Diagnosing Disk-Space Variation in Distribution Power Transformer Windings Using Group Method of Data Handling Artificial Neural Networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Monitoring centers in the smart grid exchange the collected data by sensors and smart meters to monitor the current conditions and performance of electric power components. Distribution Power Transformers (DPTs) have a key role in maintaining the integrity of power flow in the smart grid. Online monitoring of DPTs to detect possible faults can potentially increase the reliability of modern power systems. Mechanical defects of DPTs are the major issues in their proper operation that must be detected in their early stage of occurrence. One of the most effective solutions for diagnosing mechanical defects in DPTs is Frequency Response Analysis (FRA). In this study, an appropriate condition monitoring scheme for DPTs is developed to identify even minor winding defects. Disk-Space Variation (DSV), a common DPT windings fault, is applied to the 20 kV-winding of a 1.6 MVA DPT in various locations and with different severity. Their corresponding frequency responses are then computed, and all four components of the frequency responses, i.e., amplitude, argument, and real and imaginary parts, are evaluated. Different data-driven-based indices are implemented to extract appropriate feature vectors in the preprocessing stage. Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) Artificial Neural Networks is proposed to assist monitoring centers in interpreting FRA signatures and identifying DPT defects at primary stages. GMDH has a data-dependent structure, which gives high flexibility to modeling nonlinear characteristics of FRA test results with different data sizes. It is demonstrated that the proposed approach is capable of accurately determining the fault location and fault severity. The proposed Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based approach is used to extract essential features from frequency response traces in order to detect the position and degree of Disk-Space Variation (DSV) in the DPT windings. The experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed methods in determining the severity and location of DSV defects.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
