This short video shows how a difference between the power system frequency and the Partial Discharge measuring instrument affects the results. The video example uses a 50 Hz power frequency and also applies to 60 Hz.

Our handheld UltraTEV Plus 2 has built in Photo and Electric Field (E-Field) sensors to detect power system frequency. The Wireless Phase Reference remote accessory makes achieving phase frequency lock much easier.
