  This paper presents an intelligent technique to fault diagnosis of power transformers dissolved and free gas analysis (DGA). Fuzzy Reasoning Spiking neural P systems (FRSN P systems) as a membrane computing with distributed parallel computing model is powerful and suitable graphical approach model in fuzzy diagnosis knowledge. In a sense this feature is required for establish
  ing
   the power transformers faults identifications and captur
  ing
   knowledge implicitly during the learning stage, using linguistic variables, membership functions with “low”, “medium”, and “high” descriptions for each gas signature, and inference rule base. Membership functions are used to translate judgments into numerical expression by fuzzy numbers. The performance method is analyzed in terms for four gas ratio (IEC 60599) signature as input data of FRSN P systems. Test case results evaluate that the proposals method for power transformer fault diagnosis can significantly improve the diagnosis accuracy power transformer.

Introduction</title><p>Today the electric networks become a large and more complex with big data receives from a lot of events in different sections, power transformer is one of the most important section in power systems. Any fault in the transformer can cause a severe outage, which therefore necessitates continuous monitoring and diagnostics of its operation. In this sense, any faults caused in power transformers will produce a lot of alarms, some of which are uncertain, incomplete and misinformed, thus, it is necessary to develop a good method to help dispatchers evaluate where the faults are and which transformer fail. However transformer fault diagnosis decision-making based on dissolved and free gas analysis (DGA) diagnostic methods may give conflict analysis results and complicate the final decision making by operators [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref1">1</xref>] .</p><p>In fact, intelligent fault diagnosis systems are necessary to deal with changes in typology of power network to fast diagnose the fault stat and location of power transformers faults [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref2">2</xref>] .</p><p>In recent years, artificial intelligence approaches have been proposed with high performance programs and in developing more smart diagnostic techniques for power transformers based on DGA methods, such as support vector machine [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref1">1</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref3">3</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref4">4</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref5">5</xref>] , fuzzy logic [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref6">6</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref7">7</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref8">8</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref9">9</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref10">10</xref>] , neural network [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref11">11</xref>] - [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref18">18</xref>] , grey clustering [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref19">19</xref>] [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref20">20</xref>] , wavelet networks [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref21">21</xref>] .</p><p>However, these approaches are using several techniques for detecting transformer faults based gases concentrations in the oil and DGA is recognized as the most informative method. This method involves sampling the oil and testing the sample to measure the concentration of the dissolved gases. The standards are associated with sampling, testing, and analyzing the results such as the standard IEC 60599 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref22">22</xref>] .</p><p>As a newly attractive research field of computer science, fuzzy reasoning spiking neural P systems (FRSN P systems), formally introduced by Hong Peng 2013 [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref23">23</xref>] , which are a class of SN P systems with distributed and parallel computing models.</p><p>In this paper, FRSN P systems are introduced as diagnostic technique to tackle the power transformer faults based on DGA, and can be viewed as a directed graph; reasoning steps and transmits pulses from input proposition neurons to the output proposition neurons under the control of firing/spiking mechanism of neurons [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref24">24</xref>] .</p><p>Furthermore, this method uses the IEC ratio gases as input signature to FRSN P systems diagnosis model to establish the fault reasoning results with confidence levels, based on confidence levels for different fault types of transformer can get decision which one faulty. In addition, fault diagnosis process is expressed by assume the initial parameters of FRSN P systems model with linguistic terms to give operators more accuracy to describe the degree of uncertainty fault information [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.71943-ref25">25</xref>] .</p><p>This paper is organized as follows. Section 2 provides the definitions of FRSN P systems. Section 3 presents power transformer DGA based on FRSN P systems and fault diagnosis model. Section 4 discusses the test results.
