Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a coaxial lead structure and method for radiating a GIS partial discharge UHF signal outward. The structure includes a GIS cavity, a circular hole provided on the GIS cavity, a medium cylinder provided at the circular hole and sealing the circular hole, a thin cylindrical metal lead that extends into and is fixed to the medium cylinder, and a ground lead connected to the thin cylindrical metal lead. According to the present disclosure, a relatively strong signal may be obtained outside a coaxial lead structure, and detection of a partial discharge UHF signal at this position may increase the detection sensitivity by one time compared with the detection methods of built-in and external disc insulators.
