Advantages
All-in-One Multi-Technology Integrated Solution
Unlike single-function PD testers, the GDPD-414H integrates four mainstream PD detection technologies into one handheld unit, replacing 4 separate test instruments. It covers all inspection scenarios for MV/HV electrical equipment, greatly reducing user equipment investment and field operation workload.
Strict Global Standard Compliance
Fully designed and calibrated in accordance with IEC 60270 (High-voltage test techniques – Partial discharge measurements), IEC 62478, and GB/T 7354 international standards. Test data is globally recognized, meeting the requirements of power grid inspection, equipment factory certification, and international project handover.
Non-Contact Live-Line Non-Destructive Testing
All detection methods adopt non-invasive, non-destructive testing technology, no need for equipment power outage, no disassembly of equipment body, no impact on the normal operation of HV electrical equipment. It enables full-time live-line patrol inspection, completing insulation defect screening without affecting the normal power supply of the grid.
Ultra-High Sensitivity & Intelligent Fault Diagnosis
1pC ultra-high detection sensitivity and advanced digital filtering technology accurately capture weak PD signals from early insulation defects. AI-powered defect type recognition and PRPD pattern analysis enable even non-professional operators to quickly judge equipment insulation status, greatly reducing the technical threshold for on-site inspection.
Field-Proven Portability & Long Endurance
Ergonomic handheld design, 1.2kg ultra-light weight, and 12+ hours of continuous battery life perfectly adapt to all-day on-site patrol inspection in remote substations and industrial sites. IP54 rugged housing ensures stable operation in harsh outdoor environments with high dust, high humidity, and strong electromagnetic interference.
Superior Total Cost of Ownership
Integrated design eliminates the need to purchase multiple separate PD testers, reducing upfront capital expenditure. Long-life industrial-grade sensors and components ensure low failure rate and minimal maintenance costs, while its ability to detect early insulation defects helps clients avoid costly unplanned downtime and equipment failures.
