Oil-Filled Power Transformers Fault Diagnosis Based on Fuzzy-DRNN

Abstract:

In recent years, improved three-ratio is an effective method for transformer fault diagnosis based on Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA). In this paper, a simple dynamic neural network named as diagonal recurrent neural network (DRNN) is used to resolve the online fault diagnosis problems for oil-filled power transformer based on DGA. Because of the characteristic of improved three-ratio boundary is lack of matching, fuzzy logic in fault diagnosis is presented also to deal with the data of the neural network inputs. DRNN is used to model the fault diagnosis structure, the fuzzy logic is used to improve the faults diagnose reliability. In addition, some cases are used to show the capability of the suggested method in oil-filled power transformers fault diagnosis.
