Abstract

In this study, the simulation of partial discharge pulse waveform have been performed for the typical joints such as EBA and PMJ in the HV underground transmission XLPE cable system in order to improve the understanding of partial discharge pulse waveform and the on-site measurement accuracy of partial discharges. FDTD simulation technique was adopted for the simulation and has been shown to be suitable for partial discharge simulation of power cables in terms of pulse propagation characteristics and waveform formation. The simulation results for the EBA showed that the second not-so-large opposite polarity peak appeared after the first negative polarity peak and the measurement sensitivity was the highest near the bottom of the EBA copper box. In the analysis results for PMJ, the magnitude of the second opposite polarity peak was large enough to compare with the first peak, and the measurement sensitivity at the end of the PMJ copper box was the highest. These simulation results show considerable similarity with the on-site measurement, and it would be very useful for the partial discharge measurement of HV XLPE cable systems.
