PD Applications - MV, HV, EHV Cables & Cable Accessories
Factory PD testing on power cables
All cables produced in a cable factory need to be tested according to the relevant quality assurance standards. During high voltage tests, a simultaneous partial discharge (PD) measurement is recommended and applicable. Depending on the highest voltage levels under test, a suitable coupling capacitor can be used to pick up the PD signal from the cable termination.
