158 IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON POWER DELIVERY, VOL. 20, NO. 1, JANUARY 2005 Sensitive Online PD-Measurements of Onsite Oil/Paper-Insulated Devices by Means of Optimized Acoustic Emission Techniques (AET) Ekard Grossmann and Kurt Feser, Fellow, IEEE Abstract— Recently developed monitoring-systems show the need as also the possibilities for online- and offline-onsite-diag- nostics. The limit in sensitivity for electrical pd-measurements according to IEC 60270 which is reached using filters for sinu- soidal disturbances and compensation for corona impulses is still not satisfactory. The acoustic partial discharge measurement (pd-measurement) is also a well known and reliable method often used by transformer manufacturers in testing. In laboratory setups a gain in sensitivity of the acoustic in comparison to the electrical pd measurements could be established. This is reached by adapting the sensors to the propagation path, a modern but moderately priced acquisition hardware and the introduction of new signal processing algorithms.
