Abstract
The aim of this paper is to explore new approaches of monitoring, diagnosis, condition evaluation, and possibility of extending the life of transformers. Research, emphasizing to experimental work, is conducted on a 1.5 KVA single-phase transformer to measure the internal temperature of the primary and secondary winding, using reliable instruments. Special consideration is given to the convenience in the acquisition and management of experimental data, so that the proposed monitoring system can be exploited for all kinds of thermal tests and various loading conditions. The transformer under study is designed and constructed from scratch, according to particular technical specifications. Having completed the transformer construction with the temperature sensors linked in each coil, our aim is to apply various types of loads and record the temperature variation inside the transformer. A process of acquisition and processing of data related to various parameters of transformers is developed so as to predict the behavior and prevent the failure of a transformer.
