GIS Disconnector Mechanism Jamming Fault Diagnosis Method Based on Sideband Information Enhancement in Power System

This study addresses the need for improved fault diagnosis methods for GIS disconnector mechanisms, specifically targeting jamming faults, which are difficult to detect using conventional approaches. Existing methods often fail to accurately diagnose these faults due to limitations in handling signal noise and nonlinearity. To overcome these challenges, we propose a novel method that combines variational mode decomposition (VMD) and bispectral analysis to extract fault-related features from vibration signals. The effectiveness of this approach is validated using both real-world data from GIS disconnector units in substations and simulated fault data in laboratory conditions. The results show that our method significantly improves fault classification accuracy, particularly for jamming faults, providing a robust solution for real-time monitoring and diagnosis. This work contributes to both the theoretical understanding of GIS disconnector fault mechanisms and practical applications in intelligent power system maintenance.
