Abstract
In the early faults of transformer windings, there are obvious variation characteristics of the spatial leakage magnetic field. Taking the leakage magnetic field as the fault characteristic quantity can establish an active defense system for transformer defects and faults, thereby increasing the service life of the equipment. However, the installation method of the optical fiber leakage magnetic field sensor, the principle of leakage magnetic field protection, the research and development of the protection device, and the dynamic model testing of the protection device are all key links in realizing the leakage magnetic field monitoring and active defense system. This paper first analyzes the symmetry of the winding leakage magnetic field, proposes invasive and non-invasive installation methods for optical fiber sensors based on different application scenarios, presents the principle of leakage magnetic field differential protection, and develops a protection device. The feasibility of the protection scheme proposed in this paper was verified through dynamic model experiments, and the early fault active defense system was put into actual on-site operation.
