Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power system monitoring and early warning, and particularly to a fault early warning system for power transmission and transformation equipment based on on-line monitoring. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous expansion of the scale of the power system, as the core components of the power grid operation, the safety and stability of power transmission and transformation equipment become particularly important. However, due to the long-term operation of power transmission and transformation equipment under high voltage, high load and complex environments, the occurrence of faults is unpredictable. Most traditional maintenance methods for power transmission and transformation equipment rely on regular inspections and manual patrols, which not only involve huge workloads, but also may fail to detect equipment hidden dangers in time, thus leading to serious power accidents. Therefore, how to monitor and early warn the faults of power transmission and transformation equipment through intelligent means has become an important issue in the power industry.
[0003] Existing fault monitoring technologies for power transmission and transformation equipment mainly rely on the monitoring of single or a small number of parameters, such as physical quantities like temperature, current, voltage, etc. The abnormal detection methods based on these parameters usually use preset thresholds, and when a certain parameter exceeds the threshold, the system will issue an alarm. This single-parameter monitoring method has multiple problems. First of all, equipment faults are often the result of the combined action of multiple factors, and the change of a single parameter may not be sufficient to comprehensively reflect the true state of the equipment; secondly, the fixed early warning threshold cannot adapt to the changes in the equipment operation environment, such as seasonal climate changes or load fluctuations, which is likely to lead to false alarms or missed alarms; furthermore, due to the complexity of equipment operation and the huge amount of data, relying on a single parameter cannot effectively capture the non-linear change trend of equipment faults and cannot achieve accurate fault early warning.
[0004] In order to improve the accuracy of fault early warning, in recent years, methods of multi-parameter fusion analysis have emerged, attempting to fuse the data collected by multiple sensors and generate a more accurate equipment health status through data fusion algorithms. However, most existing data fusion technologies are based on simple weighted averaging or logical reasoning. Although these methods have improved the detection accuracy to a certain extent, due to their inability to dynamically and adaptively adjust the fusion weights, there are still large limitations for data under complex working conditions. In addition, most existing fusion methods are based on static models and cannot be optimized in real time according to the changes in equipment status. This makes the early warning ability of the system prone to decline when the equipment operation environment and load conditions change.
[0005] Another challenge is that most existing fault prediction models rely on linear or simple machine learning algorithms, such as support vector machines (SVM), decision trees, etc. These methods have certain effects when dealing with simple fault patterns, but they show obvious deficiencies when facing more complex fault patterns. Especially, the operating states and fault trends of power transmission and transformation equipment usually exhibit non-linear, time-varying, and multi-dimensional characteristics, and traditional linear models cannot capture the dynamic change trends of equipment health states. In addition, these methods cannot adaptively optimize and update the prediction model, making it difficult to meet the personalized needs of different equipment.
[0006] In addition, there are also significant limitations in the existing technologies for generating maintenance suggestions. Traditional methods usually rely on historical data and experience for simple inferences. When equipment shows anomalies, the system can only give fixed suggestions, such as arranging maintenance or replacing components. However, such experience-based suggestions often lack pertinence and are difficult to provide precise maintenance plans according to the specific fault patterns and operating states of the equipment. This not only reduces the efficiency of fault handling but may even lead to an increase in maintenance costs.
[0007] Regarding the linkage problem of the power grid dispatching system, existing technologies are usually limited to manual operations. When the early warning level of equipment is relatively high, operators need to manually adjust the load distribution of power grid equipment, start redundant equipment, etc. This way that relies on human judgment and operation is not only inefficient but also prone to delays, unable to respond immediately at the moment of fault occurrence, thus affecting the stability of the power system.
[0008] In summary, there are many deficiencies in the existing technologies for fault monitoring, early warning, and maintenance of power transmission and transformation equipment: First, the single-parameter monitoring method cannot comprehensively reflect the operating state of the equipment; second, the existing data fusion methods cannot dynamically adjust weights and are difficult to cope with complex working condition changes; third, traditional fault prediction models are difficult to capture the non-linear changes in equipment health states and cannot achieve precise trend prediction; finally, the maintenance suggestions lack pertinence, and the linkage response efficiency of the power grid dispatching system is low. These technical defects lead to the instability of the fault early warning system in practical applications and increase the risk of equipment operation.
[0009] Therefore, how to provide a fault early warning system for power transmission and transformation equipment based on online monitoring is an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

The system can not only accurately predict the equipment failure trend, but also generate intelligent maintenance suggestions according to different warning levels, and link with the power grid dispatching system, improving the real-time and accuracy of fault warning and the efficiency of system emergency response, and has the advantages of high safety, precise maintenance and strong linkage.

[0099] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0100] First of all, the system realizes real-time monitoring of power transmission and transformation equipment through a multi-parameter sensor module, and collects various operation state data including temperature, vibration, current, voltage, and partial discharge. This multi-parameter monitoring method makes up for the deficiencies of traditional single-parameter monitoring methods, can more comprehensively reflect the operation state of the equipment, especially in complex working conditions with multi-dimensional operation of the equipment, and can significantly improve the accuracy and comprehensiveness of monitoring.
[0101] Secondly, the system adopts a multi-modal data fusion algorithm based on a self-evolving nested network, and combines an adaptive weight assignment model to perform fusion analysis on various sensor data to generate a comprehensive health score. This dynamic weight assignment mechanism enables the data fusion process to adapt to changes in the equipment operation environment, adjusts the contribution degree of each modal data in real time, and avoids false alarms and missed alarms caused by fixed weights in the prior art. In addition, the nested network can continuously optimize its own structure according to the equipment operation state, further improving the accuracy and robustness of data fusion.
[0102] In terms of fault trend prediction, the system introduces a generative adversarial adaptive residual network, and corrects the output and adjusts the architecture of the generator through an adaptive residual module, making the fault prediction of the equipment more accurate. Compared with traditional linear models that cannot handle the complex non-linear changes of equipment, the generative adversarial network of the present invention can capture the dynamic change trend of the equipment health state, continuously optimize the generator output through the feedback mechanism of the residual error, greatly improves the accuracy and timeliness of fault prediction, and significantly reduces the risk of faults.
[0103] In addition, the system adopts an adaptive evolution algorithm based on meta-reinforcement learning, which can dynamically adjust the warning threshold according to the historical operation data and real-time state of the equipment. This technology avoids the problem of inflexible warnings caused by fixed thresholds in the prior art. Through the reinforcement learning mechanism, the system can adaptively optimize the warning strategy according to different equipment and working conditions, improve the accuracy and adaptability of fault warnings, thereby effectively reducing the false alarm rate and missed alarm rate, and enhancing the warning reliability of the system.
[0104] In terms of fault maintenance, the present invention generates corresponding maintenance suggestions based on the fault risk index and warning level. The system can automatically generate yellow, orange, and red warnings, corresponding to different levels of fault handling strategies. Different from the prior art that relies on experience to generate fixed suggestions, the present invention provides a more detailed and accurate maintenance strategy based on multi-dimensional data analysis. The operation and maintenance personnel can perform targeted maintenance according to specific suggestions, thereby reducing the fault handling time and improving the maintenance efficiency.
[0105] Finally, the system realizes the linkage with the power grid dispatching system. When the warning level of the equipment reaches orange or red, the system can automatically detect and adjust the load of the equipment. When necessary, the load is distributed to standby equipment or redundant equipment is started to ensure the stability of the power grid operation. This intelligent linkage mechanism greatly improves the emergency response ability of the system, can effectively control risks in the initial stage of the fault, prevent the fault from further deteriorating, and ensures the stability and safety of the entire power system.

[0197] Red warning: The system recommends immediate shutdown or emergency repair, analyzes possible fault modes in detail, such as electrical short - circuit, component wear or insulation damage, and prompts the operation and maintenance personnel to take emergency response measures.
[0198] Example 1:
[0199] To verify the feasibility of the present invention in implementation, the present invention is applied to a certain high - voltage transmission and transformation substation in the North China Power Grid. Transmission and transformation equipment has been operating in an environment of high voltage and high load for a long time. The occurrence of equipment failures poses a great threat to the stability and security of the power grid. In the past, since most of the equipment in this substation adopted a traditional single - parameter monitoring system, only physical parameters such as temperature, current or voltage of the equipment were monitored. Once these parameters exceeded the preset fixed threshold, the system would issue an alarm. However, this method has a high false alarm rate, especially in the case of temperature changes and load fluctuations, the false alarm frequency is relatively high, resulting in a large number of ineffective equipment maintenance works. At the same time, since the traditional method fails to fully consider the multi - dimensional operation state of the equipment, many potential equipment failures cannot be detected in time, resulting in a high frequency of sudden equipment failures in the past few years, bringing great hidden dangers to the power grid security.
[0200] To solve these problems, North China Power Grid introduced a fault warning system for power transmission and transformation equipment based on on-line monitoring. This system uses a multi-parameter sensor module, which can collect various operation status data of power transmission and transformation equipment in real time, such as temperature, vibration, current, voltage, partial discharge, etc. These data are transmitted to the data processing center through a wireless sensor network. The system is based on a multi-modal data fusion algorithm of a self-evolving nested network to comprehensively process various sensor data, thereby generating a comprehensive health score of the equipment.
[0201] In a certain application, the temperature data of a main transformer continuously remained higher than the normal range during the peak summer load period. However, due to the traditional system using a fixed warning threshold, it failed to determine whether this anomaly was a real fault hidden danger. The new system not only collected temperature data but also combined multi-dimensional data such as vibration, partial discharge, and current, and performed data fusion through a self-evolving nested network to generate a comprehensive health score of the equipment. The results showed that the comprehensive health score only decreased slightly and did not reach the warning standard of the system. The system dynamically adjusted the weight of the temperature parameter according to the fused health score, avoiding false alarms caused by single data anomalies. Finally, through the trend prediction module, the equipment was determined to be operating normally and did not require shutdown for maintenance, greatly saving maintenance costs.
[0202] In another actual application, for the switchgear in a substation, the vibration and current fluctuated abnormally in the multi-dimensional monitoring data. The traditional system only monitored the current parameter and failed to give an early warning in the initial stage of the anomaly, resulting in an accidental fault tripping event of the switchgear during use, which had a greater impact on the operation of the power grid. After the new system was introduced, in the case where the fault did not occur, the system used the trend prediction technology of a generative adversarial adaptive residual network to identify the fault trend of the equipment in advance. The adaptive residual module deeply analyzed the comprehensive health score and historical operation data of the equipment, and the generated trend prediction data showed that the decline rate of the health index of the equipment increased significantly. The system issued an orange warning, suggesting that the operation and maintenance personnel conduct further inspections on the equipment.
[0203] According to the maintenance suggestions generated by the system, the operation and maintenance personnel quickly inspected the switchgear and found that due to long-term high-load operation, the mechanical components were worn, posing a potential tripping risk. Based on the maintenance suggestions provided by the system, the operation and maintenance personnel replaced the relevant components in advance, successfully avoiding a possible equipment fault tripping event. This example proves that the prediction accuracy of the new system has been greatly improved, which can identify equipment fault risks in advance and provide sufficient time windows for power grid dispatching and maintenance.
[0204] In addition, in another 500 kV substation located in a certain place in Hebei Province, the new system was effectively linked with the power grid dispatching system. During a high-load operation, the partial discharge data of the main transformer equipment showed abnormal fluctuations. Through the trend analysis of the adaptive residual network, the system predicted that the health score of the equipment would continue to decline, and immediately issued a red warning. The system automatically linked the power grid dispatching center, first reduced the load of the equipment, and then automatically started the standby redundant equipment, ensuring the stable operation of the power grid. Finally, the equipment was further detected and repaired during the reduced-load operation, without affecting the operation of the power grid.
[0205] According to the data provided by the substation, the system conducted a total of 256 equipment status evaluations during the one-year period from June 2019 to June 2020. Among them, 78 equipment anomalies were detected, and the system generated 52 yellow warnings, 19 orange warnings, and 7 red warnings respectively. In orange and red warning events, the system linked the power grid dispatching system and initiated 5 redundant equipment startups and 13 load transfer operations. All these operations effectively avoided sudden failures of power grid equipment. Compared with the previous traditional warning system, the false alarm rate of this system was reduced by approximately 60%, and no power supply interruption events caused by sudden equipment failures occurred.
[0206] From these actual application scenarios, it can be seen that the power transmission and transformation equipment fault warning system based on online monitoring of the present invention can significantly improve the accuracy and timeliness of fault warning when dealing with complex power equipment operating environments, reduce false alarms and missed alarms, improve the efficiency of equipment maintenance, and reduce the risks and costs of power system operation. Significant beneficial effects have been achieved in aspects such as equipment fault prediction, warning threshold adjustment, maintenance recommendation generation, and power grid dispatching linkage, greatly improving the safety and stability of the power system.
[0207] Table 1 Comparative analysis table of the status of power transmission and transformation equipment based on traditional and intelligent fault warning systems
[0208]
[0209]
[0210] Through the comparative analysis in Table 1, significant differences were shown between the traditional power transmission and transformation equipment fault warning system and the newly introduced intelligent monitoring system in terms of equipment status monitoring and fault warning. First of all, in terms of the number of equipment status evaluations, the new system evaluated the equipment status 256 times in one year, an increase of 28% compared with 200 times of the traditional system. This improvement is due to the fact that the new system can conduct more accurate and automated monitoring, reducing the need for human intervention and significantly enhancing the frequency and efficiency of equipment status monitoring.
[0211] In terms of the number of device anomalies detected, the traditional system only detected 60 device anomalies, while the new system detected 78, representing a 30% increase. This increase reflects that the new system, through multimodal data fusion and trend prediction technologies, monitors the operating status of devices more comprehensively and precisely, and can identify more potential failure risks.
[0212] Regarding the warning levels, the new system had 52 yellow warning times, while the traditional system had 30, indicating that the new system can detect mild anomalies earlier, which helps to take preventive measures in advance and avoid minor problems evolving into serious faults. At the same time, the number of orange and red warnings also increased significantly, reaching 19 and 7 respectively, which shows that the new system can accurately identify moderate and severe anomalies of the device and issue more targeted alarms, thus improving the response speed and maintenance efficiency of the operation and maintenance personnel.
[0213] In terms of the startup of redundant devices and load transfer operations, the new system is significantly superior to the traditional system. The number of redundant device startups increased from 2 to 5, and the load transfer operations increased from 5 to 13. This reflects the intelligent linkage between the new system and the power grid dispatching system, which can quickly take effective dispatching measures when severe warnings occur in the device, reduce the impact of device failures on the power grid operation, and ensure the stability of the power grid.
[0214] Finally, it is worth noting the significant decrease in the false alarm rate. The false alarm rate of the new system decreased by approximately 60% compared to the traditional system. This result shows that the multi-parameter fusion and adaptive warning threshold adjustment mechanism of the new system can effectively avoid false alarms and reduce ineffective maintenance work. In addition, within one year, there were no power supply interruption events caused by device failures in the new system, while the traditional system had 2 power supply interruptions during the same period. This result fully demonstrates the superiority of the new system in preventing major faults.
[0215] Generally speaking, based on the comparative analysis of this table, it can be concluded that the new system is not only significantly superior to the traditional system in the comprehensiveness and accuracy of device status monitoring, but also effectively reduces the device failure risk through intelligent warning and dispatching linkage, improving the overall operation stability and safety of power transmission and transformation equipment. This shows that the new system has strong application prospects and technical advantages in the field of power transmission and transformation equipment warning and maintenance.

Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
