[0092] As shown in Figure 10aThe diagram shows an embodiment of the temperature and humidity sensing circuit: The temperature and humidity sensing circuit includes a chip HDC2010. The VDD pin of the HDC2010 chip is connected to a power supply, providing a voltage of 1.62 to 3.6V. The VDD pin is also connected to GND through a capacitor C56. The ADDR pin defines an address. A resistor R60 is connected in parallel between the VDD pin and the ADDR pin of the HDC2010 temperature and humidity digital sensor. The ADDR pin is also connected to GND through a resistor R61. The SDA pin and SCL pin are connected to the ports of the MCU circuit through pull-up resistors R68 and R69, respectively. The DRDY_INT pin is connected to the corresponding port of the MCU circuit. The GND pin is connected to GND. Furthermore, the temperature and humidity detection circuit is connected to the MCU circuit of the intelligent controller. The intelligent controller has a preset ambient temperature threshold, for example, an ambient temperature threshold of 40℃, which means the onboard temperature is 40℃. Taking a circuit breaker of model NA1-2000X-2000 as an example, the rated current In of the circuit breaker is 2000A. When the ambient temperature is below 40℃, the long-delay current protection value Ir in the protection parameters is 2000A. The MCU circuit obtains the ambient temperature parameter through the sampling signal of the temperature and humidity detection circuit, compares the ambient temperature parameter with the ambient temperature threshold to determine whether the ambient temperature is abnormal, and alarms are triggered through the HMI display module and communication module to prompt the user to manually adjust the long-delay current protection value Ir. Furthermore, if the long-delay current protection value Ir is not manually adjusted within a certain period of time, for example, within 5 to 60 minutes, the intelligent controller will adjust the long-delay current protection value Ir according to the derating factor corresponding to the current ambient temperature. For example, when the ambient temperature changes to 55℃, according to the derating factor corresponding to that ambient temperature, the long-delay current protection value Ir is 2000×0.9=1800A.
[0093] like Figure 10b The image shows one embodiment of the atmospheric pressure measurement circuit: the atmospheric pressure measurement circuit includes a BMP180M chip, and its communication method adopts I / O. 2The SDA pin and the SCL pin of the sensor are connected to the corresponding ports of the intelligent controller through pull-up resistors R7 and R8, respectively, in the I2C communication protocol. Further, the atmospheric pressure measurement circuit is connected to the MCU circuit of the intelligent controller, and a preset altitude threshold is provided in the intelligent controller, for example, the altitude threshold is 2000 meters. Taking a circuit breaker with a model of NA1-2000X-2000 as an example, the rated current In of the circuit breaker is 2000 A, and when the altitude is lower than 2000 meters, the long-time delay current protection value Ir in the protection parameter is 1000 A. The MCU circuit obtains the altitude parameter through the sampling signal of the atmospheric pressure measurement circuit, compares the altitude parameter with the altitude threshold to determine whether the operating altitude of the circuit breaker is abnormal, and alarms through the HMI display module and the communication module to prompt that the circuit breaker is in a non-safe working state. Further, if the long-time delay current protection value Ir is not manually adjusted within a certain time, for example, within 5-60 minutes, the intelligent controller adjusts the long-time delay current protection value Ir according to the derating coefficient corresponding to the current altitude parameter. For example, when the altitude becomes 3500 meters, the long-time delay current protection value Ir is adjusted to 2000*0.83=1660 A.
[0094] As shown in Figure 10c , it is an embodiment of the dust detection circuit: the dust detection circuit includes an LED light source H1, a photoresistor R6, and a heating resistor R4. The LED light source H1 and the photoresistor R6 are used to collect the scattered particle signals in the air, and the sampling airflow is driven by the heating resistor R4. During the sampling process, when the dust particles in the air increase, the LED light source H1 is blocked, the resistance of the photoresistor R6 decreases, and the AD sampling signal fed back to the intelligent controller also decreases, so that the intelligent controller obtains the corresponding dust concentration level according to the built-in parameters, and reminds the user to ventilate. Further, the photoresistor R6 has a capacitor C4 connected in parallel at both ends, one end of the photoresistor R6 is connected to the intelligent controller to feed back the sampling signal, the other end of the photoresistor R6 is connected to GND, and one end of the LED light source H1 is connected to the intelligent controller through a resistor R5, and the intelligent controller controls the LED light source H1 to emit light.
[0095] As shown in Figure 11 , the universal circuit breaker further includes a position monitoring module for detecting the working position of the circuit breaker body 1. The circuit breaker body 1 has three working positions, which are a connection position, a test position and a separation position arranged in sequence. Further, the position monitoring module is connected to the intelligent controller through RS485.
[0096] The position monitoring module can be realized by existing technologies, for example, the technical solution of Chinese patent CN211579947U can be used, which will not be described here.
[0097] As Figure 11 shown, the universal circuit breaker further comprises an accessory detection module, which comprises an under-voltage monitoring circuit, a split excitation monitoring circuit, a closing monitoring circuit and a motor monitoring circuit for detecting the under-voltage release, the split excitation release, the closing electromagnet and the energy storage motor of the universal circuit breaker respectively. Further, the accessory detection module is connected with the intelligent controller through RS485.
[0098] The accessory detection module can be realized by existing technologies, for example, the technical solution of Chinese patent CN201922215425.5, which will not be described here.
[0099] The intelligent controller calculates the contact wear rate of the universal circuit breaker by the following method:
[0100] η(n)=1 / [(In / I(n))^α*Le]
[0101] η=[η(1)+η(2)+…η(n)]
[0102] Wherein, η(n) is the single tripping wear rate, the minimum value is the inverse of mechanical life; η is the total contact wear rate; In is the rated current; I(n) is the tripping current; α is the coefficient, which is a constant; Le is the product electrical life, which is a constant.
[0103] The intelligent controller calculates the thermal aging rate of the universal circuit breaker by the following method:
[0104] R=1-(N-(I / 0.8In)^2*(W / 40)^2*D) / N
[0105] Wherein, R is the thermal aging rate of the universal circuit breaker; N is the design depreciation days; I is the daily average current; W is the operating environment temperature of the universal circuit breaker; D is the cumulative running days.
[0106] The intelligent controller calculates the health degree of the universal circuit breaker by the following method:
[0107] H=min[(1-R*100),(1-η*100)]
[0108] Wherein, H is the health degree of the universal circuit breaker; R is the thermal aging rate of the circuit breaker; η is the contact wear rate.
[0109] The following is an example of calculating the contact wear rate:
[0110] Assuming that the rated current of the universal circuit breaker is 1000A, the tripping current is 2000A, the coefficient a is 2, and the product electrical life Le is 10000;
[0111] The contact wear rate of one opening is:
[0112] η(1) = 1 / (((1000 / 2000)2) * 10000) = 0.04%
[0113] The contact wear rate of one opening is:
[0114] The total contact wear rate after two openings is: η = η(1) + η(2) = 0.08%
[0115] The following is a calculation example of the thermal aging rate and health degree:
[0116] Assume that the design depreciation day N is 5000 days, the daily average current I is 1000A, the rated current is 1000A, the environmental operating temperature is 40℃, and the cumulative operation is 1000 days.
[0117] R = 1-(5000-(1000 / 1600)^2*(40 / 40)^2*1000) / 5000 = 7.81%
[0118] H = 1-0.0781 = 92.19%
