Abstract: The reliability of electrical systems depends on the quality and availability of
the power apparatus. Power transformers are important nodes in the electrical power
grid. Common reasons for breakdown are problems in the insulation system. Detecting
partial discharge in the insulation system of a power transformer at an early stage
reduces the risk of total breakdown of power apparatus. One method to detect partial
discharge is the acoustic measurement. With this technique a detection and localization
of partial discharge is possible by placing acoustic sensors on the surface of the
transformer tank. The low level of electrical interferences from outside the measurement
setup constitutes one of the strengths of this method. A further advantage is the ability of
identifying the position of the partial discharge source, which is needed to estimate the
risk and to enable a fast and effective repair.
