An overview of state-of-the-art partial discharge analysis techniques for condition monitoring

As one step toward the future smart grid, condition monitoring is important to facilitate the reliability of grid asset operation and to save on maintenance cost [1]. Most failures of the power grid are caused by electrical insulation failure, and a key indicator of such electrical failure is the occurrence of partial discharge (PD). Therefore, one focus of condition monitoring is to detect PD, especially in the early stages, to prevent a serious power failure or outage.
