Kinectrics’ Innovations in High-Voltage Diagnostics: UV Camera Technology & Advanced Testing

Meet Ivan Boev, Principal Engineer at Kinectrics HV lab. At Kinectrics, OFIL Systems’ Luminar UV camera is one of the main tools used to test for corona partial discharge in the High Voltage lab. In this video, Ivan highlights the significant impact this camera has had on their operations: it pinpoints Corona partial discharge sources in full light, ensuring the equipment’s health and reliability.

Listen to Andrew Rizzetto, Service Line Manager, Field Services of Overhead Lines at Kinectrics HV lab talk about how assessing corona partial discharge in electrical substations leads to cost savings and extends the life of overhead lines.
He talks about the extensive testing he does of line hardware, structures, insulators, switches, and connectors using a daylight corona camera, such as the OFIL Systems Luminar.
“Corona on an overhead transmission line can cause power loss, increased audible noise, electromagnetic interference, installation failure, equipment failure, and environmental concerns.”
