The PD Simulator is designed to train users in a safe environment how to detect, locate, measure, and interpret partial discharge (PD) activity

The PD Simulator is designed to train users in a safe environment how to detect, locate, measure, and interpret partial discharge (PD) activity. The tool works by generating realistic simulations of PD emissions commonly found in MV and HV assets, including five levels of transient earth voltage (TEV) signal and five levels of ultrasonic sound. The ultrasonic mode also generates four types of noise that are characteristic of specific types of PD activity. Battery-powered, the product is fully portable and can transfer simulated PD signals to any type of MV or HV assets via a magnetic contact or clip.
