Abstract
Summary form only given as follows. The transfer function concept is well known as an additional method of evaluating the impulse test of power transformers in the test laboratory. Another application for this method is monitoring of power transformers in service. According to the method of how to measure transient signals for the calculation of transfer functions, two kinds of monitoring can be distinguished: off-line and on-line monitoring. Both kinds of monitoring as well as their influencing factors are discussed with on-site measurements on power transformers in service.

Transformer tank vibration modeling as a method of detecting winding deformations-part I: theoretical foundation

TL;DR: In this article, a model developed for a transformer monitoring system to estimate transformer tank vibration is presented, which takes into account the main physical phenomena generating vibrations in the different transformer elements and how these vibrations are superposed and transmitted to the tank.

Procedures for detecting winding displacements in power transformers by the transfer function method

TL;DR: In this article, three different ways of using the transfer function method for detecting mechanical winding displacements in power transformers are investigated, and the most reliable approach is time-based comparison, which requires finger print data from a previous measurement.

Transformer winding faults classification based on transfer function analysis by support vector machine

TL;DR: In this paper, a support vector machine (SVM) is used for transformer winding fault classification using transfer function (TF) analysis and two different features extracted from the measured TFs are then used as the inputs to SVM classifier for fault classification.

Impulse testing of power transformers using the transfer function method

TL;DR: In this article, the transfer function of a transformer winding is deconvoluted in the frequency domain from the digitally recorded neutral current and high voltage applied during impulse tests, and the integrity of the winding insulation is determined by comparing the transferred function obtained at full and reduced test voltage.

Measurement of switching transients in 735 kV substations and assessment of their severity for transformer insulation

TL;DR: In this paper, an automatic measuring system that digitally records transients generated by EHV-transmission-system switching operations and lightning strokes has been developed, and the severity of these transients was assessed by comparing them with test voltages applied to the transformers during acceptance tests.
