Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to a generator partial discharge pattern recognition method based on a threshold spectrum and a light neural network and belongs to the field of generator stator bar partial discharge online monitoring. BACKGROUND
[0002] One of the main threats to the safe operation of a generator comes from the insulation system. According to the statistics of CIGRE Working Group WG A3.06, insulation faults account for about 56% of the faults of a hydro-generator, and stator insulation faults account for nearly two-thirds of the insulation faults. Therefore, the stator insulation performance is directly related to the operation reliability and service life of the unit. Partial discharge (PRPD, referred to as partial discharge) is both a cause and a manifestation of insulation degradation and is one of the important parameters of generator state monitoring. Different types of generator partial discharge have different insulation damage mechanisms and destructive effects. Therefore, it is of great significance to effectively identify and determine the partial discharge. With the increasing demand for urban electricity, the proportion of high-voltage cables used in urban power transmission and distribution is increasing year by year, and the operation state of the high-voltage cable directly affects the stability of the entire power transmission and distribution network.
