Practical Medium and High voltage Testing of Electrical Equipment for Enginee...Living Online
Testing is an essential activity in any engineer’s career. Whatever your role in industry (electrical designer, purchase engineer, manufacturer, installation contractor or maintenance engineer) a solid knowledge of tests to be carried out on a given piece of electrical equipment and interpretation of results obtained is a necessity. This workshop is designed to familiarise you with various aspects of testing general electrical equipment and high voltage testing in particular.
Examples will be cited from various international standards regarding the procedure for conducting of tests and interpreting the test results. The need for keeping proper records of tests conducted both in the initial stages and later during routine maintenance will be discussed. Some of the tests are too complex to be performed on a routine basis or may require specialised equipment which may not be normally available to user industries or even manufacturers. This is where the services of an independent and accredited test lab is useful. The role of such labs will be briefly discussed.

Toward an Understanding of the Processing Delay of Peer-to-Peer Relay NodesAcademia Sinica
Peer-to-peer relaying is commonly used in realtime applications to cope with NAT and firewall restrictions and provide better quality network paths. As relaying is not natively supported by the Internet, it is usually implemented at the application layer. Also, in a modern operating system, the processor is shared, so the receive-process-forward process for each relay packet may take a considerable amount of time if the host is busy handling some other tasks. Thus, if we happen to select a loaded relay node, the relaying may introduce significant delays to the packet transmission time and even degrade the application performance.
In this work, based on an extensive set of Internet traces, we pursue an understanding of the processing delays incurred at relay nodes and their impact on the application performance. Our contribution is three-fold: 1) we propose a methodology for measuring the processing delays at any relay node on the Internet; 2) we characterize the workload patterns of a variety of Internet relay nodes; and 3) we show that, serious VoIP quality degradation may occur due to relay processing, thus we have to monitor the processing delays of a relay node continuously to prevent the application performance from being degraded.

Tilt Measurement:
Tilt measurement is fast becoming a fundamental analysis tool in many fields including automotive, industrial, and healthcare. Navigation, vehicle dynamic control, building sway indication and motion detection systems all rely on this simple, cheap, and precise way of angle monitoring. MEMs accelerometers are ideally suited to inclination measurement than other methodologies. This session will address the challenges encountered when designing a dual-axis tilt sensor using a MEMs accelerometer including measurement resolution, signal conditioning, single- vs.
dual-axis, angle computation, and calibration.
Impedance Measurement: The measurement of complex impedance is widely used across industrial, commercial, automotive, healthcare, and consumer markets, and can include applications such as proximity sensing, inductive transducers, metallurgy and corrosion detection, loudspeaker impedance, biomedical, virus detection, blood coagulation factor, and network impedance analysis. This session will cover the concepts, approaches, and challenges of performing complex impedance measurements, and will present a system-level solution for impedance conversion.
Weigh Scale Measurement: Most common industrial weigh scale applications use a bridge-type load-cell sensor, with a voltage output that is directly proportional to the load weight placed on it. This session examines the basic parameters of a bridge-type load-cell sensor, such as the number of varying elements, impedance, excitation, sensitivity (mV/V), errors, and drift. It will also discuss the various components of the signal conditioning chain and present solutions with high dynamic range.
Small, widely available and dirt-cheap ultrasonic sensors enable us to design both simple and lavish measuring devices for all kinds of ranging. Take one of these modules, add a display, a couple of press-buttons and a micro-controller loaded with software, and you now have all the ingredients for a circuit of this kind.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

2. BASICS
“Partial discharges” are fast flows of electrons (discharge) due to a local concentration of
the electric field which occurs across two insulated bodies at different potential, that does
not breakdown the whole insulation.
They normally occurs within gases (air or other).
PD’s normally occur within electric machines and other apparatus due to the technology
utilized in the insulation systems (termosetting materials).
There are different kinds of discharges, some are harmful some are not.
It is not true that the most dangerous PD phenomena exhibits the larger amplitude
PD quantities and PD intensity must be associated with the defect typology to properly
assess harmfullness
Different insulation systems exhibits different characteristics as to PD patterns and PD
levels, therefore experience is the Key-factor
PPT2013.01.01.20EN

3. BASICS
PDs are slow degrading phenomena, therefore they can be used for early detection
of potential cause failure, and normally they allow for proper planning of corrective
actions.
PD are at the same time both a symptom of a defect
and a new degradation process that can lead to the final breakdown.
PDs measurement allow for local defect identification and monitoring, improving
CBM efficacy .

International Standards on PDs measurements:
IEC 60270 – High-voltage test techniques – Partial discarge measurements
IEC 60034-27 – Rotating electrical machines – Partial discharge off-line
measurements on the stator winding insulation of rotating machinery
STANDARDS do not give acceptance criteria for new machines or machine in service
At the moment, there are not end-of-life criteria based on PD
Diagnostic is based on trending and experience

10. PD Detection And Measurement
Signals coming from different PD sources and/or locations present differents waveshapes.
The whole shape of signals is digitally detected at the fastest sampling rate, to
avoid the frequency aliasing.
Pulse signals are synthesized considering both their amplitude and phase of
occurrence and reported on a standardized cycle of the applied voltage to obtain a 3D
plot (or 2D plot).
Pulse signals are recorded in a number high enough to perform statistical analysis.
Different PD sources are separated through TF mapping.
Noise by different sources (power electronics switches, broadcast signals, arcing,
AC/DC rectifiers, random noise, PD cross-talk, etc.) is rejected by identification
throught TF mapping.
PD sources are identified by comparison

Different defects can affect differently the insulation system reliability: it is not true that
the most dangerous PD phenomenon exhibits the larger amplitude
PD quantities relevant to PD intensity must be associated with the defect typology
At the moment, there are not end-of-life criteria based on PD
A complete collection of 3D PD plots and the relevant defect typologies is essential for
reliable diagnostics
Design and manufacturing greatly affect PD patterns and levels: OEM experience is
