Abstract
The issues of low accuracy, poor generality, high cost of transformer fault early warning, and the subjective nature of empirical judgments made by field maintenance personnel are difficult to solve with the traditional measurement methods used during the development of the transformer. To construct a transformer fault early warning analysis, this study recommends a data-fusion-based decision tree approach for merging electrical quantity signals with a non-electrical amount of vibration signals. By merging a decision tree inference with actual operation data, a clustering center, and an early warning model, this method creates a transformer fault early warning model with self-learning ability and adaptive capabilities. After reasonable verification, the method becomes more universal and interpretable, and it can successfully conduct an early warning of transformer faults.
