In specific use, the first rotary drive motor 210 rotates to drive the first support rod 220 to rotate, and the second rotary drive motor 230 rotates to drive the second support rod 240 to rotate, so that the first support rod 220 and the second support rod 240 form a two-link mechanism, which can adjust the angle and height of the three-phase mechanical arm 400. Preferably, in the present embodiment, both the first rotary drive motor 210 and the second rotary drive motor 230 are self-locking drive motors, which can be locked and prevented from rotating when the power is off.

[0042] S2, after the carrier H reaches the detection pre-stop position, the translation mechanism 100 drives the angle adjustment mechanism 200 to move left and right to adjust the overall approximate horizontal movement position of the three-phase robot arm 400;

[0043] S3, then the angle adjustment mechanism 200 adjusts the angle and height of the three-phase mechanical arm 400 so that the three-phase mechanical arm 400 is flush with the contact of the 6KV switch cabinet to be tested;

[0044] S4. After the three-phase mechanical arm 400 is aligned with the contact of the 6KV switch cabinet to be inspected, the spacing adjustment mechanism 300 adjusts the distance between the three detection arms of the three-phase mechanical arm 400 so that the distances between the three detection arms and the three contacts of the 6KV switch cabinet to be inspected correspond one to one;
