Due to the wide coverage of power lines, the complex terrain of the crossing area, and the harsh natural environment, the power department spends huge resources every year to patrol the lines in order to grasp the operation status of the lines and eliminate potential hidden dangers of the lines in time. At present, the commonly used inspection methods mainly include: robot inspection, aircraft inspection and manual inspection. The power inspection robot uses a movable humanoid mechanical vehicle equipped with infrared cameras and other data acquisition equipment to inspect power equipment and lines according to designated routes and steps. It is mostly used in places such as substations. Aircraft inspection mainly includes two types: drones and helicopters. The aircraft is equipped with inspection data acquisition equipment and is manually controlled to inspect power lines and equipment. It is mostly used for the inspection of large-scale ultra-high voltage transmission equipment in plain areas. Manual inspection, power inspection personnel carry inspection data recording notebooks and inspect power lines and equipment according to designated inspection routes. It mainly relies on the experience of the inspection personnel and is mostly used in areas with complex geographical environments, inconvenient transportation, and large equipment cannot reach.

[0004] The existing power inspection method still requires manual inspection, which has low work efficiency. Some inspections are carried out by drones, but it is not convenient to make preliminary judgments and locate the power circuits, which affects the efficiency of subsequent maintenance. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the shortcomings that the existing power inspection method still requires manual inspection, which has low work efficiency and partially uses drone inspection, but it is not convenient to make preliminary judgments and positioning of power circuits, which affects the efficiency of subsequent maintenance. An optimization method combining positioning signals with power inspection is proposed.
