Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of substation equipment maintenance, and specifically relates to a general-purpose current loop short-circuiting tool for substations, which is specifically used to short-circuit the secondary current loop of current transformers during the operation of primary equipment and the maintenance of secondary equipment in substations, so as to prevent relay protection accidents or equipment damage caused by the open circuit of the secondary current loop of operating current transformers. Background Art
[0002] Article 13.13 of the "Regulations on Electric Power Safety Work (Substation Part)" stipulates: a) It is prohibited to open the secondary side of a current transformer. When working on an operating current loop, the secondary current loop needs to be short-circuited with a special tool, and it is strictly prohibited to short-circuit the current loop by winding wires to prevent the secondary side of the operating current transformer from opening.
[0003] Common tools for short-circuiting the secondary side of current transformers on-site include: terminal shorting links, four-way plugs, wire crimping, and test leads and other short-circuiting tools. Terminal shorting links and four-way plug tools can reliably short-circuit the secondary side of current transformers. However, their disadvantage is that they cannot short-circuit non-continuous arranged current loops. Wire crimping is flexible in on-site operation and can short-circuit current loops of various layout types, but the on-site production of short-circuiting tools does not meet the requirements of flexibility, reliability, and time-saving. At the same time, on-site operators need to have very high practical skills. The flexibility of test leads is similar to that of wire crimping, but there is a risk that the plug-in is unreliable and easy to fall off.
[0004] Currently, there are 26 750 kV AC substations, 1 ±800 kV converter station, and 1 ±1100 kV converter station in Xinjiang Autonomous Region. According to Article 3.8 of the "Regulations on the Operation and Management of Microcomputer Relay Protection Devices DL / T 587-2007": The service life of microcomputer relay protection devices is generally not less than 12 years. For microcomputer relay protection devices with unstable operation and harsh working environments, the service life can be appropriately shortened according to the operation situation. Equipment operation and maintenance units gradually conduct periodic protection replacement for the put-into-operation equipment according to the service life of microcomputer relay protection devices. Coupled with the defect elimination work of public devices such as measurement and control, PMU, and stability control, it is inevitable to involve the work of short-circuiting operating current loops. Without a reliable and efficient current loop short-circuiting tool, first, it is easy to cause the open circuit of the operating current loop, generating a very high voltage on the secondary side of the current transformer, seriously threatening the safety of personnel and equipment; second, the on-site operators making short-circuiting tools to seal the current take up a lot of manpower and consume a lot of time, seriously hindering the progress of the protection replacement work and resulting in a long operation time for a single set of microcomputer relay protection devices. Third, the temporary short-circuiting tool has no obvious warning sign, which is easy to cause personnel to mistakenly restore the current short-circuiting tool, resulting in the open circuit of the current loop and mis-tripping of the operating equipment, seriously affecting the long-term stable operation of power equipment.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a general-purpose current loop short-circuiting tool for substations. Summary of the Invention
