A DEVICE FOR SENSING OF ELECTRIC DISCHARGES IN A TEST OBJECT

摘要

A device for sensing electric discharges in a test object (1) with at least two electric connection conductors (1a, 1b, 1c, 1d) comprises transducer equipment and evaluation equipment (PA, ABU, LU). The transducer equipment comprises at least one transducer (6a, 6b, 6c, 6d) for direction-sensitive sensing of current pulses through the connection conductors by sensing a magnetic field, generated by the current pulses, and the polarity thereof. The transducer delivers a transducer signal (v1", v2", v3", v4", v11", v21") to the evaluation equipment in dependence on said current pulses and their direction. The evaluation equipment generates, in dependence on received transducer signals, an indicating signal (IND) indicating an electric discharge in the test object.
