Abstract
A high voltage conductor for transmitting high voltage is provided. The high voltage conductor includes a power wire, a fault detection unit, and a monitoring unit. The power wire is configured for transmission of electrical energy. The fault detection unit is configured for detecting an electromagnetic field emanated by the power wire, and the monitoring unit is configured for detection of degradation in an isolation of the high voltage conductor. The monitoring unit is connected to the fault detection unit and is configured to receive an electrical signal induced in the fault detection unit, which electrical signal is induced as a result of a degradation of the isolation of the high voltage conductor. Thus, degradation of the isolation of the high voltage conductor may be recognized at an early stage.
