Condition monitoring of insulation system of an isolation transformer with partial discharge test

Abstract

Electrical machines have become a vital asset in any industry or power station or house hold.Periodic or continuous c ondition
monitoring has also become a crucial requirement in anticipating any fault for preventive maintenance which may earn the goal of efficient
functioning of the same.In this paper a case study based on condition monitoring of insulation system of an isolation transformer using
partial discharge test which is one of the important techniques employed in assessing the electrical discharge activity and ultimately the
health of the insulation system of the same
