PD-TaD 80 Portable PD Diagnostics System
The lightest and most compact VLF PD measuring device on the market up to 80 kV
PD-TaD 80 Features
- PD level measurement according to IEC 60270
- PD source localization and display of PD activity over the cable length
- Coupling capacitor incl. measuring impedance and PD measuring unit in one device
- Menu guided control software
- VLF cable testing with parallel PD testing
- Tan delta measurement
- Usage with external HV source up to 57 kVrms (80 kVpeak) VLF truesinus®
The PD-TaD 80 is light, robust and portable, which makes it ideal for installation in cable test vans. In combination with the PHG 80 Portable, the PD-TaD 80 is also suitable for mobile use in the field.

PD Diagnostic Software
- Exact location of PD activities in cable insulation, joints, and terminations
- Automatic calibration of PD measurement system
- Safe evaluation of PD intensity
- Automatic partial discharge measurement with the automatic entry of inception voltage and location of PD sources
- VLF standard test and PD measurement simultaneously
- Comfortable completion of measurement
- Reliable location of weak points in the cable even at noise levels through filtering and display of parasitic frequencies (frequency filter)
- Easy and quick evaluation through automatic evaluation mode, measurement data filter and quick access keys
- Clear presentation of PD activities over the entire cable length
- Phase Resolved PD Patterns – Precise interpretation of measurement results through presentation of PD level and PD frequency in relation to the phase angle of the test voltage
