Introduction

Powertransformersareoneofthemostimportantcomponentsinpowertransmissionanddistributionsystems.Theyarewidelyusedinvariousregionsandindustries,andhaveanimportantroleinensuringthesecurityandstabilityofpowersupply.However,duetolong-termoperationandenvironmentalfactors,powertransformersaresubjecttovarioustypesofdamagesandfailures.Theoilchromatographyoftransformersisawidelyusedmethodforpredictingpotentialfaultsandevaluatingtheoperationalconditionsoftransformers.Byanalyzingthesubstancesinthetransformeroil,theearlywarningofpotentialrisksoftransformerfaultscanbeprovided.

Methods

Thisstudyisbasedona220kVtransformer.Wecollectedfouroilsamplesfromdifferentlocationsofthetransformerandconductedoilchromatographyanalysis.Theoilchromatographyanalysiswascarriedoutbyusingthegaschromatography-massspectrometry(GC-MS)method.ThechromatographicdatawasanalyzedandprocessedbyusingsoftwaretoolssuchasMATLABandExcel.Basedontheanalysis,thecontentandtypesoftheabnormalsubstancesintheoilsamplesweredetermined,andthepotentialcausesoftheabnormalsubstanceswerediscussed.Wealsoassessedthepotentialrisksoftransformerfaultsandproposedcorrespondingmeasures.

Results

Fourtypesofsubstanceswereidentifiedintheoilsamples:benzenederivatives,alkanes,aldehydes,andketones.ThecontentsofthesubstancesintheoilsamplesareshowninTable1.

Thepotentialcausesoftheabnormalsubstancesaretheinsulationdegradationofthetransformer,theoilaging,andtheexternalcontaminationoftheoil.Basedonthecontentandtypesoftheabnormalsubstances,weconcludedthattheinsulationdegradationofthetransformerwasthemainpotentialcauseoftheabnormalsubstances.

Thepotentialrisksofthetransformerfaultswereevaluatedbyanalyzingtheimpactsoftheabnormalsubstancesonthetransformerperformance.Theimpactsoftheabnormalsubstancesonthetransformerinsulationandcoolingsystemwereconsidered.Theresultsshowedthattherisksofthetransformerfaultswerehigh,andthepotentialconsequenceswereserious.Therefore,immediatemeasureswereneededtomaintainandprotectthetransformerequipment.
