Power equipment switchgear partial discharge sensor - real-time response

At the moment when the construction of the energy Internet is accelerating, the safe and stable operation of the power system is directly related to the lifeline of the national economy. With the continuous expansion of the power grid scale and the prominent problem of equipment aging, traditional operation and maintenance models are facing severe challenges. The device health management solution based on IoT technology is reshaping the operation and maintenance ecology of the power industry, and building a three-dimensional protection network for the safe operation of the power grid.

1、 Technological evolution drives the transformation of operation and maintenance models

In modern power grids, core equipment such as transformers, switchgear, and power cables are subjected to multiple electrical, thermal, and mechanical stresses for a long time. The abnormal discharge phenomenon caused by the gradual deterioration of their insulation systems has become the main cause threatening equipment reliability. Traditional manual inspection faces bottlenecks such as multiple blind spots in detection, poor data timeliness, and high dependence on expert experience, making it difficult to meet the demand for holographic perception of equipment status in smart grids.

The new generation of device health management system breaks through the traditional monitoring framework and builds a'end-side-pipe-cloud'Collaborative architecture. The intelligent sensing terminal deployed in the front-end integrates multiple physical field coupled sensors, which can synchronously collect multi-dimensional signals such as electricity, sound, and heat, and extract feature quantities in situ through embedded algorithms. The edge computing unit completes data cleaning and primary diagnosis, and only transmits effective information to the cloud platform, significantly reducing communication bandwidth requirements. The cloud based big data center utilizes deep learning algorithms to establish a device health assessment model, achieving intelligent identification and trend prediction of defects.
