[0048] To facilitate understanding of the present application, the present application will be described more fully below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings provide embodiments of the present application. However, the present application may be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the present application more thorough and comprehensive.

[0049] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only and are not intended to limit this application. At the same time, the term "and / or" as used in this specification includes any and all combinations of the relevant listed items.

[0050] In the first aspect of the present application, a method for online monitoring of an on-load tap changer is provided, which is applied to a transformer system in which an on-load tap changer is installed. The on-load tap changer includes a vacuum on-load tap changer and an oil on-load tap changer. The embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific type of the on-load tap changer. Figure 1 The on-load tap changer online monitoring method includes steps S200 to S600.

[0051] Step S200: Acquire the operating data of the on-load tap changer collected by the collection device.

[0052] The acquisition equipment includes various types of sensors and monitoring devices, used to collect data on various parameters of the on-load tap changer and transmit the collected data to the controller after conditioning. In one embodiment, the acquisition equipment includes a gear position sensor, a current Hall effect sensor, a vibration sensor, a speed sensor, an oil level sensor, an oil temperature sensor, a motor trigger signal acquisition device, and a device for monitoring dissolved gas concentration and moisture in the insulating oil. It will be understood that the operating data of the on-load tap changer acquired by the controller includes collected values ​​of multiple parameters that can reflect the operating status of the on-load tap changer. By comprehensively analyzing this operating data, the operating status and fault information of the on-load tap changer can be determined.

[0053] Step S400: performing fault diagnosis of the on-load tap changer according to the operating data to obtain a fault diagnosis result.

[0054] Specifically, depending on the type of operating data collected by the acquisition equipment, the controller may perform fault diagnosis after synchronously processing the operating data to obtain a diagnostic result; or further perform data conditioning to obtain data that meets the fault diagnosis requirements and then perform fault diagnosis to obtain a diagnostic result. The fault diagnosis result may include the diagnosis result of the current operating fault and the diagnosis result of the potential fault. Diagnosing the current operating fault is conducive to targeted maintenance to restore the on-load tapchanger to normal operation; diagnosing potential faults can predict the operating status of the on-load tapchanger in advance and issue accident warnings. For example, when the number of tap changes of the on-load tapchanger reaches the overhaul number threshold, the current on-load tapchanger can still operate without fault, but there will be a greater potential fault risk. At this time, through potential fault diagnosis, the staff is reminded to perform core inspection and maintenance, which is conducive to reducing potential risks.

[0055] Furthermore, when the fault diagnosis result is no fault, the process returns to step S200 , and the controller re-acquires the operating data collected by the collection device on the on-load tap changer to perform the next round of fault diagnosis.

[0056] Due to the varying parameter types of specific operating data, the controller's on-load tap-changer fault diagnosis methods vary accordingly. The following uses trigger signal data as an example. When the on-load tap-changer operates, the controller acquires trigger signal data from the acquisition device and compares it with standard data. This analysis derives the electrical life of the on-load tap-changer and, in turn, the wear status of the switch contacts, enabling fault diagnosis and a diagnostic result.

[0057] It is understood that the various types of operating data described above can independently or collaboratively reflect the operating conditions of the on-load tap changer. In one embodiment, the operating data includes insulating oil monitoring data and operating status monitoring data, and the fault diagnosis results include the nature of the fault and the type of fault. The controller performs fault diagnosis on the on-load tap changer based on the operating data to obtain the fault diagnosis results, including: performing fault diagnosis on the on-load tap changer based on a preset algorithm based on the insulating oil monitoring data to obtain the nature of the fault; and performing fault diagnosis on the on-load tap changer based on a multi-parameter fault diagnosis algorithm based on the operating status monitoring data to obtain the type of fault. In one embodiment, the insulating oil monitoring data includes data on the gas and trace water content in the insulating oil, and the operating status monitoring data includes position data, motor current data, vibration data, speed data, oil level data, oil temperature data, and trigger signal data.

[0058] Step S600: Determine the fault component and fault mode of the on-load tap changer according to the fault diagnosis result.

[0059] Common faults of on-load tapchangers include: increased impurities in the insulating oil, oil leakage, oil-free switching, poor contact, prolonged switching times, or inability to complete switching. Faulty components and failure modes of on-load tapchangers include: worn switch contacts; damage to electrical connectors, cables, and contact points; oil leakage from switch seals and gaskets; excessive contact resistance in the switch circuit; damage to the switch transition resistor; fatigue and vacuum bubble damage in the energy storage spring. Specifically, on-load tapchanger fault diagnosis is performed based on operating data containing collected values ​​of various types of parameters. Once the fault diagnosis results are obtained, the faulty component and failure mode of the on-load tapchanger can be determined based on the fault diagnosis results.

[0060] Furthermore, after completing the online monitoring of the on-load tap changer, the process also includes outputting the monitoring results. Specifically, the monitoring results can be in the form of sound, light, or a combination of sound and light, or text. When outputting the monitoring results in the form of sound, light, or a combination of sound and light, different sounds or lights of different colors can represent the severity of the fault. When outputting the monitoring results in the form of text, the monitoring results can include the faulty component and fault mode, and can also include the fault diagnosis results obtained in step S400. The output object of the monitoring results can be a display or a terminal. The terminal can be a server, a tablet, or a mobile phone.

[0061] The above-described on-load tapchanger online monitoring method acquires operating data by collecting data on various parameters of the on-load tapchanger. Based on this collected operating data, fault diagnosis of the on-load tapchanger is performed to obtain a diagnosis result. Finally, based on the diagnosis result, the fault mode and faulty component of the on-load tapchanger are determined. Throughout the monitoring process, a variety of data reflecting the operating status of the on-load tapchanger are collected, and the operating status is determined based on this data. This comprehensively considers the impact of multiple factors on the operating status of the on-load tapchanger, which helps improve the accuracy of the on-load tapchanger operating status determination result.

[0062] In one embodiment, the operation data includes insulating oil monitoring data and operation status monitoring data, and the fault diagnosis result includes fault nature and fault type. Figure 2 , step S400 includes step S420 and step S440.

[0063] Step S420: performing fault diagnosis of the on-load tap changer based on the insulating oil monitoring data and a preset algorithm to obtain the nature of the fault.

[0064] Specifically, by analyzing the insulating oil monitoring data, monitoring data related to the insulating oil can be obtained, and then the fault diagnosis of the on-load tap changer can be performed through a preset algorithm to determine whether it is an overheating fault, a discharge fault, or a discharge and overheating fault, and whether the overheating fault is a low-temperature, medium-temperature, or high-temperature overheating fault, and whether the discharge fault is a high-energy or low-energy discharge fault.

[0065] In one embodiment, the insulating oil monitoring data includes data on the gas and water content in the insulating oil. Dissolved gases in the insulating oil include H2, CH4, C2H4, C2H6, C2H2, and the like. Oil chromatography analysis can be used to determine the content of these gases and water in the insulating oil.

[0066] In one embodiment, the preset algorithm includes a three-ratio method, an intelligent algorithm based on PSO (Particle swarm optimization)-SVM (support vector machines), and / or an intelligent algorithm based on case reasoning. The three-ratio method is a commonly used method for fault diagnosis of oil-filled electrical equipment. The specific principle is: based on the mutual dependence of the relative concentration of the gas component content generated by the decomposition of the insulating oil in the on-load tap changer and the temperature, gases with similar solubility and diffusion coefficients are combined in pairs to form three pairs of gas content ratios, and then fault diagnosis is performed based on the preset coding and fault judgment rules to obtain the nature of the fault. Due to the complex process conditions of the on-load tap changer during actual operation, the use of only the three-ratio method for fault diagnosis has the problem of insufficient accuracy and universality. Using an intelligent algorithm based on PSO-SVM and an intelligent algorithm based on case reasoning as a supplement to the three-ratio method is conducive to improving the accuracy of fault diagnosis of the on-load tap changer.

[0067] The specific process for applying a PSO-SVM-based intelligent algorithm to on-load tap-changer fault diagnosis is as follows: Based on insulating oil monitoring data, a particle swarm optimization algorithm with improved global solution performance is first used to solve the optimal parameters that affect the support vector machine classification and detection performance. These optimal parameters are then applied to a support vector machine algorithm, which excels at pattern recognition, to train sample data and construct a fault diagnosis model. Finally, the fault diagnosis model is used to diagnose on-load tap-changer faults. The specific process for applying a case-based reasoning intelligent algorithm to on-load tap-changer fault diagnosis is as follows: a case library is first established based on historical fault diagnosis results. Then, based on currently acquired insulating oil monitoring data, the case library is searched for fault diagnosis and the fault type is confirmed. Furthermore, the aforementioned multiple fault diagnosis algorithms can be used singly or in combination to determine the fault diagnosis result.

[0068] Step S440: performing fault diagnosis of the on-load tap changer based on the operating status monitoring data and a multi-parameter fault diagnosis algorithm to obtain the fault type.

[0069] Specifically, the operating status monitoring data includes collected values ​​of various types of parameters that can reflect the operating status of the on-load tap changer. Based on this data, a multi-parameter fault diagnosis algorithm is used to diagnose faults of the on-load tap changer, thereby determining the type of fault and providing a basis for identifying the faulty component of the on-load tap changer.

[0070] In one embodiment, operating status monitoring data includes gear sensor position data, motor current data, vibration data, speed data, oil level data, oil temperature data, and trigger signal data. Based on this data reflecting the operating status and fault conditions of the on-load tap changer, fault diagnosis is performed using a multi-parameter tap changer diagnostic algorithm. This allows real-time capture of current and potential fault information, identifies the fault type, and provides irreplaceable data support for tap changer maintenance and condition-based inspection.

[0071] In one embodiment, a multi-parameter tap changer fault diagnosis algorithm includes a fault diagnosis algorithm based on preventive testing and trustworthiness, and / or a fault diagnosis algorithm combining clustering with SVM. The specific process of the fault diagnosis algorithm based on preventive testing and trustworthiness is as follows: preventive test data that can reflect the operating status and fault conditions of the on-load tap changer is used as system input, and the fault type is diagnosed by extracting key signals and data of the on-load tap changer (including data based on preventive test procedure requirements) and combining it with a threshold diagnosis algorithm based on fuzzy relationship theory data and a tap changer diagnosis algorithm combined with a support vector machine. The fault diagnosis algorithm combining clustering with SVM is also a self-learning algorithm. It analyzes the clustering statistical characteristics of the operating data through a fuzzy clustering algorithm, divides more complex fault classes into multiple fault subsets, generates a decision binary tree, and then designs a combination strategy of SVM according to the structure of the decision binary tree to achieve fault type diagnosis.

[0072] In the above embodiment, different algorithms are used to perform fault diagnosis based on different operating data to determine the fault nature and type of the on-load tap changer. This can capture current and potential fault information of the on-load tap changer in real time, improve the accuracy of fault diagnosis, enrich the information content of the fault diagnosis results, and provide irreplaceable data support for the maintenance and condition-based inspection of the tap changer.

[0073] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 , after step S600, it also includes step S800.

[0074] Step S800: Evaluate the health status of the on-load tap changer based on the operating data, faulty components, and fault modes, and output the evaluation results.

[0075] Specifically, after determining the faulty component and fault mode of the on-load tap changer based on the fault diagnosis results, the current fault information for each component and information about potential faults can be listed. Based on this fault information and preset health status assessment criteria, the controller then performs a health status assessment on the on-load tap changer and outputs the assessment results. The controller can output the assessment results via wired or wireless communication. The target of the output of the assessment results can be a display or a terminal. The assessment results can include the on-load tap changer health status assessment results and can also include action recommendations corresponding to the health status assessment results. In short, this embodiment does not limit the output method, output target, or specific content of the assessment results.

[0076] The health status assessment results can be expressed as a specific score or as a health status level. For example, A, B, C, and D can be used to represent different health status levels, with the health status gradually deteriorating from A to D. Level A indicates that the on-load tapchanger is operating normally; Level B indicates that the on-load tapchanger's performance has changed, but it can continue to operate for a preset period; Level C indicates that the on-load tapchanger's performance has changed significantly and it can continue to operate at present, but it cannot maintain the preset period; Level D indicates that the on-load tapchanger is unavailable or may fail in the short term. It is understood that the above-mentioned preset period can be 30 days or other time lengths, set according to the time conditions of the on-load tapchanger. This embodiment does not limit the length of the preset period.

[0077] Furthermore, corresponding action recommendations can be output for different health status levels. For example, when the health status of the on-load tapchanger is B, an action recommendation can be output to increase the intensity and frequency of monitoring, and the operation and maintenance department and relevant personnel can be notified accordingly. When the health status of the on-load tapchanger is C, a status report and corrective actions can be issued, and a corrective maintenance request can be submitted and included in the work plan. If further testing results indicate that the equipment is stable and there is no sign of further degradation, the next major overhaul can be scheduled. When the health status of the on-load tapchanger is D, a recommendation to deactivate the equipment can be output, and the operation and maintenance department and relevant personnel can be notified to carry out repairs.

[0078] In the above embodiment, the on-load tap changer health status is assessed based on operating data, faulty components, and failure modes, and the assessment results are output. This enables real-time fault and potential fault warnings for the on-load tap changer, minimizes sudden failures of the on-load tap changer, effectively reduces maintenance and overhaul costs for the power supply system, and improves the reliability of the on-load tap changer operation.

[0079] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 , step S800 includes step S820 and step S840.

[0080] Step S820: Acquire the type and warning value of the corresponding parameter according to the operating data, perform a quantitative assessment of the health status of the on-load tap changer according to the type and standard value of each parameter, and output the assessment result.

[0081] Specifically, for indicators that can be continuously monitored, these parameters can be classified and their types determined based on their importance. Parameter types can be numbers, letters, or text. For example, "General Category 1 Indicator," "General Category 2 Indicator," "Important Indicator," and "Key Indicator" can be used to indicate increasing importance of parameters. This operating data is then classified into multiple health status levels based on the on-load tap changer's safe operating specifications, operating environment, and industry experience, and the corresponding parameter value ranges for each health status level are defined. Based on the operating data, the controller determines the health status level and parameter type for each parameter. It then performs a quantitative health assessment based on pre-set scoring criteria, determines the on-load tap changer's health assessment score, and outputs the assessment results.

[0082] Step S840: Perform a qualitative assessment of the health status of the on-load tap changer based on the faulty component and the fault mode, and output the assessment result.

[0083] Specifically, for indicators that cannot be continuously monitored, the controller performs a qualitative assessment of the health status of the on-load tap changer based on the number of faulty components and the severity of the fault, and outputs the assessment results. Below, A, B, C, and D are still used to represent different health status levels, and the health status deteriorates from A to D. Level A can indicate no defects; Level B can indicate the discovery of one defect; Level C can indicate the discovery of two defects; Level D can indicate the discovery of three or more defects, or the discovery of repeated defects within the same acquisition cycle, or the discovery of equipment unavailability. Among them, the defects mentioned above are defects that significantly affect the function of the switch, and the number of defects is determined by the controller based on the faulty components and failure mode.

[0084] In the above embodiment, quantitative or qualitative health status assessment is performed according to parameter types of different operating data, which can maximize the detection and prevention of sudden failures of the on-load tap changer and improve the reliability of the on-load tap changer operation.

[0085] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 , step S820 includes steps S821 to S824.

[0086] Step S821: According to the operating data, obtain the type and warning value of the parameter corresponding to the operating data.

[0087] As mentioned above, parameters can be categorized and assigned a parameter type based on their importance. Parameter types can be numbers, letters, or text. For example, "General Category 1 Indicator," "General Category 2 Indicator," "Important Indicator," and "Key Indicator" can represent increasing parameter importance. Warning values ​​can include lower and upper warning limits, corresponding to the upper and lower limits of the standard value range.

[0088] Step S822: Determine the degradation level of the parameter based on the operating data and the warning value of the parameter corresponding to the operating data.

[0089] The parameter degradation level can correspond to the health status level described above, and the degradation level corresponding to each parameter can be distinguished by a preset numerical range. For ease of understanding, A, B, C, and D are used to represent different degradation levels, and the situation from A to D represents increasingly worse health status is explained. Level A can indicate that the parameter is within the standard value range, or slightly deviates from the standard value range, but the difference with the warning value is greater than the first preset threshold; Level B can indicate that the difference between the parameter value and the warning value is less than the first preset threshold but greater than the second preset threshold, where the second preset threshold is less than the first preset threshold, that is, the parameter value is close to the warning value; Level C can indicate that the difference between the parameter value and the warning value is less than the second preset threshold, that is, the parameter value is closer to the warning value than the parameter value corresponding to Level B; Level D can indicate that the parameter value reaches the warning value, that is, if it is not controlled, the health status will continue to deteriorate, thereby causing a major failure.

[0090] Step S823: Determine the deduction value of each parameter according to the type and degradation level of each parameter.

[0091] Specifically, the higher the importance of the corresponding parameter and the worse the degradation level, the higher the deduction value. Table 1 below shows the deduction criteria for different degradation levels for various parameter types in one embodiment. It should be understood that the above deduction criteria are not limited to the values ​​in Table 1; different parameter types, degradation levels, and deduction values ​​can be set based on actual conditions. This embodiment does not limit the parameter types, degradation levels, or specific deduction values. Furthermore, the parameter types and deduction criteria can be determined based on the characteristics of the equipment connected to the on-load tap changer.

[0092] Table 1: Deduction criteria for different degradation levels for each type of parameter

[0093] Degradation level General Class 1 indicators General Category 2 indicators Important indicators Key Metrics A 2 4 6 8 B 4 8 12 16 C 8 16 24 32 D 10 20 30 40

[0094] Step S824: Determine and output the quantitative evaluation result of the on-load tap changer health status based on the maximum value of the deduction points of each parameter.

[0095] Specifically, the score of the quantitative evaluation result is determined according to the short board principle, that is, the monitoring task with the largest deduction value is selected as the result of the quantitative evaluation and output.

[0096] In the above embodiment, when performing the quantitative assessment of the health status of the on-load tap changer, the importance and degradation degree of each parameter are comprehensively considered, and the quantitative assessment result is determined according to the weak link principle, which can improve the accuracy of the assessment result.

By combining the main box and the mounting bracket, the on-load tap-changer online monitoring system can be quickly installed on site. Figure 15-17 This figure shows the installation location of the on-load tap changer online monitoring system. As shown in the figure, the main chassis of the on-load tap changer online monitoring system is mounted on the base of the on-load tap changer via a mounting bracket. After installation, the main chassis is located below the tap changer operating box. A current Hall effect sensor 12 is installed in the tap changer operating box. It collects the drive motor current in real time at a preset period, calculates the effective value in segments, and calculates the average value to obtain motor current data. The controller 200 then compares the motor current data with the normal threshold for fault diagnosis. An oil level sensor 150 is installed on the top of the on-load tap changer. An oil temperature sensor 160 and a vibration sensor 130 are installed on the tap changer head cover. An oil extraction pipe, connected to the switch S pipe, is used to extract the insulating oil from the on-load tap changer diverter switch. The oil extraction pipe delivers the extracted insulating oil to the insulating oil dissolved gas concentration and trace water monitoring device 180. The device 180 monitors the dissolved gas concentration and water content in the insulating oil, separating the oil and gas and analyzing the dissolved gas and water content. The analyzed insulating oil is then returned to the on-load tap-changer through the oil return line and the switch Q. This infinitely fast oil circulation circuit enables real-time monitoring of the dissolved gas concentration and water content in the on-load tap-changer's insulating oil.
