Abstract
In power transformer, Partial Discharge (PD) can cause a major equipment risk and lead to further accidents. One of the PD detection techniques is Ultra-High Frequency (UHF) antenna. UHF antenna have a major advantage which is it immune to external interference. However, the choice of feeding technique used to connect the antenna to the transmission line can limit the performance of UHF antenna. This paper was conducted by comparing microstrip line feed and coaxial feed for Ultra-High Frequency (UHF) PD detection. The antenna is aimed to operate in the PD frequency range (300-3000 MHz) and there is no specific frequency band that PD radiate in a measurement. The frequency of UHF PD measurements in power transformers varies based on the individual case and is impacted by several factors, including the PD source and locations of PD in the transformer. In this work, 4 th order Hilbert fractal antenna are selected as patch antenna for UHF PD detection. The proposed design for the antenna based on the appropriate size for internal installation in the power transformer. All these results showed that either microstrip line feed or coaxial feed technique are able to capture the PD in the range of UHF for the power transformer. However, the coaxial feed antenna is preferable as it shows that the fabricated measurement is consistent with the simulation and had a higher number of resonant frequencies.
