Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of partial discharge insulation detection technology, and specifically relates to a novel anti-interference ultra-high frequency partial discharge detection circuit. Background Technology

[0002] With industrial and urban development, society's demand for electricity is constantly increasing, and the power industry is continuously developing. The safe operation of power transmission and transformation networks has become a key focus of the industry. Insulation faults are common in GIS (Gas Insulated Switchgear) combined electrical equipment, and these faults often manifest as partial discharges. Partial discharges in power equipment severely affect the uniform distribution of the electric field, leading to electric field distortion, corrosion of insulating materials, and ultimately, localized breakdown. When partial discharges occur in the insulation structure, they are accompanied by electrical pulses, ultrasonic waves, electromagnetic radiation, light, chemical reactions, and localized heating.

[0003] When partial discharge occurs inside GIS (Gas Insulated Switchgear) electrical systems, the discharge time is brief, approximately 10ns to 100ns. The rise time is ps, resulting in a wide frequency band for the pulse signal generated by partial discharge. Therefore, the signal excited by partial discharge can be received by a high-frequency sensor, and the received signal can be analyzed to determine the insulation condition of the GIS electrical system. Existing GIS ultra-high frequency sensors are generally broadband. When performing partial discharge detection at GIS basin insulators, the broadband bandwidth of the sensors leads to a large amount of unwanted signals entering the system, reducing system sensitivity. During on-site testing, interference signals are isolated using shielding cloth, which affects the efficiency of live-line testing. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a novel anti-interference ultra-high frequency partial discharge detection circuit, including an antenna, a balun circuit, and a band-stop filter;

[0006] The antenna is used to receive ultra-high frequency electromagnetic wave signals generated by partial discharge, and the output terminal of the antenna is connected to the balun circuit. The output terminal of the balun circuit is connected to the band-stop filter. The output terminal of the band-stop filter integrates an SMA connector for outputting ultra-high frequency electromagnetic wave signals.

[0007] A further embodiment is that the antenna includes a first copper foil and a second copper foil disposed on a plate, with the first copper foil and the second copper foil symmetrically disposed on both sides of the plate.

The diameter of the semi-circular portion and the side length of the square portion are both 25mm. The thickness of the first and second copper foils is 1 / 1 ounce. A signal lead is provided at the top of the semi-circular portion for connection to the balun circuit.

[0010] A further embodiment is that the balun circuit and the band-stop filter are integrated on the substrate, and the balun circuit and the band-stop filter are located on the same side of the substrate as the first copper foil or the second copper foil.

[0017] This invention places the balun and band-stop filter together with the antenna, which can effectively receive and process partial discharge signals while suppressing external interference signals, thus achieving accurate detection of partial discharge in electrical equipment.

[0018] This invention symmetrically arranges two copper foils on both sides of a plate, and then places the balun circuit and band-stop filter on the same side of the plate along with one of the copper foils. This makes full use of space, reduces the size of the detection circuit, and can be used with partial discharge detection equipment from different manufacturers. It also effectively avoids interference, improves detection sensitivity, and thus enhances the efficiency of live-line detection. Attached Figure Description

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a novel anti-interference ultra-high frequency partial discharge detection circuit, including an antenna 1, a balun circuit 2, and a band-stop filter 3. The antenna 1 receives ultra-high frequency electromagnetic wave signals generated by partial discharge, and its output is connected to the balun circuit 2. The output of the balun circuit 2 is connected to the band-stop filter 3, converting the unbalanced signal received by the antenna 1 into a balanced signal, which helps reduce common-mode interference and improve signal transmission quality. The balun circuit 2 also plays a role in signal matching, ensuring impedance matching between the antenna 1 and subsequent circuits and reducing signal reflection. The band-stop filter 3 is used to suppress interference signals at specific frequencies, with a band-stop frequency range of 820MHz to 980MHz, and is a 5th-order Butterworth filter. For example, some fixed-frequency interferences in power systems (such as power frequency and its harmonics) can be effectively suppressed by the band-stop filter. By filtering out interference signals, the band-stop filter 3 can improve the purity of the partial discharge signal, making subsequent signal processing and analysis more accurate. An SMA connector 21 is integrated at the output of the band-stop filter 3 for outputting ultra-high frequency electromagnetic wave signals.

[0024] In this embodiment, the antenna 1 includes a first copper foil 4 and a second copper foil 5 disposed on a substrate, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the substrate. The substrate is a 45mm x 95mm Rogers RO4003C substrate. The first copper foil 4 and the second copper foil 5 have identical shapes, each including a semi-circular portion and a square portion, integrally formed. The diameter of the semi-circular portion and the side length of the square are both 25mm. The thickness of the first copper foil 4 and the second copper foil 5 is 1 / 1 ounce, and their area is 12.5 square meters. 2 π / 2 + 25 * 25 = 870.3125 mm 2 A signal lead is provided at the top of the semi-circular portion, which is connected to the balun circuit 2. The balun circuit 2 and the band-stop filter 3 are integrated on the board material, and the balun circuit 2 and the band-stop filter 3 are located on the same side of the board material as the first copper foil 4 or the second copper foil 5. This makes full use of space, reduces the size of the detection circuit, and can be used with partial discharge detection equipment from different manufacturers. It also effectively avoids interference, improves detection sensitivity, and thus improves the efficiency of live-line detection.

[0025] In this embodiment, the balun circuit 2 includes a balun comprising a first inductor 6, a second inductor 7, a first capacitor 8, and a second capacitor 9; the first inductor 6 and the first capacitor 8 are connected in series to form a first series branch, the second inductor 7 and the second capacitor 9 are connected in series to form a second series branch, and the first series branch and the second series branch are connected in parallel; a resistor 10 is connected between the first series branch and the second series branch for impedance matching; the input port of the balun circuit 2 is connected to the first copper foil 4 and the second copper foil 5, and the output port of the balun circuit 2 is connected to the input port of the band-stop filter. The band-stop filter 3 includes a third inductor 14 to a seventh inductor 20 and a third capacitor 11 to a seventh capacitor 18; wherein, the third capacitor 11 and the third inductor 14 are connected in series, the fourth capacitor 12 and the fourth inductor 15 are connected in series, the fifth capacitor 13 and the fifth inductor 16 are connected in series, the sixth capacitor 17 and the sixth inductor 19 are connected in parallel, and the seventh capacitor 18 and the seventh inductor 20 are connected in parallel, and the output port of the band-stop filter 3 is connected to an SMA connector 21 RF connector for connecting external devices.

[0026] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Antenna 1 is a symmetrical antenna. The antenna impedance composed of the first copper foil 4 and the second copper foil 5 is 220 ohms. The impedance is converted to 50 ohms through the balun circuit 2 for signal transmission. The electromagnetic wave signal received by antenna 1 has a rich frequency component, but some signals are invalid signals. Among them, the communication signal is the signal that the system needs to reject. This signal is filtered out by the band-stop filter 3. The design has an in-band loss of more than 40dB and an out-of-band loss of 1dB, which can effectively improve the detection efficiency. The data is processed at the input end, reducing the data processing pressure of the subsequent system.

Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments.
