Fundamentals and applications of partial discharge diagnostics with the MPD series
Summary
Become familiar with the basic principles of partial discharge measurements using the MPD system. Learn to set-up and measure according to IEC 60270 in hands-on sessions on special training equipment. Get a systematic introduction to the interpretation of test results.
Objectives
- Measure partial discharges on high voltage devices with the MPD according to IEC 60270
