description This paper proposes a power switch open-circuit (OC) fault diagnosis method for a motor drive inverter system. This method utilizes adjacent trend lines to extract fault features from the current vector trajectory, enabling rapid fault diagnosis and localization. Firstly, the current vector trajectory is obtained by applying the Clark transformation to the three-phase currents, and trend line slopes are calculated using equidistant current signal nodes. Subsequently, the method determines fault by calculating changes in adjacent trend line slopes and quickly locates the faulty power switch by considering the average slope of adjacent trend lines and the beta-axis current direction in the alpha–beta coordinate system. Accurate OC fault localization can be achieved with just a few trend line data points calculated in each current cycle, reducing the extra hardware and computational burden. This method is not only suitable for load variations but also applicable to the diagnosis of both single-switch and multiple-switch faults. Finally, simulation and experimental results validate the effectiveness and robustness of the method.
