New Fuzzy Logic Model Boosts Transformer Fault Diagnosis Accuracy

Researchers have developed an enhanced model combining Fuzzy Logic with the IEEE Key Gas Method (FL-KGM) to improve the accuracy of diagnosing faults in power transformers through dissolved gas analysis. This new approach refines membership functions, optimizes fuzzy rule sets, and separates CO and CO2 to address inconsistencies found in the traditional IEEE Key Gas Method. Real-world data validation shows FL-KGM achieves up to 98.6% accuracy, significantly outperforming existing methods and offering potential for advanced transformer monitoring and predictive maintenance.
