Simulation Analysis on Partial Discharge Signals Produced by Multiple Insulation Defects in GIS

In this paper, the simulation analysis on partial discharge (PD) signals produced by multiple insulation defects in gas insulated substation (GIS) has been researched by the simulation software of electromagnetic field (XFDTD). The theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the single partial discharge signal is the linear convolution of the partial discharge current signal and its corresponding impact response in GIS. The mixed partial discharge signals are the linear mixtures of every partial discharge signal
