Abstract :
This paper deals with partial discharge measurements in twisted pair fed by a PWM inverter. Measurements are carried out using antenna sensors. Both D-Dot sensor and self-made sensors are compared when it comes to detect partial discharge in a PWM environment. High-pass filter performance is tested as well with these sensors. Finally, a blind source separation method is presented.
