[0002] In recent years, transformer operation status diagnosis technology has moved from offline testing to a stage of integrating online sensing and intelligent analysis, exhibiting three-dimensional characteristics: diversified sensing methods, intelligent diagnostic models, and predictive operation and maintenance decisions, enabling rapid response and predictability of operation diagnosis results.

[0003] Currently, Chinese invention patent CN120195538A discloses a method for online monitoring and fault diagnosis of on-load tap changers in transformers. This method obtains predicted fault probability data when the on-load tap changer switches during switching operations by inputting the operating data into a trained fault probability prediction model. It then determines whether the on-load tap changer meets preset target conditions. If the on-load tap changer meets the preset target conditions, its state is determined to be normal; if it does not meet the preset target conditions, its state is determined to be faulty. However, this related technology does not investigate the impact of component problems on the data, which is not conducive to accurate judgment of the tap changer's state and is prone to misjudgment. It also does not quantify the tap changer's state, which is not conducive to the clarity of state judgment. Furthermore, it does not establish a correlation between the relevant data of the tap changer and the circuit voltage to predict the tap changer's state, which is not conducive to the simplicity and foresight of the tap changer's state judgment and has certain limitations.

Based on the current waveforms on both sides of the tap changer and the tap changer pulse time sequence, calculate the tap changer delay time. Calculate the voltage stability based on the secondary side data. Calculate the tap changer damage level based on the primary side data. Classify and output the state level based on the tap changer damage level.

[0033] The first failure time is predicted based on the delay duration and the preset delay duration.

[0034] More preferably, by predicting the first fault time point, the system can detect potential faults in advance, achieve predictive maintenance, and avoid power outages caused by sudden faults. It integrates various data from the primary and secondary sides, such as electrical quantities, timing, and waveforms, and combines them with circuit models and specific analyses of key components to form a multi-dimensional and systematic diagnostic system. This system can more accurately identify complex fault modes of transformers than traditional single-parameter monitoring. By integrating multi-source data, analysis, model calculation, and predictive evaluation, it achieves comprehensive, intelligent, and refined management of transformer operating status.

[0037] More preferably, the switching between the positive and negative half-cycles is achieved by controlling the power switching transistor to switch the current direction, and the boost or buck voltage is achieved by adjusting the coil turns ratio. Utilizing the unidirectional conductivity of the diode connected in parallel with the tap changer, when the transformer operates in the positive half-cycle, the reverse-connected diode and its corresponding tap changer are disabled, while the positively connected diode and its corresponding tap changer are enabled. When the transformer operates in the negative half-cycle, the positively connected diode and its corresponding tap changer are disabled, while the reverse-connected diode and its corresponding tap changer are enabled. Positive or reverse connection means the current flows in the same direction as or opposite to the forward current flow direction; disabled means the corresponding circuit section is ignored.

[0038] More preferably, a pull-down resistor is connected in parallel with the tap changer, so that when the tap changer is active and performs a closing or opening operation, the instantaneous current of the circuit where the tap changer is located is reduced, so that the instantaneous current of the circuit where the tap changer is located is less than the breakdown current of each component in the instantaneous current of the circuit where the tap changer is located, wherein each component in the circuit where the tap changer is located includes capacitors and inductors.

[0039] More preferably, the transformer includes a primary side and a secondary side, the primary side being the side connected to the power source and the secondary side being the side connected to the load, the primary side and the secondary side being mutually inducted through the magnetic effect of the coils.

[0040] More preferably, the tap changer is driven by a tap changer drive signal, which includes an open signal and a close signal. The tap changer drive signal represents the drive signal sent by opening or closing any tap changer, and is implemented by a preset PLC code.

The start value of the start timer is set to the first value, and the output value of the output timer is set to the second value. The timing unit of both the start timer and the output timer is seconds. The output value includes 0 and 1. When the output value is 0, the tap switch is in the open state, and when the output value is 1, the tap switch is in the closed state.

[0042] When the start timer reaches the first value, the corresponding start contact is closed, and the output value is 1. When the output value is 1, a closing signal is sent, the tap changer receives the closing signal and is in the closed state, the start timer stops counting, and the output timer starts counting. When the value of the output timer is the second value, the reset button is triggered to clear the start timer, the start contact returns to the normally open contact, an open signal is sent, the tap changer receives the open signal and is in the open state.

[0045] More preferably, when the primary side is in the positive half-cycle, the output voltage of the primary side is directly induced by the coil to become the input voltage of the secondary side. When the primary side is in the negative half-cycle, the output voltage of the primary side is first converted into a positive voltage by a charge pump, and then induced by the coil to become the input voltage of the secondary side.

[0048] More preferably, under the test conditions, the first angular velocity is set as the sliding speed of the sliding pointer controlled by the first selection result. According to the rotation direction of the sliding pointer controlled by the first selection result, the sliding pointer is slid according to the first angular velocity to obtain the test result, which is represented as time series data.
