Check out our PD Detector in action uncovering flaws in Air Insulated Switchgear! 🔍⚡ Ultrasonic energy caused by surface discharge on cable terminations in AIS can be difficult to detect from outside the switchgear. Sometimes the sound can be detected at the gaps between metal panels, in this case, there happens to be a bolt missing from one of the panels, and by holding the detector up against the hole it can be seen that the internal surface discharge is clearly detected. This is taking advantage of an opportunity, certainly bolts should NEVER be removed in order to allow testing like this. #SwitchgearSolutions #TechInnovation #FaultDetection #IPEC #AIS #PD #PartialDischarge #Ultrasonic
