Figure 4-9: Frequency dependent dissipation factor of two OIP bushings (phase A and phase B
If the dissipation factor is also dependent on the voltage, this is an indication for partial discharges or
contact problems. Figure 4-10 shows a measurement of a 6kV motor. Above 4kV, partial discharges
occur which increase the dissipation factor.
