Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of high-voltage electrical technology and automatic control equipment technology, in particular to a cable joint lead damage detection device and method based on radio frequency identification technology. BACKGROUND

[0002] At the high-voltage cable joint, the cable joint and the cable main body outer sheath are linked by lead lining technology. Influenced by factors such as cable self-gravity, underground settlement, cable lifting, etc., the cable lead lining often breaks. The broken lead lining leads to water entering the cable joint, the circulation of the cable outer sheath loop, and ultimately causes the cable joint to be damaged, the cable head to burst, and the people's life to be unprotected, resulting in a large economic loss.

[0003] Traditional cable joint lead breakage detection mainly includes eddy current flaw detection technology and X-ray technology. The eddy current flaw detection technology cannot achieve accurate detection because the contact distance between the eddy current flaw detection probe and the cable lead lining is large and changes greatly due to the irregular shape of the cable lead lining and the 5mm thick heat shrink tube. In addition, the eddy current flaw detection technology requires the probe to move constantly, and each corner around the lead lining needs to be detected without dead angles, which makes it difficult to achieve online detection.

[0004] X-ray technology has high detection cost and causes irreversible aging of the cable inner rubber structure during work, which shortens the service life of the cable and is not suitable for online detection.

[0005] Applicants have found that after the high-voltage cable armor and joint copper shell are linked by lead lining, a sealed metal cavity is formed, which can effectively shield electromagnetic wave signals. When the lead lining breaks, electromagnetic wave signals can penetrate the originally sealed cavity through diffraction. Based on this principle, the applicants have developed a cable joint lead damage detection technology based on radio frequency identification technology. At the same time, due to the high temperature of the molten lead used during cable lead lining, an outer sheath for protecting the electronic tag is designed to detect the damage of the cable joint lead lining part.
