Abstract Three-phase voltage-source inverters fed induction motor with space-vector controlled scheme are widely used in industrial applications. The suffered failures will degrade the system performance with output torque ripple and harmonic currents. In this paper, a novel diagnosis method is proposed to detect and locate the insulated gate bipolar translator open-circuit fault. Discrete wavelet transform is used as a pre-treatment technique for three-phase output currents, the approximate coefficients are applied to obtain energy vectors. Euclidean distance between every two of the energy vectors are calculated for measuring the current similarity to diagnose fault. When IGBTs occur open-circuit fault, the values of Euclidean distance will be smaller than that under normal conditions, then faults can be detected. Faults can also be located according to extracted features. Simulation and experimental results show high efficiency and merits of the proposed method.
