Sumario:A new signal-based strategy for stator winding interturn short-circuit fault detection and isolation in permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM) is proposed. The strategy is based on an analysis of the midpoint voltage of the phase windings. A PMSM model with partitioned stator windings including an interturn short-circuit fault is presented. Unlike the motor current signature analysis methods, the midpoint voltage measurement allows detecting an incipient stator fault even under external disturbances without false alarms. For PMSM generators used in variable-speed wind turbines, the random changes of wind produce fluctuations in the rotor speed. In this situation, conventional fault detection methods used for the steady-state condition may produce errors in the fault diagnosis. However, the proposed strategy is capable of rejecting the effects of the non-stationary speed conditions by resampling the voltage signals at fixed increments of the rotor angular position. Several experimental results in time and frequency-domain are presented for different speed conditions using a PMSM with modified stator winding.
