Rugged design, IP65 rated, overvoltage protected, PD measurement at Cables (and their accessories), Switchgears, Rotating Machines and Power Transformers Hsens-T is a Transient Earth Voltage Sensor that can be used to detect external partial discharges inside metal clad switchgear or power cables termination box of rotating machines and power transformers. An application of HFCT along with TEV can help in PD diagnostic and confirmation of internal versus external PD.
TEV sensor has strong magnets that help it to attach to the walls of metal clad switchgear. TEV forms a capacitive coupling with grounded metal switchgear to detect transients of external PD happening inside metal clad switchgear at termination.
