    This study presents a comprehensive investigation into the rise time characteristics of partial discharges (PD) in cable insulation through experimental measurements. Partial discharges are a critical phenomenon in high-voltage systems, serving as an early indicator of insulation degradation. Understanding the rise time of partial discharges is essential for assessing the severity of insulation defects and ensuring the reliability of power cable systems. The experimental setup involved controlled conditions to induce partial discharges in cable samples, allowing for precise measurement and analysis of the rise time. The study explores the correlation between rise time and different factors such as cable design, insulation material, and defect type. Results indicate that the rise time of partial discharges exhibits distinct patterns based on these factors, providing valuable insights into the nature of insulation defects. The findings contribute to the development of effective diagnostic tools for condition monitoring in power cable systems, ultimately enhancing the reliability and safety of electrical infrastructure.

    The main purpose of this paper is to analyze the impact of different positions of different DG penetrations on bus voltage profiles and channel power losses. The main classification can be done by putting DG on the most critical bus, the closest bus to the most critical but critical bus too, the closest bus to the feeder but critical too, and the furthest from the feeder but critical too. Installing a distributed generation in a distribution network can significantly affect the power system. The effect depends on DG allocation of the distribution network. Implementation of this approach has been made with the IEEE 34 bus standard at different points. DG placement site selection method based on buses decreased voltage over the limit permitted. Simulation results from a case study on the IEEE 34 bus standard system show that the voltage profile on each bus and the loss of system power will be different when compared to the DG installation at different points.

    Pollution flashover is one of the primary reasons cause to power system failure in Malaysia. The presence of accumulation on the porcelain insulator surface reduces the electrical performance and also causes the failure of insulation in transmission and distribution lines. This research presents a study on the effect of Room Temperature Vulcanize (RTV) coating on the performances of a string porcelain insulator and their impact on environmental contamination. An attempt has been made to simulate the electric field distribution of 33 kV insulators using the finite element method (FEM). From the simulation results, the maximum electric field distribution is obtained at the pin insulator of a clean insulator, while the cap insulator indicated the minimum electric field. With the existence of the contamination layer, the electric field distribution of the porcelain surface results in a reduction trend.

    Cable termination is one of the important components in the electrical power system. A failure of it can cause a long interruption, costly repair and loss of revenue. An existing oil filled cable termination such as rubber tube and porcelain type of cable termination require an observation and preventive maintenance in order to prevent an enormous electrical system failure in future. One of the defects ot this type of oil filled cable termination is lack of insulation oil inside it. The worst case if it becomes totally empty and at the same time there is no approach taht can help detect it. This paper presents the work carried out to find any possible method that can be used to detect a drying out of oil impregnated paper tape cable terminations. Futhermore, the diagnosis has to be used without destroying the terminations. Two diagnosis methods, infrared (IR) thermography and X-ray imaging are reviewed and the diagnosis result is presented. By comparison of two diagnosis method in this work, the X-ray imaging method is the best approach to observe and detect a drying out of paper tape oil impregnated cable terminations.

    This paper presents results from a new donor-acceptor material using easily available and renewable organic material. The new material was developed and tested using an idea of a new electron transfer mechanism using combined chlorophyll and ferrocene as the bulk-hetero junction active layer. This research aims to produce a binding between the chlorophyll molecule and the protein substitute using ferrocene so that the theory of electron transfer can be tested. The main objective of the research is to produce electricity from the new donor-acceptor material. It is observed that open-circuit voltage (Voc), short circuit current (Isc), fill factor (FF) and the efficiency (η) of the device were 0.1665V, 0.005A, 0.645 and 0.13%, respectively.

    This paper focused on analyzing multi-cylindrical slots performance combining with parasitic suppression patch for partial discharge detection. Both proposed slots antenna and conventional monopole are simulated using CST Microwave Studio software before being fabricated and tested with real partial discharge signal. Performance comparison will be focused on scattering parameter, radiation pattern and surface current distribution. Both antennas are subjected to a partial discharge signal from lab scaled power transformer for the field test. Based on the result, the proposed performed better in both simulation and field testing with the dual-frequency operation, with better gain improvement by 14%. For the field test, the proposed antenna generated better detection result with reduced noises by 50%.

    This study explores the green synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) using cellar spider extracts as a sustainable alternative to traditional methods involving hazardous chemicals and radiation. The spider extracts effectively reduced zinc acetate dihydrate, yielding white precipitates indicative of ZnO NPs. Characterization through SEM revealed diverse morphologies, including spherical, rod-like, hexagonal, and uneven particles forming platelet-like aggregates. Further analyses, such as HPM, 3D nanoprofiler, and EDS, provided insights into size, shape, morphology, surface chemistry, thermal stability, and optical characteristics, quantifying the intended properties of the synthesized ZnO NPs. Antibacterial assays against E. coli and B. subtilis demonstrated significant antibacterial activity, affirming the nanoparticles' potential for antimicrobial applications. This green synthesis approach, validated through comprehensive characterization and quantitative measurements, offers a promising and environmentally friendly route for producing functional ZnO NPs.

    Nanotechnology that involves the biological synthesis of nanoparticles is a relatively recent subject with advantages over chemical and physical synthesis procedures with respect to the economics and the environment. This study is the first to use the brown sea algae Sargassum muticum (S. muticum) as a reducing agent to generate nanostructured silver particles (AgNP). Using FTIR, XRD, and UV–vis spectroscopy, the structure, shape, and optical features of the synthesized nanoparticles have been exhaustively characterized. Using a UV–visible spectrophotometer, a clear absorption peak at 390 nm demonstrated the synthesis of AgNP. By crystallizing chemicals, nanoparticles were formed. The XRD pattern validated the results.

    Partial discharge (PD) is a phenomenon that causes failures in high voltage (HV) components due to the degradation of insulation. Before an interruption or fault occurs, early detection of insulation degradation is essential. However, the long-term effect of PD will lead to the failure of the power system. This is important to control and diagnose the health of the HV power equipment such as power transformer. The main issue when measuring PD is the accuracy and sensitivity of the PD detection technique. This paper consists of two parts which are classification of the PD detection technique and hybrid detection technique. In this paper, an overview of the detection technique for power transformer including optical detection, chemical detection, electrical detection, electromagnetic detection, acoustic emission detection and hybrid detection technique is presented. The hybrid detection technique is based on combining two or more stand-alone detection technique. Based on this review, the hybrid detection technique showed that the advantages of performance in terms of sensitivity and accuracy for detecting the PD in power transformer.

    Partial Discharge (PD) can occur on any high-voltage equipment. This study is particularly concerned with the PD that occurs on underground cables. Researchers frequently struggle to isolate interference noise from the PD signal when doing PD measurements. Therefore, to reduce the interference noise during PD measurements, Sallen-Key High Pass Filter (HPF) with a 500 kHz, or a little bit higher cut-off frequency are designed. This filter is designed with a designated cut-off frequency value because the frequency range of the PD signal is between 1 MHz to 1 GHz. Based on the results of experimental testing for actual filters, the designed filter is a HPF with a cut-off frequency of 500 kHz. When the generator function's input frequency values are set between 500 kHz and 2.4 MHz, the signal will pass the filter and provide output values for both frequencies and amplitude. However, at frequencies lower than 500 kHz, the signal is beginning to be filtered and the output signal's amplitude is getting close to zero. Based on the PD testing results, there is interference on the PD signal shown on the oscilloscope when a 1kV supply is applied to an underground cable without using a filter. But, when the proposed filter is used in PD testing, the ripple voltage is reduced from 123 mV to 67 mV. This proves that when the designed HPF is used in PD testing, it can reduce interference noise on the PD signal.
