Abstract
Partial discharge (PD) is an important indicator for electrical equipment's insulation property in power industry. Through the measurement of partial discharge we can have a good understanding of the equipment's performance. Ultra High Frequency (UHF) detection techniques are being recently a more and more important method to detect partial discharges. In this paper, a wide bandwidth Archimedean spiral antenna was designed. Its main parameters were analyzed by computer simulation software. A partial discharge test platform was built and three typical partial discharge models were designed. We used the designed Archimedean spiral antenna to detect the three models. The experiment results show that the designed Archimedean spiral antenna has good performance to measure electrical equipment partial discharge signals.

Two planar antennas for detection of partial discharge in gas-insulated switchgear (GIS)

TL;DR: In this paper, a planar complex spiral antenna and a fractal tree log-periodic dipole antenna are used to detect partial discharge in GIS infrastructure, where the RF energy of partial discharge progressively degrades the insulating medium and as a result electrical breakdown can occur.
