 Abstract   IGBT hybrid power modules used in railway applications are constituted of several dielectric materials. When a high voltage is applied, this dielectric material stack may be a source of partial discharges. We present a new method for determining partial discharges activity in power modules. PD appears for voltages lower than the ones found according to the normalized test. In this paper the method and possible sources of PD are investigated.
