Phase-controlled operation of thyristor power rectifiers requires instantaneous phase information the fundamental component grid voltage in order to generate proper gating sequence. In many high-power, high-precision applications, such as driving bending magnets large particle accelerators, converters are fed from a local grid, which produces significant frequency variations and notches superimposed sinusoidal AC due commutation interval. These strong disturbances impose some difficulties...

On-site partial discharge (PD) measurements have turned out to be a very efficient technique for determining the insulation condition in high-voltage electrical grids (AIS, cable systems, GIS, HVDC converters, etc.); however, there is not any standardised procedure performances of PD measuring systems. In on-line and on-site measurements, high-frequency current transformers (HFCTs) are commonly used as sensors they allow monitoring over long distances installations. To ensure required...
