Description

Technical Field

[0002] Porcelain insulators are the most commonly used insulators at present. Insulators play the role of mechanical support and power insulation for transmission lines. After a fault occurs inside a porcelain insulator, the appearance often does not change, and the detection work is time-consuming and laborious. However, insulator failure will endanger the safe and stable operation of the power grid and affect social production. If the life of the insulator can be estimated, the inspectors can reasonably formulate the inspection plan and determine the inspection cycle. Estimating the operating life of porcelain insulators not only ensures the safety of the power grid, but also reduces the workload of inspection.

[0003] Porcelain insulators have stable chemical properties, long aging time, and are mostly damaged by long-term stress. It is a reasonable choice to estimate the life according to the actual tensile force. However, the actual damage time under tensile force is as long as ten years or even decades. The present invention calculates the weighted geometric mean based on the actual tensile force and the tensile force value of rapid breaking, shortens the test damage time to a range of several hours to several months, and extrapolates the damage time under actual tensile force based on this damage time.

For each set of tests, the time to break the insulator string must be recorded and sorted from small to large. Record the breaking time T (k, m) in hours, where The data is recorded in the following table:

[0036]

[0037] Among them, F k =694 kN, three groups of tests were not damaged for more than 8000 hours, so the damage time was not recorded. The lack of a small amount of data does not affect the use of the method of the present invention. k =753 ​​kN is missing a data point when testing.
