  • 仅需健康数据训练,通过无监督方法检测故障并分类异常
  • 在无故障标签情况下实现故障诊断,准确识别老化或故障组件
  • 适合电力系统运维人员,提升高压设备在线监测可靠性

商用高压断路器(CB)状态监测依赖气体压力等可观测参数与预设阈值,但这些参数仅覆盖部分故障机制,且通常需断电后才能监测。为实现在役状态下在线监测,需采用非侵入式测量技术,如振动或声学信号。现有研究多基于有监督方法,依赖实验室中人为引入的故障标签,但在实际场景中故障标签不可得。本文提出一种基于振动和声学信号的新型无监督故障检测与分割框架,可识别运行状态偏离正常的情况,并结合可解释人工智能(XAI)对检测到的故障进行诊断分析。主要贡献包括:(1) 提出集成无监督故障检测与分割框架,仅需健康数据训练即可识别故障并聚类不同故障类型;(2) 基于无监督可解释性方法提供故障诊断指引,帮助领域专家判断老化或故障部件,无需真实故障标签。实验基于高压试验台采集的健康与人工故障数据集验证了该方法的有效性,有助于提升断路器系统运行可靠性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Commercial high-voltage circuit breaker (CB) condition monitoring systems rely on directly observable physical parameters such as gas filling pressure with pre-defined thresholds. While these parameters are crucial, they only cover a small subset of malfunctioning mechanisms and usually can be monitored only if the CB is disconnected from the grid. To facilitate online condition monitoring while CBs remain connected, non-intrusive measurement techniques such as vibration or acoustic signals are necessary. Currently, CB condition monitoring studies using these signals typically utilize supervised methods for fault diagnostics, where ground-truth fault types are known due to artificially introduced faults in laboratory settings. This supervised approach is however not feasible in real-world applications, where fault labels are unavailable. In this work, we propose a novel unsupervised fault detection and segmentation framework for CBs based on vibration and acoustic signals. This framework can detect deviations from the healthy state. The explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) approach is applied to the detected faults for fault diagnostics. The specific contributions are: (1) we propose an integrated unsupervised fault detection and segmentation framework that is capable of detecting faults and clustering different faults with only healthy data required during training (2) we provide an unsupervised explainability-guided fault diagnostics approach using XAI to offer domain experts potential indications of the aged or faulty components, achieving fault diagnostics without the prerequisite of ground-truth fault labels. These contributions are validated using an experimental dataset from a high-voltage CB under healthy and artificially introduced fault conditions, contributing to more reliable CB system operation.
