Making History in Partial Discharge Testing
Discover how MPD technology has evolved to make PD testing easier, safer, and highly reliable.
In this episode, OMICRON partial discharge (PD) measurement and analysis expert Caspar Steineke offers a first-hand account of the last 20 years of OMICRON MPD technology and how it has revolutionized PD testing worldwide.
Caspar describes how MPD technology began 20 years ago in response to industry requirements for functionality that had not existed before, such as synchronous, multi-channel and highly stable, repeatable PD measurements with data recording for reliable post analysis.
Caspar highlights how engaging with users – listening carefully to their needs and application requirements – played an essential role in MPD development and has resulted in many groundbreaking features that make PD measurement and analysis easier and more reliable for a diverse range of PD testing applications.
Lastly, Caspar describes the future of PD testing and how MPD technology will continue to evolve to meet user needs.
Caspar has been a guest before on Energy Talks, such as Episode 72 about "The Essentials of Partial Discharge Testing on Electrical Equipment".
