In recent years, large-scale renewable energy access to substations has brought overload, harmonic, short circuit and other problems, which has led to an increase in the failure rate and shortening the service life of important power equipment such as transformers. Transformer is one of the key equipment in power system, and its operation status has an important impact on the safe and stable operation of power grid. In order to realize the real-time state evaluation of transformer, a real-time vibration signal detection method based on video is proposed in this paper. Firstly, YOLOv4 is used to detect the transformer, and then the pyramid Lucas-Kanade optical flow method and Otsu method are used to calculate the transformer vibration vector. Experimental results show that in the synthetic transformer vibration video, the transformer vibration vector can be calculated in real time and accurately by using the proposed algorithm, so as to realize the real-time reliable analysis of the transformer state.
