The invention relates to a power
transformer with an active anti-
deflagration function and a monitoring method. The power
transformer comprises a
transformer oil tank, an ascending flanged base, a high-
voltage bushing, a short-circuit
copper sheet, a neutral point
bushing, a high-frequency sensor and an
ultrasonic sensor. The ascending flanged base and the neutral
bushing are connected to the top of the
transformer oil tank; one end of the high-
voltage bushing is connected with the ascending flanged base through a bolt; two ends of the short-circuit
copper sheet are respectively connected with two ends of any bolt; the neutral point bushing is grounded through a grounding wire; and the high-frequency sensor is respectively connected in series with the short-circuit
copper sheet and the grounding wire. The ultrasonic sensors are arranged in the ascending flanged base and the
transformer oil tank respectively, and the ultrasonic sensors in the
transformer oil tank are distributed on the upper portion, the middle portion and the lower portion of the transformer
oil tank. According to the power transformer, two kinds of
partial discharge signals at different positions are collected, whether
discharge occurs at different positions in the transformer or not is accurately judged in combination with a logic judgment method, the severity degree is judged, and therefore early warning or
tripping instructions are accurately output at the initial stage of a fault to remove the fault, and
operation safety is ensured.
