Item A nonlinear regression-based approach to assess transformer insulation condition using dielectric response recorded for short duration /(IEEE, 2023-01-01) Mishra, DeepakAnalysis of polarization current data is generally done to assess power transformer insulation condition. Due to considerable measurement time and low magnitude, noise and other environmental factors often affect the recorded dielectric response data. The influence of these factors cannot be avoided during field measurement. Once the recorded data are affected by external factors, it becomes difficult to analyze the data. Available literature has reported some techniques to reduce the testing time. However, these reported methods are ineffective in addressing the practical issues experienced during field measurement. This present article proposes a nonlinear regression-based approach to reduce insulation response measurement time significantly. Data collected from various in situ transformers have been analyzed to test the effectiveness of the proposed method.Item Condition assessment of power transformer insulation using short-duration time-domain dielectric spectroscopy measurement data(IEEE, 2019-10-14) Mishra, Deepak; Baral, Arijit; Haque, Nasirul; ChakravortiUtilities prefer noninvasive methods for assessing the condition of power transformer insulation. Analysis of polarization-depolarization current (PDC) is one such popular method. One such analysis involves the estimation of trapped charge released from the interfacial region of oil-paper insulation. The literature shows that such charges can be reliably used for the diagnosis of transformer insulation. However, such analysis requires a complete profile of PDC. PDC measurement (an offline technique) takes a large amount of time (several hours) to complete. The magnitude of PDC data for a larger value of time is also sensitive to changes in environmental conditions and field noise as its magnitude is low. Hence, a reliable estimation of detrapped charge may require numerous PDC measurements. This situation is not convenient for utilities as it prolongs shut down time. In this article, a method has been proposed which is capable of estimating detrapping charge using PDC data measured for a short span of time. The proposed method is tested on data collected from several real-life in-service transformers.
