Gas Insulated Switchgears (GIS) are widely used due to their many benefits. The reliability of GIS is challenged due to the presence of spacer defects and/or metallic particles. Free metallic particles can tremendously reduce the insulation strength of GIS especially when they enter the triple junction region (consisting of the spacer, the electrode and the gaseous medium interface) around the spacer. Therefore, there a need to investigate the effect of charged metallic particle on the field intensification produced along the spacer surface and its consequences on the Partial Discharge Inception Voltage (PDIV). In this study, simulation and experimental results are reported for metallic particles adhering to a cylindrical spacer. The effect of particle charging on the resulting field intensification, particle initiated partial discharge inception voltage as well as Phase Resolved Partial Discharge (PRPD) characteristics are presented in this study. The particle adversely affects the electric field uniformity in the area between the two electrodes. A particle in contact with the electrode causes the most severe intensification in the electric field, while the effect caused by the particle at the gap centre is the least severe.
