Abstract

Accurately detecting defect-induced photon emissions enables early defect detection and characterization. To address this, a defect evolution state recognition model based on phase-resolved photon counting and dimensionality reduction calculations is proposed under alternating current (AC) excitation. Initially, photon information from protruding metal defects simulated using needle–plane electrodes during partial discharge (PD) evolution is analyzed in SF 6 . Subsequently, phase-resolved photon counting (PRPC) techniques and statistical analysis are employed to extract feature parameters for quantitative characterization of defect-induced photon responses. Finally, a t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) dimensionality reduction analysis is utilized to establish criteria for categorizing defect evolution states. The findings reveal that metal-particle-triggered optical PRPC maintains the obvious polarity effect, and the entire evolution of the discharge can be divided into three processes. These research findings are expected to advance the accurate assessment of operational risks in gas-insulated systems.
