Partialentladungsüberwachung
Partialentladu is a term that can refer to several distinct concepts, primarily within the realms of physics and engineering, though its exact usage can vary by context. In electrical engineering, "partialentladu" can describe a partial discharge, which is a localized electrical breakdown of an insulating material under the influence of a high electric field. These discharges do not completely bridge the gap between conductors, meaning they are transient and do not result in a full arc flashover or short circuit. Partial discharges are often a sign of insulation degradation and can lead to eventual equipment failure if left unaddressed. They are a significant concern in high-voltage equipment like transformers, switchgear, and cables.
In a broader physical sense, "partialentladu" might also be used to describe a partial eruption or discharge
