A Review on Partial Discharge Behavior in Insulators

The insulation quality plays a vital role in high voltage power system equipment. It has been seen by power engineers that one of the major problems in high voltage (HV) power system is breakdown of insulators or degradation of insulators. Modeling of the partial discharge (PD) process allows a better understanding of the phenomena. Partial discharge inception, propagation and breakdown (BD) characteristics under ac voltage application were obtained and discussed at atmospheric and pressurized conditions. Therefore it is necessary to monitor the condition of the insulation property .Modeling of the partial discharge process allows a better understanding of the phenomena. Partial discharge (PD) inception, propagation and breakdown characteristics under ac voltage application were obtained and discussed at atmospheric and pressurized conditions. A comprehensive survey of PD has been presented in this paper. The survey shows that, much of the work has been carried out on model voids. Research has to be extended to obtain a figure of merit for PD of single and multiple discharges and for complex PD patterns observed in practical insulation systems.
