Abstract: In order to ensure the safe and stable operation of a power system, the performance evaluation of transformer windings after a short-circuit test can predict whether the windings are deformed in order to provide a useful reference for the operation and maintenance of the power sector. This paper proposes a method for evaluating the performance of transformer windings in order to improve the overall effectiveness of a winding evaluation. The index data obtained based on a short-circuit impedance method, frequency response method, and oscillation wave method are used in the algorithm proposed in this paper. First, the transformer winding performance evaluation index system is constructed. Second, the weight of each index is determined by analytic hierarchy process, and then the fuzzy comprehensive assessment method is introduced, and the fuzzy evaluation matrix is established, the evaluation results are calculated using the evaluation formula. Finally, the maximum membership principle is used to determine the performance level of the transformer winding on the evaluation results, and the evaluation results of the transformer winding state are obtained. The example shows that the evaluation level of the measured transformer winding performance can be obtained by this method as “good”. Compared with the traditional method, this method can simplify the evaluation while maintaining higher accuracy.
