ABSTRACT:
A method for transformer testing includes receiving a failing test result of a transformer, the test result being determined from a test taken during transformer manufacture, determining, via a knowledge-based system, a predicted root cause of the failure based on the test result and a knowledge base of transformer information, and determining, via the knowledge-based system, a suggested course of action for the failure based on the test result and the knowledge base of transformer information.
