    completely bridged, breakdown will occur [3, 20].As a result the detection of partial discharges is a well accepted tool for conditionassessment of new and service aged power cables. Many years of good experiences infactory PD testing of new manufactured components, have resulted in the implementation of PD detection also for on-site testing. In the last 15 years depending on the type of component, the network levels different solutions have been developed and implemented forPD testing and diagnosis [8-16].

    In this contribution with regard to the on-site PD detection on power cables practical aspectswill be discussed. In particular, based on practical experiences the fundamental issues of PD

    occurrence in power cables as well as the interpretation aspects will be mentioned. The goalof this contribution is to provide realistic information to utility maintenance engineersapplying PD diagnosis.

    Introduction

    Although some in the electricpower industry may notrealize, all extruded cablesystem owners, have relied onpartial discharge (PD) testtechnology to assure thereliability for decades. Mostexperts would agree that themanufacturing process andproduction PD testing of cablesystem components havebecome so well developed overthe last 40 years that the vastmajority of defects on newlyinstalled systems are not likelyto be due to the manufacturingprocess but rather toworkmanship. Many cableowners see the value in theproduction PD test and are using PD diagnostics in the field to compare the results withknown baseline factory tests. In fact, [29] states that if the cable system can be tested in thefield to show that its partial discharge level is comparable with that obtained in the factory

    tests on the cable and accessories, it is the most convincing evidence that the cable systemis in excellent condition. Although the reason to use PD diagnostics in the field is a natural

    choice for many applications, it is the general experience that the metrics used to assure thefield results can be compared with the factory results are widely misunderstood and oftenoverlooked. To sum up the typical misunderstanding, one might say that not all PD tests arecreated equal. This is especially true when comparing the factory PD test results with typicalon-site (conventional) PD diagnostic test results and (unconventional) PD measurements.

    Much research has been performed over the last 15 years to determine the frequencydependence of PD tests [3]. Research indicates that changing the frequency by more than anorder of magnitude can significantly change the apparent inception voltage of a PD site.This is a concern, as some off-line PD tests use frequencies outside the range of 20Hz up to

    300Hz as recommended in [26, 27] which is used in factory and on-site tests. According toa literature search by the author, decreasing the test frequency by an order of magnitude canchange the apparent inception voltage in a typical range from 5 to 30% when comparedwith the factory PD test [3, 6, 7].

    PD diagnosis of power cables

    Many breakdowns in thepower cables are causedby damages due todigging activities [3]. Butstill, more than half of the breakdowns in thecable network are causedby internal fault in theinsulation systems of thecable network. Visualinspection of the disturbed components may give insight in the different types of breakdownrelated insulation defects. Based on these visual inspections, a list of defects in differentcomponents of cable network can be made, as reflected in [3, 23].For many years, withstand testing (AC and DC) was the only testing method applied in thepower cables network, but nowadays also PD testing has become an accepted method. Asshown in [3, 20, 23, 41], partial discharges (PD) are sensitive and until now they are the bestsymptoms of discharging weak spots (insulation defects, degradation processes) in the HVinsulation.

    It follows hat there is a large diversity on insulation defects which may occur not only in theaccessories of a cable but also in the insulation. Moreover, it is know that PD inception in allthese defects depends on the local electric field enhancement. As a result with regard to

    insulation defects different situations may occur in a cable system (insulation and/oraccessories).

The incident wave isreflected at the detection side of the cable and if not attenuated to noiselevel, it will appear as A . From the time difference between the incidentand the reflected wave, together with the calibrated propagation velocityv , the PD origin location can be calculated: x i =( l- vt)/2

    1. Cable system is PD-free; starting at higher than 1.7Uo electric stresses e.g. > 3Uo PDmay start to ignite in accessories; in that case temporary over-stresses will not produceany PD inception in defects.

    2. Cable system containdischarging defectswith PD inceptionvoltage (PDIV) higherthan 1Uo but lowerthan 1.7Uo; in that casedue to temporary AC or

    It was already shown many years ago [1] that the best way of PD detection as well as therecognition of different discharging defects is related to changes of the applied electric field,

    see figure 1. This interaction between PD inception voltages (PDIV), PD extinction voltage(PDEV), and PD magnitude at different voltage stresses provides more detailed picture aboutthe PD processes in different types of cable insulation defects. Obtaining this information inits turn is important in interpretation of discharging defects:

    1. The level of PDIV as compared to the nominal service stress is of absolute relevance indetermining the degradation ration; e.g. discharging defect with if PDIV = 0.3Uo ismostly more severe that a defect with PDIV =0.9Uo [2, 3, 6].

    2. To declare a power cable PD-free the PDEV has to be at least 1.3Uo [ANSI ICEA].3. Analyzing the increase of PD level and PD intensity in function of the applied voltage e.g.

    between PDIV and 1.7Uo is a good indicator of defect severity [2, 3, 6].

    Summarizing it can beconcluded that due to

    - diversity of dischargingdefects,

    - complexity of cable systems

    for sensitive PD diagnosis

    of power cables the voltagedependence of PDprocesses is important.

    To detect off-line partialdischarges in power cablestwo principal methods canbe considered (figures 2and 3):1. off-line detection

    where the test object is energized from external voltage sources [28] and with regard toPD detection a distinction can be made between standardized so called conventionaldetection method [30, 31] and the not-standardized so called unconventional the radiofrequency (RF) method,

    2. on-line detection where the test object is energized from the network and with regard toPD detection the unconventional RF detection is applicable only.

    In the following paragraphs relevant aspects of sensitive PD detection and the practicalimplications by using these methods for PD detection and localization are discussed.

    Off-line PD detection and localisation of discharging defects in power cablesConventional PD detection (IEC60270 recomm endations)

    The so-called off-line method has been introduced many years ago for factory testing. Sincea few years this method has also been in use for on-site testing of new and service agedpower cables.This method can only be applied on cables systems which are disconnected from thenetwork. The off-line PD detection consists of an external voltage source [28], preferablysinusoidal AC voltage as recommended in the standards for testing power cables of differentvoltage classes:

    a) IEC60502 for testing medium voltage cables [42] b) IEC60840 for testing high voltage cables [26]c) IEC62067 for testing extra high voltage cables [27]

    To detect PD in the power cable standardized circuit different standards can be applied [30,31, 33].

    Performing off-line PD detection using conventional method covers an important step inassessing the sensitivity of the particular circuit. The purpose of this step is to determine thevalue in pC of the smallestPD signal detectable underthe test conditions.

    Following the calibrationprocedure the final PDdetection will be performedin [pC] which is importantstep for comparisons

    between on-site testingand the factory teststandards. Due to fullstandardization of the PDmeasurement process:measuring circuit,calibration procedures,signal processing thismethod is also called conventional.Moreover, applying the conventional PD detection provides PD detection and localisation of

    discharging defects in the whole cable system: cable insulation and cable accessories.

    With regard to PD site localisation similar to factory testing procedure can be applied, seefigure 4. In particular after a discharge process occurred in a cable on location X, e.g. cableaccessories or in the cable insulation, one PD pulse will travel towards the near cable end,the other pulse travels in the opposite direction, and will reflect on the remote open cableend. Finally, this pulse will also arrive at the near end of the cable. When the velocity of thePD pulses is known from standardized calibration, the location of the PD can be determinedby measuring the time lag between the first pulse and its reflection. To determine thevelocity a calibration measurement is used where a calibration pulse is injected at the nearcable end. The time difference between the original pulse and its reflection, together withthe known length L of the cable determines the velocity v. This technique is known as Time

    Domain Reflectometry (TDR). With a devoted software tool for TDR, one can analyse PDmeasurements to identify partial discharges, their reflections and thus their locations alongthe whole power cables. To improve this process, the software tool uses a heuristicalgorithm, correlation and digital band-pass filtering [3, 34-36]. After this identificationprocess, it is possible to create location mappings of partial discharges, see figure 5. Byspecifying a list of joint locations, a convenient graphical overview over a cable is obtained.Applying TDR for PD site localisation the PD detection sensitivity depends on the cablelength and the characteristic HF impedance of the particular cable section [18].

    Unconventional PD detection

    (non-standardized)

    Since a few years, in addition toconventional PD detection, forafter laying tests of new installedcable accessories the radiofrequency (RF) signal processing(using e.g. narrow or wide bandamplifiers, spectrum analyzers)

    have been introduced, see Figure2b. This method is called nonconventional because at thismoment no guidelines orstandards are available to definethe calibration and themeasuring procedures. These RFdevices are able to couple out byinductive or capacitive sensorsthe PD signals from the cable

    accessories and to measure the

    Test Sensitivity Assessment and Calibration

    At present, in the authors experience, pC sensitivity assessment and calibration are perhapsthe most overlooked aspects of PD field tests. In the factory, manufacturers go to greatlengths, including the erection of electromagnetically shielded test rooms, to assure that thetest sensitivity meets the standard requirement. They also perform special calibrationsequences to assure minimal pC magnitude measurement error with their limited bandwidthPD equipment. PD testing in the field requires the use of ultra-high bandwidth detectionsystems [38]. The most up-to-date guide for PD testing in the field with such systems is[30]. According to [30] calibration and sensitivity assessment are critical since poor test

    sensitivity and incorrect pC magnitude assessment commonly lead to faulty test results. Thefollowing text describes a sensitivity assessment and calibration procedure which will assurethat field tests are in compliance with [30] and comparable with factory test standards.

    The practical implications of a proper pC sensitivity assessment and calibration for eachcable test are significant. For example, an inaccurate apparent charge calibration and/oroutdated measurement equipment can lead to errors in the range of one order of magnitude.

    Implications for unconventional PD Tests

    Sensitivity assessment is an especially critical procedure when comparing unconventional PDtest results with factory PD tests. The unconventional PD test has an obviously apparentadvantage in the field in that it can be applied to the accessories directly and theelectromagnetic disturbances and noises from the external voltage sources (off-line) or formthe network (on-line) can be suppressed by choosing for PD detection VHF or UHF frequencyranges. However, a sensitivity assessment in [pC] according to [30, 38] can not be performeddue to differences in detection principles.

    Therefore, since the calibration of unconventional detection can not be performed, thepossibility of a false negative is significant. If, for example, a radio frequency (RF) currenttransformer (CT) is placed in proximity to an energized joint or termination location, it is notpractical to inject a pulse on the conductor of the cable system and determine an accurateattenuation (or gain) factor to correlate the voltage measurements to pC values. Althoughthis example discusses the challenges of unconventional tests, [39] recommends that asensitivity assessment be performed prior to any PD diagnostic test in the field. Otherwise,without a proper sensitivity assessment of unconventional PD detection the standardsrequirements are not followed and the cable owner should be aware of the risk that the testmay not detect all PD activity.

    Practical Experiences

    Referring to systematic research as performed in the field using on-line PD detection [3, 17,23-25] in this chapter the practical aspects of conventional and unconventional PD detectionwill be discussed. In particular the major goal of this discussion is to point out the technicaldifferences and specific aspects of using both PD detection methods.

    Applying conventional PD detection provides sensitive PD localisation in length of powercables up to several kilometres [18].

    Based on the fact that starting from 1520 MHz the attenuation of PD energy frequencycontent increases heavily with the cable length, the sensitivity of RF detection systemsoperating at higher frequencies is limited to a few hundred metres. In figure 7 an example isshown of a very short cable (320m), where based on conventional off-line diagnosis PDactivity has been observed in a cable joint at 65m location. Based on unconventionaldetection as performed on both cable ends the signal reduction of 25% per 100m wasobserved. As a result the applied on-line detection on cable terminations will experience

    problems in detecting PDs on cables longer than 0.5km.

    a) PD site mapping: it follows from this graphthat at the location 1100m PD activity up to7.5nC has been observed in the joint;

    b) and c) PD phase resolved pattern

    This observation is also confirmed by comparing conventional and unconventional detectionas applied to a cable with a typical length of 1950m (PILC insulation), figures 8 and 9. Usingconventional PD detection PD activity has been analysed up to 1.7Uo. At PDIV below 1Uo twoareas of PD activity have been localised.a) The 1 st one PD up to 3.5nC in the cable

    insulation: 0m up to 600m where no PDconcentrations have been observed.

    b) The 2 nd one up to 7.5nC (phase blue) hasbeen observed at the position of 1100m(joint location).

    Analysing the phase resolved patterns asobserved at both terminations the PDpresence has been also confirmed.

    As shown in figure 8 PD signal attenuationhas less influence on PD detectionsensitivity. It follows from the example infigure 8 that applying conventional detection

    the PD in a power cable can be detected atboth cable ends in a similar way.

    The same cable has also been tested usingan unconventional system, see figure 9. Atthe network voltage Uo at both terminationsthe EM disturbances have been estimatedand at the frequency with the highestsignal/noise ration the PD signals have beendetected and processed to phase resolvedpatterns. Taking into account the actuallength of this cable 1950m and the in figure9 shown attenuation effects of 25%/100mno sensitive PD detection in cable insulationand in cable joint can be explained.

    Condition assessment of service aged power cables

    On-site diagnostics are more and more important tools to support the asset management(AM) of power cable networks. In particular, based on actual condition status AM can

    Conclusions

    In this contribution different aspects of on-site PD detection have been evaluated. Based onthis discussion the following can be concluded:

    1) For on-site PD detection three methods are in use:

    a) Off-line (cable section is disconnected and energised by an external voltage source): formany years established conventional detection where PD activity in cable insulation andcable accessories is measured in accordance to standards [30, 31, 33] and the PD

    magnitude can be evaluated in [pC] and the PD sites in the cable insulation and cableaccessories can be localized.

    b) Off-line (cable section is disconnected and energised by an external voltage source):unconventional where PD activity in cable accessories only is measured in V or mV andwhere sensitivity checks are necessary to demonstrate the effectiveness of the method.

    c) On-line (cable section is connected to the network and energised by the line voltage): thePD detection uses unconventional detection methods of PD signals by connecting PDsensors to the cable accessories [21, 22].

    2) Applying the above mentioned PD detection methods, several practical sensitivity aspectsof unconventional methods have to be taken into account. Due to diversity of measuringparameters unconventional method is more complex and does not provide measurements in[pC] but in [ V]. As a result to demonstrate the sensitivity of the system, applying non-conventional PD detection requests sensitivity checks are necessary.
