HHT-DB

HHT-DB is a database comprising photos, sound recordings, ultrasonic signals converted via heterodyning, and reports generated by the Sonotec-Sonaphone III from inspections conducted at a 69/138/230 kV substation in Brazil. This database is associated with the scientific article titled "Advancing substation inspection: The Hilbert-Huang transform approach for partial discharge recognition and assessment," submitted for peer review to the journal Measurement.

HHT-DB includes six field-assessed case studies:

  • IS-PhaseA: Insulator string (Phase A).
  • IS-PhaseB: Insulator string (Phase B).
  • IS-PhaseC: Insulator string (Phase C).
  • BN: Background noise, distant from any equipment.
  • AS: Ambient sounds in the substation area.
  • XFMR: Transformer with the cooling system turned off.

Each case study may contain $n$ sets of records. For instance, measurements for the insulator string, phase A (IS-PhaseA), include three subfolders labeled 01, 02, and 03.

Each subfolder organizes inspection data and records into the following directories:

  • Photos: Photographic records of the inspection.
  • Report: Automatically generated reports from the Sonotec-Sonaphone III (DataSuite).
  • SoundRecordings: Audio recordings captured alongside each ultrasonic signature.
  • ThermographicImages: Thermographic images acquired using the Fluke Ti25.
  • UltrasonicSignatures: Ultrasonic signatures recorded with the Sonotec-Sonaphone III coupled with the Sonotec-BS30 parabolic sensor.

The figure below illustrates the database structure, highlighting the files contained in subfolder 01 of the case study for the insulator string, phase A (IS-PhaseA).
