Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems are widely utilized in power equipment for condition monitoring. For the collected data, there generally exists a problem-missing data of different types and patterns. This leads to the poor quality and utilization difficulties of the collected data. To address this problem, this paper customizes methodology that combines an asymmetric denoising autoencoder (ADAE) and moving average filter (MAF) to perform accurate missing data imputation. First, convolution and gated recurrent unit (GRU) are applied to the encoder of the ADAE, while the decoder still utilizes the fully connected layers to form an asymmetric network structure. The ADAE extracts the local periodic and temporal features from monitoring data and then decodes the features to realize the imputation of the multi-type missing. On this basis, according to the continuity of power data in the time domain, the MAF is utilized to fuse the prior knowledge of the neighborhood of missing data to secondarily optimize the imputed data. Case studies reveal that the developed method achieves greater accuracy compared to existing models. This paper adopts experiments under different scenarios to justify that the MAF-ADAE method applies to actual power equipment monitoring data imputation.
