Elevate switchgear performance with Megger's partial discharge testing. Our solutions ensure insulation integrity, detect degradation early, and reduce unplanned downtime across GIS/GIL systems, ensuring reliability and safety in your power grids.
Megger’s PD testing for GIS and GIL identifies insulation degradation at the earliest stage, helping prevent hazardous failures. With advanced detection, UHF sensor integration, and continuous monitoring, operators can ensure safer, more stable switchgear operation.
Megger’s solutions detect early insulation issues, verify SF₆ integrity, and support routine maintenance, reducing unplanned downtime. Scalable portable and permanent systems ensure repeatable diagnostics and long-term reliability for modern and ageing switchgear.
Continuous and parallel PD monitoring, transparent data recording, and extensive historical analysis provide deep insights into insulation condition. These diagnostics enable proactive maintenance planning and help prevent future grid disruptions.
PD testing and monitoring identifies early signs of insulation failure in switchgear systems like GIS and GIL. It detects electrical discharges caused by insulation degradation, enabling proactive maintenance and preventing equipment-related downtime or failures.
GIS and GIL are often equipped with embedded UHF sensors that can pick up the irradiated PD signal: Megger’s solutions can be directly connected to such outputs and analyse the type of insulation defect that is generating partial discharges. For older assets that are not equipped with such sensors, Megger can also provide easy and quick retrofitting options.
Megger's solutions feature constant and continuous monitoring on all the connected sensors, unparalleled historical analysis for in-depth analysis, dedicated modes for HV tests and sensitivity verification. The centralised architecture of the permanent monitoring system ensures cost-effectiveness and highly reduced maintenance. The high number of sensors connectable to the portable units allow extensive and easy temporary monitoring on even the largest GIS.
Yes, PD testing is crucial for ageing GIS and GIL systems that may exceed their design lifespans. Megger's solutions offer online monitoring and diagnostics to extend operational reliability and prevent unexpected failures.
