Abstract

Partial discharge (PD) measurements have been carried out over the years to assess insulation systems in power apparatus for their integrity and design deficiencies. Digital PD recording, processing and its presentation as 3-d patterns are recent trends in both industry and testing laboratories. Interpretation of these patterns can lead to evaluation of the cause of PD. A need arises to look for methods in the domain of pattern recognition for automating this process. In this context, this paper presents results to demonstrate the possibility of using pattern recognition capabilities offered by a multilayer neural network to recognize 3-d PD patterns
