Kısmi deşarj, kusur bölgesindeki yerel elektrik alanının ortamın dielektrik gücünü aşması durumunda ortaya çıkar. (sağlam, sıvı, veya gaz), bir mikro deşarj yolu oluşturmak. Bu olaylar çevredeki yapıya yüksek frekanslı akım ve elektromanyetik enerji enjekte eder.. Tespit yöntemleri farklı fiziksel etkilerden yararlanır:

3.1 Elektriksel ve Elektromanyetik Etkiler

• UHF emisyonu: PD geniş bant elektromanyetik enerji yayar. 300 MHz–3 GHz aralığı; CBS'ye uygun, transformatörler, and metal-clad switchgear.
• TEV effect: Transient earth voltage manifests on metal enclosures as fast surface currents; widely used in MV switchgear.
• RF current pulses: Conducted impulses detectable with high-frequency current transformers (HFCT'ler) on grounding paths and cable screens.

3.2 Acoustic and Ultrasonic Effects

3.3 Optical Effects

• Light emission: Discharge channels emit in UV/visible spectrum; optical sensors and cameras (with filters) capture corona and surface activity, especially in open-air components.

3.4 Phase-Resolved PD (PRPD)

By aligning PD pulses with the power frequency phase, detectors form two-dimensional maps (magnitude vs. faz) or three-dimensional histograms (büyüklük, faz, pulse count). Defect classes—internal voids, yüzey takibi, corona—produce characteristic patterns, aiding classification and severity ranking.
