Insulation failure in High Voltage (HV) cables is evaluated using a variety of monitoring techniques. Previous silicon technologies were outperformed by wide-bandgap semiconductor power devices with faster switching speeds. Their precise current management or current protection measures must be upgraded. As a result, their precise current control or protection measures have become more sophisticated. The traditional Rogowski Coil (RC) with the magnetic core, on the other hand, has low measurement accuracy, a short measuring range, and is difficult to fabricate. This paper presents and discusses the development of a Rogowski Coil using a detachable Printed Circuit Board (PCB) as a current sensor for Partial Discharge (PD) measurement. Furthermore, the development of this innovative current sensor concentrated on the detachable PCB Rogowski Coil's capability to measure as a high-voltage (HV) current sensor and its sensitivity in fault diagnosis, over-voltage current sensing, and high-impulse current sensing on HV cables. The experimental design, techniques, and measurement parameters used in models were discussed. Finally, a brief analysis of the detachable PCB RC current sensor such as sensitivity, maximum voltage and current detection is presented. This paper can also be used as a guideline for other researchers to develop an advanced RC current sensor using PCB as a HV current sensor in the future. The measurement results of the detachable PCB RC current sensor such as the sensitivity and current detection signal can also be used as a guideline by another researcher. As a result, the goal of this project is to measure PD on HV cables using an RC current sensor by utilising PCB technology.
