A Generic Waveform Abnormality Detection Method for Utility Equipment Condition Monitoring
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In recent years, power quality (PQ) disturbance data are increasingly applied to extract useful information about the condition of power systems, such as monitoring incipient equipment failures. A prerequisite for such applications is the ability for a PQ monitor to detect abnormal waveforms. In response to this need, a generic method for waveform abnormality detection is proposed in this paper. The proposed method has two unique features. First, abnormalities are detected by comparing the statistical distributions of waveform variations with and without disturbances. Kullback-Leibler divergence (KLD) is used to assess the difference of the distributions. An abnormality exists if the KLD is larger than a threshold. Second, current waveforms are used for detection since they are more sensitive to equipment conditions. The difficulty to set a proper threshold due to large variations of current values is overcome through the adoption of KLD as the distance measure and a systematic threshold selection scheme. The scheme maximizes the detection probability for a given false alarm probability. Field-measured data and simulated data are applied to verify the effectiveness of the method.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
