Abstract

The traditional DGA (Dissolved Gas Analysis) diagnosis method does not consider the dependence between fault characteristic gases and uses the relationship between gas ratio coding and fault type to make the decision. As a tool of the dependence mechanism between variables, a copula function can effectively analyze the correlation between variables when it cannot determine whether the linear correlation coefficient can correctly measure the correlation between variable relationships. In this paper, the edge variable of a copula function is selected from the fault characteristic gas of a transformer, and the distribution type of the edge variable is fitted at the same time. Then, Bayesian estimation with the Gaussian residual likelihood function is used to fit the parameters of a copula function and a copula function is selected to describe the optimal dependence of the fault characteristic gas of transformer. The relationship between a copula function and the state of transformer is studied. The results show that the copula function boundary with hydrocarbon gas as edge variable can divide the transformer as healthy or defective state. When the cumulative distribution probability (CDF) value of the dissolved gas in the oil in the copula function is close to 0.8, the fluctuation of its gas concentration leads to a sharp change in the probability. Therefore, the analysis of dissolved gas in oil based on a copula function can be used as a powerful technical solution for oil-immersed power transformer fault diagnosis.
