In a previous study, the parameters that were used in their equations or algorithms have different weights. The probability of failure refers to the health index of an asset, while the failure consequence evaluates and defines the consequences of a failure event. The risk index is a function of the probability of failure and the consequences of failure. The risk of an asset is represented by the risk index. Īccording to, the risk is defined as the “effect of the uncertainty in the objectives,” so risk management of the assets has the purpose to evaluate, create and protect the correct operation of assets throughout the lifetime. To perform lifetime management of the transformers, it is necessary to have all the possible data throughout the lifetime of the transformer, which can be obtained through condition-based maintenance and through online continuous monitoring technologies. In predictive maintenance strategies, the lifetime management of high-voltage substation equipment is pursued, with the aim to manage the risks of the assets of a substation. This review shows the differences between the main existing DGA monitors and aims to help in the selection of the most suitable DGA monitoring approach according to the needs of each case. This study presents a review of the main DGA monitors, single- or multi-gas, their most important specifications, accuracy, repeatability and measurement range, the types of installation, valve or closed loop, and number of analogue inputs and outputs. Although most of the DGA continues to be done in the laboratory, the trend is online DGA monitoring, since it allows for detection or diagnosis of the faults throughout the life of the power transformers. The parameter that currently allows for simple online monitoring in an energized transformer is the DGA. The parameters that are most used to assess the health status of power transformers are dissolved gas analysis (DGA), oil quality analysis (OQA) and content of furfuraldehydes (FFA) in oil. The reliability in the operation of electric power transmission and distribution is due to the correct operation and maintenance of power transformers. Power transformers are the most important assets of electric power substations.
