Partial discharge Partial discharge In electrical engineering, partial discharge (PD) is a localized dielectric breakdown (DB) of a small portion of a solid or fluid electrical insulation (EI) system under high voltage (HV) stress, which does not bridge the space between two conductors. While a corona discharge (CD) is usually revealed by a relatively steady glow or brush discharge (BD) in air, partial discharges within solid insulation system are not visible. PD can occur in a gaseous, liquid or solid insulating medium. It often starts within gas voids, such as voids in solid epoxy insulation or bubbles in transformer oil. Protracted partial
Hiberno-Latin be to cast ridicule on these Vatican-oriented writers by blending their stylistic tricks with incompetent scansion and applying them to unworthy subjects. On a much more intelligible level, the sixth-century Abecedarian hymn "Altus prosator" shows many of the features of Hiberno-Latin: the word "prosator", the "first sower" meaning "creator", refers to God using an unusual neologism. The text of the poem also contains the word "iduma", meaning "hands;" this is probably from Hebrew "yadaim". The poem is also an extended alphabetical acrostic, another example of the wordplay typical of Hiberno-Latin. Irish (but not Continental) manuscripts traditionally attributed the poem to
