Abstract:
A partial discharge sensing system and method for conducting testing inside an enclosure includes a partial discharge sensor, an access port, and a signal cable. The partial discharge sensor is permanently installed at a test location inside the enclosure. The access port is configured so that an analyzer can be connected to the access port from an exterior of the enclosure. The signal cable operably connects the partial discharge sensor and the access port to enable an analyzer connected to the access port from outside the enclosure to interface with the partial discharge sensor for generating test data.
