Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) – An Introduction

A Gas Insulated Substation (GIS) is sometimes also referred to as Gas Insulated Switchgear or Gas Insulated System. Why GIS is the Future of High Voltage Power Systems There are several reasons for preferring a Gas-Insulated System (GIS) over an Air-Insulated System (AIS). Constructional Details of GIS A GIS consists of several key modules, each … Read more

Online Partial Discharge Measurement of GIS

What is a partial discharge in an insulation system? A partial discharge (PD) in an insulator system is a localized electrical discharge that occurs when the electric field within the insulation exceeds its dielectric strength in specific areas, without completely bridging the insulating material between conductors. When high voltage is applied to an insulation system, … Read more
