Luminous connections are highly concealed and the temperature can be as high as 1000 to 1500°C. The high temperature of luminous connections will burn the contact elements and eventually cause connection failure. It will also ignite surrounding non-flame retardant materials, causing a chain reaction that can lead to large-scale fires or even explosions, posing a serious threat to the safe operation of equipment.

[0019] To facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present invention, further explanation will be given below by taking specific embodiments as examples in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, and each of the accompanying drawings does not constitute a limitation on the embodiments of the present invention.
[0020] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the luminous connection detection method of the low-voltage AC electrical line includes the following steps: Step 1, extracting a current signal of a low voltage AC electrical line; Step 2, performing discrete wavelet analysis on the current signal, extracting the modulus maximum of the d5 frequency band signal after 5-layer wavelet decomposition for determination, dividing the modulus maximum by the current effective value for load normalization, and when the normalized value is greater than the first threshold, executing step 3, when the normalized value is less than or equal to the first threshold, it is considered that no light-emitting connection is generated, and returning to step 1; Step 3, simultaneously select a time window to perform a fast Fourier transform on the current signal, obtain a current spectrum amplitude distribution diagram, integrate the current spectrum amplitude value and divide it by the integral value of the current effective value for normalization, compare the normalized value with the second threshold, if the normalized value is less than or equal to the second threshold, it is considered that no luminous connection is generated, and return to step 1, if the normalized value is greater than the second threshold, a luminous connection is generated to determine that a fault has occurred. In a preferred embodiment of the luminous connection detection method for a low-voltage AC electrical line, in step 2, the first threshold is 0.0492.
[0021] In a preferred implementation of the luminous connection detection method for a low-voltage AC electrical circuit, in step 3, a fast Fourier transform is performed on the current signal using a 400 ms sliding time window to obtain the current spectrum amplitude distribution.
[0022] In a preferred implementation of the luminous connection detection method for a low-voltage AC electrical circuit, in step 3, the spectrum integration of the 100-1000 Hz characteristic frequency band signal is selected to perform fault judgment on the current signal.
[0023] In a preferred implementation of the method for detecting luminous connection of a low-voltage AC electrical circuit, the second threshold is 0.0099.
[0024] In a preferred implementation of the luminous connection detection method for a low-voltage AC electrical circuit, step 1 is to extract a current signal of the low-voltage AC electrical circuit using a current sensor at a sampling rate of 625kHz.
[0025] In a preferred implementation of the method for detecting luminous connection of a low-voltage AC electrical line, in step 2, the normalized value is at least 1.3 times the first threshold value.
[0026] In a preferred implementation of the luminous connection detection method for a low-voltage AC electrical circuit, the low-voltage AC electrical circuit is an AC electrical circuit with a voltage less than 1 kV.
[0027] In one embodiment, reference Figure 1 , a luminous connection detection method for a low voltage AC electrical line comprises the following steps: The current waveform of the luminous connection branch is detected in real time, and a 5-layer discrete wavelet transform is performed on the luminous connection current signal. The modulus maximum of the d5 band signal is selected for judgment, and the modulus maximum is divided by the effective value of the current for load normalization. When the normalized value is greater than the threshold value of 0.049, it can be used as a criterion for judging the occurrence of a luminous connection.
[0028] The current signal is fast Fourier transformed using a 400ms sliding time window to obtain the spectrum amplitude distribution. The spectrum integral of the 100-1000Hz characteristic frequency band signal is selected to determine the signal fault. The integral value is normalized by dividing the current effective value. If the integral value is greater than the set second threshold value of 0.903, it can be used as a criterion. When the above two criteria are met at the same time, it is determined that the light connection occurs. Example 1
[0029] The current sensor is used to measure the luminous connection current at a sampling rate of 625kHz. When a luminous connection occurs in the line, a 0.4s time window is used to perform FFT transformation on the current. The distribution of the current spectrum 0-2000Hz for luminous connection failure and normal situation is shown in the following figure: Figure 2 It is found that the luminous connection current is significantly greater than that without abnormality in 100-1000Hz. The amplitudes of the two frequency bands are integrated, and the results are shown in Table 1. The spectrum integral value is normalized for load processing. It can be seen that there is a significant difference before and after the fault, and it can be clearly distinguished according to the first threshold, which can be used as a criterion for luminous connection fault.
[0030] Table 1 Spectrum integration before and after the fault Before the failure After the failure 3.2850A*Hz 6.6440 A*Hz 0.0066 (normalized) 0.0134 (normalized) The 5-layer wavelet transform is performed on the light-emitting connection current signal. The maximum value distribution of the modulus of the d5 frequency band signal before and after the fault is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the modulus maximum value of the d5 frequency band signal is taken to determine the signal fault. The maximum value of the fault is 1.3 times that before the fault. It can be clearly distinguished according to the second threshold value and can be used as a criterion for the light connection fault.
[0031] Table 2 Wavelet modulus maximum in d5 band before and after fault Before the failure After a failure 0.1902A 0.2421A 0.0432 (normalized) 0.0550 (normalized) When wavelet transform and spectrum integration are used together to judge the fault, the method outputs the final result that a luminous connection fault occurs.
[0032] It should be noted that the method for obtaining the first threshold and the second threshold is as follows: After normalizing the current effective value of the 5 groups of light-emitting connection conditions and the maximum value of the signal modulus under normal conditions, the corresponding normalized values of the following 5 normal conditions are obtained respectively: a 11 =0.0061,a 12 =0.0067,a 13 =0.0064, a 14 =0.0066, a 15 =0.0065, add them up and calculate the average value a 1i =0.0065; at the same time, the normalized values of the five luminous connection conditions are obtained: b 11 =0.0138,b 12 =0.0130,b 13 =0.0132, b 14 =0.0135, b 15 =0.0134, add them up and calculate the average value b 1i=0.0134. Therefore, we can take (0.0065+0.0134) / 2=0.0099 as the specific value of a certain threshold and use this average value as the value of the first threshold; After normalizing the signals of the five groups of light-emitting connection conditions and the normal conditions, the corresponding normalized values of the following five normal conditions are obtained respectively: a 21 =0.0430,a 22 =0.0429,a 23 =0.0433, a 24 =0.0435, a 25 =0.0432, add them up and calculate the average value a 2i =0.0432; meanwhile, the normalized values of 5 luminous connection conditions are obtained: b 21 =0.0555, b22 =0.0551,b 23 =0.0553, b 24 =0.0549, b 25 =0.0548, add them up and calculate the average value b 2i =0.0551. Therefore, we can take (0.0065+0.0134) / 2=0.0492 as the specific value of a certain threshold and use this average value as the value of the second threshold; Although the embodiments of the present invention are described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the present invention is not limited to the above specific embodiments and application fields, and the above specific embodiments are only illustrative and instructive, rather than restrictive. A person of ordinary skill in the art can also make many forms under the guidance of this specification and without departing from the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention, all of which belong to the protection of the present invention.
