This paper presents a fault diagnosis technique for high-resistance connection (HRC) in a nine-phase flux-switching permanent-magnet (FSPM) machine based on zero-sequence voltage components (ZSVC), where the neutral-point connection mode is considered. A nine-phase FSPM machine topology is first introduced and no-load back electromotive force waveforms are analyzed. Moreover, the topologies of the nine-phase FSPM drive with different neutral-point connection modes are studied. Then, the mathematical model of a nine-phase FSPM machine with HRC is established with the consideration of the neutral-point connection mode and then the influence of the HRC on the ZSVC is analyzed based on the established model. It is shown that the HRC may be diagnosed by monitoring the change of the spectral contents of the ZSVC. Furthermore, this paper focuses on the situation of the nine-phase FSPM machine with one neutral point. In this case, to remove the influence of the FSPM machine operating point, an effective fault indicator is defined and used for HRC fault detection. Finally, the simulation and the experiment are carried out to validate the proposed method. Both the results show that the proposed method can be applied for the HRC fault diagnosis in a nine-phase FSPM machine. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
