An investigation on partial discharge (PD) propagation in power cables is carried out in this paper with the aim of inferring limits for PD detection as a function of the distance between PD source and detector. Although this problem has not an exact solution unless noise levels are not specified, useful information concerning detectability and error in estimates are provided in this paper for both medium and high voltage polymeric cables. The issue of calibrator characteristics with respect to sensitivity detection is also tackled. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
