The dissipation factor is in many cases also dependent on the test voltage.
Figure 5-17 shows a measurement of a 6kV motor. Above 4kV, partial
discharges occur. This is the reason for the rise of DF.

5.2 Measurement of Capacitance and Dissipation
Factor / Power Factor
Capacitance (C) and Dissipation Factor (DF) measurement was first published
by Schering in 1919 [2.1] and utilized for this purpose in 1924 (Figure 5-18). The
