As the voltage decreases, the PD pulses decrease. At the point where less than 50 percent of the
surge pulses have a PD pulse, the software records the current surge voltage level as RPDEV. As
the voltage continues to ramp down, the software continually records the current surge voltage
level at which a PD pulse is detected. The last recorded value is saved as the PDEV (the lowest
voltage at which the detector sees a PD pulse).

10.
When you acquire the extinction thresholds, discontinue the test and save the results.
11.
Repeat the process for additional coils as needed.
Alternatively, you can use the single-coil testing process for testing subsequent coils after setting
a reference coil using the ramp-up process just described. This process is commonly used when
testing for PD using a go/no go approach. If PD is recorded during the process, you can re-test
the suspect coil using the ramp-up approach to get a closer view at PD activity.
1.
Using a known good coil, when you obtain a satisfactory waveform, touch the
Set
Reference
icon and then touch the
ZS Override
icon.
NOTE: Refer to “Determining a Known-good Coil to Use as a Reference” earlier in this chapter for more
information on identifying a known good coil and using the reference features.
