A partial discharge detection apparatus detects a plurality of discharge events, finds a time interval between the plurality of discharge events, and determines, where the discharge events occur at a time interval shorter than a threshold time, that a partial discharge has occurred within a metal enclosure, or determines, where the discharge events occur only at a time interval longer than the threshold time, that a discharge has occurred outside the metal enclosure. The partial discharge detection apparatus can thus readily distinguish between a partial discharge that occurs within the metal enclosure of a gas-insulated switchgear and a discharge that occurs outside the metal enclosure.

A gas-insulated electrical device includes a covering film covering an inner surface of a ground tank filled with an insulation gas. The covering film is formed of an insulation dielectric covering film that becomes more positively charged than metals in a triboelectric series, and becomes positively charged upon contact with metal foreign matter. At the same time, the metal foreign matter becomes negatively charged upon contact with the covering film. In a case where the high-voltage conductor is charged to a negative polarity, a Coulomb's force acts on the metal foreign matter in contact with the covering film in a direction away from the high-voltage conductor. The metal foreign matter in the ground tank is thus suppressed from floating.

If an electric field applied to the nonlinear resistive part is higher than an electric field value in a vicinity of a contact point between the nonlinear resistive part and a metallic foreign substance mixed in the grounded tank during an operation, a resistivity of the nonlinear resistive part at the center conductor side is lower than a resistivity at which a discharge delay time is equal to an electric field relaxation time constant.
