Error state prediction method for electronic voltage transformer based on empirical mode decomposition and auto-regressive moving average

Abstract Electronic voltage transformers have been used in the power system in conjunction with the development of power grid intelligence due to their good insulation structure, economy, volume, and other advantages. However, in its long-term operation, the phenomena of error overshooting and unstable operation will inevitably occur, and the existing periodic off-line testing methods require a high calibration cycle, which is difficult to achieve. To solve these problems, an error state prediction method based on empirical mode decomposition and autoregressive moving average model is proposed. Firstly, according to the physical correlation between the secondary output signal and the error, the output signal is quantified as a statistic Q by the method of principal component analysis, and then the statistic is used as the prediction object to establish a prediction model for predicting the operating state of the electronic voltage transformer. The simulation results show that the model can accurately predict the trend of the transformer error, which meets the prediction requirements.
