Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of transformer fault diagnosis technology, specifically a method for diagnosing inter-turn short-circuit faults in transformer windings. Background Technology

[0002] Power transformers are core equipment for power grid conversion and transmission. Their operating status directly affects power supply reliability and energy utilization efficiency. Under the goal of green and low-carbon development, their energy-saving and environmentally friendly operation is particularly critical. If a transformer operates abnormally due to a short circuit fault between winding turns, it will not only significantly increase power transmission losses, but may also cause grid load imbalance due to fault shutdown, leading to additional energy waste and carbon emissions.

[0003] However, traditional transformer winding testing methods have significant limitations: First, there is a lack of research on the correlation between differentiated inter-turn short circuit conditions and diagnostic methods, resulting in low fault location accuracy, long testing cycles, frequent repeated tests, and high energy consumption throughout the process; Second, some technologies require long-term offline testing, during which backup equipment needs to be activated to maintain power supply, which increases energy consumption, and some testing methods can damage the cable body, shorten the equipment life, and indirectly increase resource consumption and environmental burden.

[0004] The oscillating wave method, as a novel testing technology, effectively solves the aforementioned problems and also boasts energy-saving and environmental advantages: multiple fault simulation tests can be completed with a single wiring connection, reducing the energy consumption of multiple wiring and repeated tests in traditional testing; its core principle utilizes a closed-loop system formed by a high-voltage DC power supply and capacitors, and achieves periodic charging and discharging through regular control of switches, eliminating the need for continuous high-power supply and significantly reducing testing energy consumption; it also features short testing time, minimal cable damage, and accurate defect location, reducing excessive repair and ineffective testing, and minimizing resource waste. Currently, this technology has gained widespread attention in the field of power insulation testing, providing theoretical and practical support for solving the above problems.

[0005] The frequent occurrence of extreme weather and the widening difference between peak and off-peak loads have led to an increase in transformer failure rates. If faults are not diagnosed in time, the long-term inefficient operation of transformers will result in significant energy loss, and power outages due to faults may also trigger a chain reaction of energy consumption problems such as power supply fluctuations and the startup of backup equipment.
