Partial discharge testing of random wound stators during short risetime voltage surges
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Modern inverter fed motors often produce short risetime, high magnitude voltage surges that may lead to partial discharge in the random wound stator windings. Detection of PD during such voltage surges can not be done with the usual PD detectors described by ASTM D1868. Instead a detector that can separate PD pulse currents from a short risetime voltage surge is required. This paper describes a PD detector that can measure PD pulses when the applied voltage is a voltage surge with a risetime as short as 100 ns. PD data has been collected from dozens of stators, many of which had known insulation problems. In most cases the PDIV easily met the requirements of a new IEC technical specification that sets the partial discharge inception voltages for random wound stators. Since most of these stators had obvious insulation system deficiencies, it seems that the PDIV levels set by IEC TS 60034-18-41 may be too low.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
