5 Fault Diagnosis Techniques for Large Power Transformers
Transformer Fault Diagnosis Methods1. Ratio Method for Dissolved Gas AnalysisFor most oil-immersed power transformers, certain combustible gases are produced in the transformer tank under thermal and electrical stress. The combustible gases dissolved in oil can be used to determine the thermal decomposition characteristics of the transformer oil-paper insulation system based on their specific gas content and ratios. This technology was first used for fault diagnosis in oil-immersed transformers.
