Training Course Overview
Partial discharge (PD) serves as a crucial signal of insulation deterioration in electrical equipment like transformers, switchgear, and cables. Timely detection and accurate pinpointing of PD faults are essential for avoiding major failures, enhancing equipment efficiency, and prolonging the life of electrical assets.
This PD Partial Discharge Localization and Fault Diagnosis training course provides a deep dive into the principles and methods used to detect and address PD faults. It will equip professionals with the skills required to identify and resolve partial discharge issues effectively. Participants will gain hands-on experience with various PD detection techniques, tools, and real-world applications through exercises, case studies, and diagnostic simulations.
