Six sensors have been packed into a so-called third generation partial discharge (PD) system.

Partial discharge system has six sensorsUltraTEV Locator is a portable, multi-function system for investigating and recording PD activity. Developer EA Technology says it is designed to help technicians establish the detailed condition of live assets, but also then optimise maintenance and prevent faults developing into failures.

The equipment uses ultrasonic and transient earth voltage (TEV) sensors to locate and measure PD activity of assets – both on the surface and internally.
