Abstract: Partial discharge (PD) measurement is widely accepted as a quality control test to study and detect the incipient insulation faults in power system equipments. This paper describes the study of partial discharge propagation behavior in a 6kV / 60kVA two limb series limb type winding by comparing between the PD location estimated by simulated equivalent circuit and experimental estimation by terminal current measurement method. The winding considered has 6 accessible taps hence the simulation is also done in 12 parts to simulate injection of PD pulses at various location to cross check with actual results. The design parameters are used to derive the high frequency equivalent circuit by simulating in software packages such as ANSOFT & MAGNET and also analytical calculation methods. The high frequency equivalent circuit of the winding consists of series inductance (L), capacitance (Cs), and ground capacitance (Cg) of the winding [1]. The equivalent circuit is simul!
ated in PSPICE and standard PD signal is injected at various locations (6 locations). The response signals at start and end terminals of circuit are captured and analyzed in the frequency domain & the location is estimated by the formula using the series resonance frequency methodology [2]. Experiments are conducted by injecting PD pulses into the winding at various tap locations using pulse generator, the traveled signals at the line and neutral end terminals are captured using High frequency current transformer (HFCT). The frequency spectra of the measured signals at line and neutral end for various tap locations along the winding height are analyzed and similarly the PD location is estimated, compared and validated with the location estimated by the simulated transformer winding equivalent circuit model in PSPICE. The effect of PD location in transformer winding on the propagation of partial discharge pulses and its effect on the frequency response and the accuracy of th!
e PD location estimation are illustrated.
