Abstract :
This paper presents the monitoring architecture and experience gained in a pilot distribution grid designed for continuous control of insulation condition of the grid by means of PD measurements. Powerful data processing tools are used for the discrimination of PD pulses from background noise, for locating different PD sources, for clustering PD sources and for identification of the defect associated to each PD source.
