Abstract
The phenomenon of impulsive noise is generated by Partial discharge (PD) sources in high-voltage substations. A PD generates a current impulse, acoustic noise, visible and ultraviolet (UV) light and electromagnetic radiation , and accordingly its presence can be detected via several measurement methods.
