Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of drones, in particular to a drone-based hydrophobic live test device for composite insulators of transmission lines that can be widely used in the electric power industry to detect the hydrophobicity of composite insulators being used on poles and towers. Background technique [0002] Insulators play two basic roles in overhead transmission lines, namely supporting wires and preventing current from returning to the ground. These two functions must be guaranteed. Insulators should not fail due to various electromechanical stresses caused by changes in the environment and electrical load conditions. Otherwise, the insulator will not have a significant effect, which will damage the service life and operating life of the entire line. Composite insulators are more and more widely used in power lines due to their good antifouling properties. Composite insulators are external insulation devices that require long...

Problems solved by technology

In order to reduce the process, the staff used a special insulation operating rod to test the hydrophobicity of the composite insulator after climbing the tower. The whole process required a lot of staff and was extremely labor-intensive.
