Thus it is of utmost importance to carry out periodic maintenance of this electrical equipment as well as to develop a method that would provide an early stage diagnosis of the transformer insulation abnormalities. Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) is widely considered to be a powerful approach to detect the incipient faults in oil-immersed transformers. But shortcomings in the conventional methods based on DGA are nowadays addressed by various intelligent techniques with enhanced accuracy of fault detection. This paper introduces the implementation of machine learning and proposes a method which utilizes Self-Organizing Map (SOM) and Logistic Regression (LR) to detect and predict the faults occurring in a transformer based on DGA. The DGA dataset used in this paper consists of a variety of cases with six types of faults. The proposed model presents the interpretation of this dataset using clustering analysis by SOM and the model performance parameters are found to be superior to other machine learning algorithms as well as traditional methods. Unlike other fault diagnostic methods which mostly implement single classifiers, this technique uses clustering of the DGA data followed by the application of a classification algorithm which demonstrates high accuracy and reliability of fault identification.","PeriodicalId":191189,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on the Properties and Applications of Dielectric Materials (ICPADM)","volume":"348 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132441818","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is essential to extract the resistive component of the total leakage current prior to determining its third harmonic content. Several methods have been proposed so far to determine the resistive leakage current. But, the implementation of complex mathematical procedures has made these techniques difficult and less accurate. Therefore, this paper is aimed to propose the power factor as a new ageing indicator of MOSA. New indicator is determined without extracting the resistive component of the total leakage current. This study has been performed experimentally on three aged samples of 120 kV rated MOSAs to determine their power factors. The results have shown that the variation in proposed indicator towards arrester’s ageing is similar to that of the resistive third harmonic component. The percentage rise in the power factors of MOSA-I, II, and III by increasing the voltage from 70kV to 120kV to simulate ageing, are found to be 105%, 118%, and 108% respectively.","PeriodicalId":191189,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on the Properties and Applications of Dielectric Materials (ICPADM)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131537785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By numerically modeling the submarine cable system with the PSCAD/EMTDC software, the voltage and current distributions, and power loss on the sheath, armor and total submarine cable under three types of grounding impedors are calculated. The results show that with the increase of resistance value or inductance value, the sheath current decreases, and the armor current and sheath voltage increase, but the overall loss of the submarine cable decreases. When the submarine cable is operating under normal, short-circuit or transient conditions, in which the sheath voltage does not exceed the critical condition of these allowable values, the way that the sheath is grounded via a low resistor is the most beneficial to the power loss reduction. When the corresponding critical resistance value is 2.1 ohms at the start of cable and 1.3 ohms at the end respectively, it will reduce the power loss of cable for one phase 23.5% and the total power loss including resistors for one phase 14.2%, which is conducive to improving both the safety and operation economy of submarine cable.","PeriodicalId":191189,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on the Properties and Applications of Dielectric Materials (ICPADM)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133198710","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, it has implemented the leakage current signal parameters data in the classification process of degraded field-aged insulator. These signal parameters are extracted from the Spectrogram. Prior to this analysis, the leakage current signal is captured during the testing method of inclined plane tracking. The physical evaluations such as arithmetical mean of surface roughness and static contact angle are also measured for the purpose of comparison of surface conditions. The Support Vector Machine is implemented in the machine learning test, in which the percentage of classification accuracy between degraded sample and the controlled sample is recorded. To validate the classification results obtained, the insulator sheds under test was going through the Spray Method to determine the criteria of hydrophobicity class in Table 1 of the IEC TS 62073:2016. By using the percentage of total harmonic distortion data, the consistency results of the classification accuracy percentage have been successfully determined the two significant classes and the transition class between them. However, there is an existence of insignificant classes if the root means squared leakage current data is implemented. Therefore, by implementing the appropriate leakage current signal parameter data, the degradation classification could be determined accurately.","PeriodicalId":191189,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Conference on the Properties and Applications of Dielectric Materials (ICPADM)","volume":"239 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121983043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
