age steps can be used to collect indica-
tors of partial discharges (PD) or to de-
tect moist joints, for example.
• The mean value difference (DTD) in the
various voltage
steps is helpful to de-
tect water trees, partial discharges and
vaporisation effects (e.g. at termina-
tions).
• Furthermore, inadequate insulation of
paper pulp insulated cables due to wa-
ter penetration can be detected with the
dissipation factor measurement.
The significance of the tan delta measure-
ment depends on
the measurement accu-
racy and resolution. For example, we need
a measurement accuracy of about 1*10E
-4
to be able to detect an increase in the dis-
sipation factor during measurement on a
plastic-insulated cable (see Fig. 1).

delivers information on a “hidden” fault. A subse-
quent PD test indicates a defective cable termination.
