 note = {Partial Discharge (PD) measurements are very promising for insulation condition monitoring in Gas Insulated Switchgears (GISs). However, for accurate PD detection and diagnosis, there is a need for better understanding of physical mechanisms behind PD activity. Accordingly, we have been investigating the PD characteristics and associated mechanisms for electrode/epoxy delamination of GIS spacers as one of the most serious defects in GIS. The gas pressure inside delamination usually changes from sub-atmospheric pressure, just after delamination initiates, to filled SF6 gas pressure in the GIS tank, after SF6  gas permeates into the delamination area. Therefore, in this paper, the PD activity at different gas pressures, from 0.02 MPa to 0.4 MPa, is acquired. The relative PD generation rate and its phase appearance are analyzed at different pressures and then discussed from the viewpoint of PD mechanism and PD detection. Experimental results show that, with increasing pressure, the peak of the PD generation rate shifts from around zero crossing like void-type discharge to around a peak of ac voltage, before PD pulses vanish at high pressure for the applied electric field stress. The obtained results could be useful for delamination diagnosis in GIS spacers.},
