The largest problem in applying the elecbical partial discharge measurement method the transformer that has been operated until now is the removal of external corona noise In this thesis, a methcd was studied. to rneasme only fue partial discharge sIgnal due to the defoct in transfonrer except the external corona noise. To find out the types of partial discharge and corona noise within a transfomr, a partial discharge was made in use of a needle-plane electrodes within a model transfonner and, at the same time, an external corona noise was generated in use of a rod-sphere electrcdes in the air around the transformer. Both of a partial clischarge signal caused from an intemat defect within a transformer and an external noise were found at the rogowski coil which was located at transformer earth wire. When the external corona noise, which was separately measured in use of an antenna sensor out of transfonner, was removed from the signal measured on rogowski coil, the signal caused by partial discharge within a transformer would effectively be acquired.quired.
