Partial Discharge Testing for Transformers

Wednesday, March 9, 2011

 

Peter Kantardziski

Dynamic Ratings, Inc.

About the Topic

There is a desire within the electric utilities industry to add additional monitoring capabilities to their large power assets. This predominately is on large power transformers. Many utilities are currently monitoring oil and winding temperatures, dissolved gas, cooling systems and bushings. The next technology to implement is for partial discharges. Several successful installations of partial discharge monitoring equipment have been made during 2009 and 2010 on large power transformers up to and including 500 kV. This presentation will review sensors used, sensor installation, noise cancellation methodologies and as well as results from the various installations.

About the Speaker

Peter Kantardziski obtained his engineering degree at the University of Belgrade, Yugoslavia. He has 39 years of experience in conceptual design, sales, application, consulting and troubleshooting of various industrial electrical systems. In particular, he has spent 22 years in on-line partial discharge monitoring on all types of rotating electrical machines, as well as analysis and interpretation of test results. As part of FES International, Peter led the introduction and dissemination of the first commercial on-line partial discharge monitoring systems using portable instruments (1988). He also initiated and helped develop several partial discharge technologies, including Currently, Peter is associated with Dynamic Ratings, offering a unique range of on-line partial discharge monitoring systems for all types of electrical machines and apparatus (both static and rotating).
