A method and a corresponding assembly for detecting corona discharges of a system of equipment includes a sensor assembly that is guided along the system by a vehicle, a first camera for detecting UV radiation is used with a daylight filter for blocking daylight for the sensor assembly, and images of the system are captured by the sensor assembly. The captured images of the camera are provided with a three-dimensional position using an analysis device. Possible corona discharges are detected in each individual image using the analysis device and are transferred into a single three-dimensional space using the respective three-dimensional position. A spatial statistic regarding the frequency of possible current discharges is generated using the analysis device, and the spatial statistic is used to detect actual corona discharges as occurring frequently and at a fixed location in contrast to random noise.
