Abstract:

— Thermal imaging technique is a very convenient, versatile and non-contact method which has been used for fault condition diagnosis of electrical equipment. The fault condition diagnosis is composed with data acquisition, data pre-processing, data analysis and decision making. Some important features contain in thermal image can be extracted for equipment condition monitoring and fault diagnosis. This paper attempts to extract some important features from the zinc oxide (ZnO) surge arrester using first order statistical histogram extraction to classify the fault condition using neural network. The experimental work was carried out to capture thermal image of 120 kV rated ZnO surge arrester. The thermal images were segmented and plotted histogram using dedicated software. Some features such as the maximum, minimum, mean, standard deviation, and variance were extracted using the extraction method, classification of aging was carried out using the neural network based on the leakage current values. The health states consist of normal, defection and faulty. The results show that the thermal image features extracted using the extraction method can be used to classify the fault condition of the ZnO surge arresters
