Given the inadequacies in the management of reactive power compensation equipment in distribution networks and insufficient power data mining, existing studies pay little attention to asymmetric reactive power compensation equipment and face pain points such as difficult quantification of nonlinear relationships and challenging evaluation of mechanical switches. First, this paper proposes a data mining-based diagnostic method for the operating status of asymmetric reactive power compensation equipment: it preprocesses data via singular value decomposition and matrix approximation. Second, it classifies load types with K-means clustering, defines “health degree” by introducing mutual information and a reliability coefficient, constructs dual switching criteria, and defines the switching qualification rate. Third, the TOPSIS method is employed for dual-index comprehensive evaluation, and equipment status levels are classified with statistical analysis. Finally, the case analysis demonstrates that the proposed method is accurate, applicable, and easy to implement, which can serve as a basis for equipment troubleshooting and maintenance, thereby filling the relevant research gap.
