Abstract

An electrical system and a sensor for on-line monitoring of the state of high-voltage insulation in the electrical system. In this arrangement, the signals associated with partial discharge activity are monitored and transmitted from the sensor to monitoring instrumentation. The sensor is interconnected with the potential stress shield of existing bushings. The capacitance in the bushing between the main conductor and the stress shield conducts partial discharge current which is available for being sensed.
