Abstract
A partial discharge detection system for detecting partial discharge events in an electrical component includes a transducer configured to receive a signal from the electrical component generated due to an occurrence of a partial discharge and responsively provide a transducer output. A signal processing chain includes a filter coupled to the transducer which filters the transducer output signal and responsively generating a filtered output. A digital signal processor performs a Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) on the filtered output and generates coefficients which correspond to different modulation frequencies of the filtered, output. A controller identifies an occurrence of a partial discharge in the electrical component based upon the plurality of coefficients.
