Abstract

DC bias is a great threat to the safe operation of power transformers. This paper deals with a new vibration-based technique to diagnose DC bias in power transformers. With this technique, the DC bias status of power transformers can be automatically recognized. The vibration variation process of a 500 kV autotransformer is tested under the influence of DC bias in the monopole trail operation stage of a ±800 kV HVDC transmission system. Comparison of transformer vibration under normal and DC-biased conditions is conducted. Three features are proposed and are validated by sensitivity analysis. The principal component analysis method is employed for feature de-correlation and dimensionality reduction. The least square support vector machine algorithm is used and verified successful in DC bias recognition. A remote on-line monitoring device based on the proposed algorithm is designed and applied in field DC bias diagnosis of power transformers. The suggested diagnostic algorithm and monitoring device could be useful in targeted DC bias control and improving the safe operation level of power transformers.
