjVj(5)where:P = pulse discharge power loss, W,nj= recurrence rate of the jth discharge pulse in

41、Summary of Test Method4.1 A specimen insulation system is energized in a testcircuit by a high-voltage source.Apartial discharge (corona) inthe specimen will cause a sudden charge transfer and aresulting voltage pulse at the specimen terminals. A measuringinstrument coupled to the terminals may be c

42、alibrated torespond to the voltage pulse in terms of the charge transferredat the terminals.5. Significance and Use5.1 The presence of partial discharges (corona) at operatingvoltage in an insulation system may result in a significantreduction in the life of the insulating material. Some materialsar

43、e more susceptible to such discharge damage than others.This characteristic can be investigated using Test MethodD 2275.5.2 The presence of partial discharges (corona) in an appar-ently solid insulation may be an indication of the existence ofinternal cavities. Partial discharge tests have been usef

44、ul in thedesign and inspection of molded, laminated, and compositeinsulation, as well as specimens in the form of cables,capacitors, transformers, bushings, stator bars, and rotatingmachines (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (8), (9), (12), and (13).(See also AEIC CS5-87, ICEA T-24-380, IEEE 48, IE

45、EE C57113-1991, IEEE C57 124-1991, and IEEE 1434-2005.)5.3 Partial discharge (corona) inception and extinction volt-ages are used in the determination of the limiting voltage atwhich an insulation system will operate free of such dis-charges. The extinction voltage is often substantially lowerthan t

46、he inception voltage. Where the operating voltage isbelow the inception voltage but above the extinction voltage, atransient over-voltage may initiate discharges which thencontinue until the voltage is lowered below the extinctionvoltage. Inception and extinction voltages depend upon manyfactors, in

47、cluding temperature and the rate at which the voltageis changed. After a time at a voltage, discharges may start andstop in a nonuniform and unpredictable fashion, especially fordischarges within cavities in certain materials, in particular ifthe discharge degradation products formed are conductive

48、(1),(5).5.4 The magnitude (pulse height) of a partial discharge is anindication of the amount of energy that it dissipates in theinsulation system. Partial discharge magnitude and pulse rateare useful in estimating the rate, or change of rate, at whichdeterioration is produced.5.5 In general, the oc

49、currence of partial discharges is notdirectly related to the basic properties of a solid insulatingmaterial, but usually results from overstressing of gaseousocclusions or similar imperfections or discontinuities in aninsulating system. Partial discharges may originate at locationssuch as on the leads or terminals without resulting in anyhazard within the main part of the insulation system.6. Interference6.1 Radiated or conducted electrical disturbances fromsources other than the test specimen may interfere with themeasurement of partial discharges. The magni
