Abstract
A method for triggering a partial discharge acquisition from an energy generating device is described. The method includes generating a power source sensed signal by sensing electromagnetic energy output from the energy generating device, producing an present flux density trace from the power source sensed signal, and determining a lack of variation in timing from at least one of the present flux density trace and a comparison between the present flux density trace and at least one prior flux density trace.
