Abstract :
Transformers are required to demonstrate the ability to withstand short circuit currents. Over currents due to short circuit can cause winding deformation. A new method of testing and analyzing winding deformation online without untanking is presented in this paper. A study of alternate excitations to detect winding deformation is made. A comparison of Fourier transform and Wigner-Ville distribution methods of analysis is carried out
