Legacy transformers are passive, bulky, becoming expensive, and take longer time to deliver. They cannot provide the power quality or control which today’s loads demand for proper functioning and the electric system needs for its survivability. Solid-state transformers have been promising technologies in recent years. EPRI is pursuing development of an innovative solution – the IUTTM (Intellige...

Transformer is the power equipment of power system core. Intelligent monitoring and operation of transformer can not only monitor the full range of the transformer, the realization of state evaluation, it should be required repair, maintenance required good, but also on the latent fault early diagnosis and prediction. Research on transformer intelligent monitoring and operating technology of sa...

The restricted earth fault (REF) relay is a type of differential protection which is used for detection of internal ground faults of power transformers. But, during external faults and transformer energization conditions, the probability of current transformer (CT) saturation increases. Thus, the spurious differential current due to CT saturation, can lead to REF relay maloperation. In this pap...

DGA (Dissolved Gas Analysis) is the traditional transformer fault diagnosis method, but it mainly depends on the experience of operators. In order to solve the limitations of traditional method, this paper introduces intelligent method for fault diagnosis of transformer. The intelligent method made fusion of various data, including SCADA data, oil dissolved gas sensor data, related electrical t...

In accordance with intelligent complementary strategies, a new transformer fault diagnosis method is proposed based on rough set (RS) and fuzzy set (FS) and Bayesian optimal classifier in this paper. Through RS reduction, the diagnostic decision table is greatly simplified and fault symptoms information is compressed, dramatically, and the minimal decision rules can be obtained. In the light of...
