[0002] With the large-scale development of modern power grids, the large-scale grid connection of new energy sources, the widespread application of nonlinear loads and impact loads such as steel metallurgy and electrified railways have brought about serious power quality problems. Dynamic VAR compensation devices (SVG) can enhance power transmission capacity, reduce power loss, compensate for reactive power, control harmonics, suppress flicker, stabilize grid voltage, balance three-phase systems, change the damping characteristics of the system, and improve system stability. They have a wide range of applications. The power module in the dynamic reactive power compensation device (SVG) is the core component of this equipment. It is mainly composed of a multi-layer circuit board, a DC capacitor, an IGBT inverter bridge and various interfaces. It has a fully modular design, is filled with medium-temperature thermal conductive epoxy resin, and has a complex component composition. During the long-term operation of the dynamic reactive power compensation device (SVG), due to problems such as incomplete product control, long-distance transportation bumps, irregular installation, inadequate welding, and aging and failure of power components, the equipment structure becomes loose, the operation is unbalanced, the load is unbalanced, and mechanical failures occur. These failures will not only damage the equipment, but also cause additional energy consumption and noise, which may cause the equipment protection to start at the least, or even affect the safety of the power system at the worst. At present, the power module failure of the reactive power compensation device (SVG) causes frequent equipment tripping problems, and there is an urgent need for a method to monitor the operating environment of the power module of the reactive power compensation device (SVG).
