The Detection of Transient Earth Voltage in Electrical Gear

Partial discharge (PD) is a leading cause of electrical insulation failure, making early detection essential for preventing catastrophic failures. Transient Earth Voltage (TEV) testing offers a fast, non-invasive method to identify PD activity in switchgear, transformers, and transmission lines.

This whitepaper explores how TEV and acoustic emission (AE) detection can pinpoint insulation defects, tracking, arcing, and corona before they escalate. Learn how advanced PD monitoring tools help inspectors analyze TEV signals, detect faults in real time, and trend asset health over time.

With improved testing techniques and Phase Resolved Partial Discharge (PRPD) analysis, companies can enhance safety, extend equipment lifespan, and prevent costly outages.

  • TEV Testing Enables Early Detection – Identifies partial discharge before insulation failure occurs.
  • Non-Invasive, Real-Time Monitoring – Detects PD without de-energizing equipment.
  • Advanced Diagnostics Improve Accuracy – PRPD and acoustic emission analysis enhance fault identification.
  • Proactive Maintenance Saves Costs – Prevents failures, reduces downtime, and extends asset life.
