LPD Monitor

The LPD-Monitor (Live Partial Discharge-Monitor) is an Online PD-monitoring system for temporary or permanent monitoring of MV or HV installations up to 66kV. 16 input channels and the low weight make the LPD-Monitor the ideal system for a fast check of MV/HV-networks for critical PD inside cables or their accessories. With quick look and see tests valuable data concerning the condition of the cable can be captured and based on the results of the tests maintenance activities can be scheduled like e.g. offline PD-measurements.

The LPD-Monitor captures the PD data via inductive (HFCT) and/ or capacitive (TEV) sensors. The inductive sensors are of the split-core type and can easily be attached around the screen or core of the cable. The capacitive sensors can be magnetically attached to switchgear or terminations. Since both sensors can be easily attached, outage time is prevented or limited to a minimum.
