“…In [16,17], vibration characteristics of GIS caused by electromagnetic, electrostatic forced parts, and operation of switchgear etc., in the normal mechanical state, have been studied, but it is un-involving the mechanical fault feature extraction and fault diagnosis in abnormal mechanical state. In [18][19][20][21], diagnostic techniques to detect abnormal contact defects occurring at different locations (e.g. extra-high voltage (EHV) switchgear, GIS bus connector, disconnector, and grounding knife brake) by measuring vibrations in enclosures of GIS have been proposed.…”
