Understanding and accurately analysing partial discharge (PD) phase plots is essential for diagnosing and managing PD in high voltage (HV) insulation systems. This guide provides a comprehensive overview of phase plots, their creation, interpretation, and the critical role they play in PD diagnostics. Introduction to Phase Plots Phase plots, or Phase Resolved Partial Discharge (PRPD) … Read more
Plants have feelings too! Did you know certain plants actually emit ultrasonic sounds under stressful situations such as during a drought or when their stems are cut off? These sounds are comparable to a squeal for help. However, will be at a much higher frequency (likely from 20kHz to 100kHz) than human ears can pick up. … Read more
High voltage electrical failures can be detrimental and often result in significant losses: Severe damages to assets and hefty repair costs Injury or trauma to operators working on-site or the general public Loss of revenue The good news is, the build-up leading to these failures often happen over time and can be predicted early. Most … Read more
The Australian energy market is fast-moving towards a carbon zero energy future with far greater use of renewable energy and Consumer Energy Resources (CERs) – solar power, electric vehicle, battery storage, etc. This changes the way we generate and use energy, impacting the power flows through our Low Voltage (LV) networks and puts greater pressure … Read more

System frequency at any electrical installation will tend to slow down and speed up or ‘drift’ away from its intended setting of usually 50/60Hz, all day every day. The aim of achieving a good phase lock is to ‘match’ the 50/60Hz reference of a PD test instrument with the system frequency at the time of recording PD data. … Read more
Following a previous article on PD phase plots, this article explains the importance of achieving a phase lock while capturing phase resolved partial discharge (PRPD) patterns. What is a phase lock? A phase lock is applied while recording PRPD patterns to ensure data quality. It effectively matches the frequency of your test instrument to the typical … Read more
