Abstract :
A purely electronic partial discharge emulator for use in a location estimation algorithm for online partial discharge detection is proposed as a low-cost approach to real-time condition monitoring, asset management and operation optimization in future smart grid. Some early progress in the development of subsystems (specifically the radiometer antenna and PD emulator) for a proof-of-principle prototype system are described.
