Dissolved gas analysis (DGA) approach is extensively applied to detect incipient faults of power transformers. This paper presents a novel DGA method for power transformer incipient fault diagnosis based on integrated adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST). Four out of seven common conventional methods which are studied and compared for better consistency and accuracy, are used to develop new ANFIS based fault diagnosis models. To promote fault diagnostic performance further and make fault decision process more reliable and reasonable, an improved DST is introduced to integrate outputs of each ANFIS based model, and to provide comprehensive and convincing fault diagnosis results. The fault diagnosis capability of the proposed method is validated by a reported fault dataset and 10-fold cross validation experiment. The performance of the proposed method is compared with conventional approaches and ANFIS based models which demonstrate that the proposed method is superior to other methods and is more effective and stable for power transformer fault diagnosis with high accuracy and consistency.
