Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of power protection devices, and in particular to a fuse self-diagnosis device and life prediction method for a high-voltage switch cabinet. Background Art
[0002] Fuses are common protective devices in power systems. Their main function is to cut off current when the circuit is overloaded or short-circuited, protecting the safe operation of equipment and lines. With the increasing complexity of power systems, fuse status monitoring and fault warning have become particularly important. However, traditional fuse monitoring methods mostly rely on manual inspections or simple electrical inspections, which makes it difficult to monitor the status of fuses in real time. Especially in complex environments such as high-voltage switchgear, the working status of fuses is easily affected by multiple factors such as temperature, load current, and voltage fluctuations, increasing the risk of fuse failure or malfunction.
[0003] The core working principle of the fuse self-diagnosis device and life prediction method is to accurately evaluate the operating status of the fuse and provide an early warning function by real-time acquisition and analysis of parameters such as current, voltage, and temperature in the working environment of the fuse. The device includes a current measurement module, a pressure measurement module, a temperature measurement module, and a data processing unit. Through these sensor modules, key parameters such as the load current, operating voltage, and surface temperature of the fuse can be monitored in real time. The wireless communication module transmits the data to the remote monitoring system, and combined with the algorithm, remote monitoring and intelligent analysis of the fuse life can be achieved, avoiding possible failures or equipment downtime accidents, greatly improving the operational reliability and safety of the power system.
[0004] Although there are some technologies for fuse condition monitoring, most of them
[0005] The system can only measure current or voltage, and cannot comprehensively consider multiple parameters in the operation of the fuse, resulting in low monitoring accuracy, unable to provide real-time feedback on the fuse status, and unable to provide early warning functions in combination with the fuse life. In addition, the existing monitoring equipment is bulky and complex to install, making it difficult to adapt to the application requirements of narrow spaces such as high-voltage switchgear. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a fuse monitoring device with high integration, strong real-time performance, and compact structure, which can operate stably in complex electrical environments to ensure the safety and reliability of the system.
[0006] Therefore, developing a fuse monitoring device with a high degree of integration, easy installation and intelligent monitoring function has broad market application prospects and important commercial value. Summary of the invention

If the resistance of the fuse to be tested exceeds 20% of its factory rated value, that is, the fuse to be tested has reached its life, an alarm mechanism is triggered to prompt the staff to handle it in time; the specific use steps and life prediction method include the following steps:
[0029] 1) Initialization phase
[0030] ① Install the fuse self-diagnosis device in the high-voltage switch cabinet, ensure that the safety fuse module is electrically connected to the fuse to be tested, and ensure that the safety fuse module, the power module, the temperature measurement module, the voltage measurement module, the current measurement module, the control unit and the wireless data transmission module are correctly installed inside the housing;
[0031] ② Use the electromagnetic induction coil to surround the fuse to be tested, convert the electromagnetic field changes around it into electrical energy, and provide it to the energy collection chip;
[0032] ③ The energy collection chip rectifies and boosts the unstable electric energy output by the electromagnetic induction coil, outputs a stable power supply, and provides operating power for the control unit, the current measurement module, the voltage measurement module, and the temperature measurement module; this design utilizes the electromagnetic environment in the switch cabinet to achieve self-power supply, avoids dependence on an external power supply, and improves the autonomy and safety of the system;
[0033] ④ Through the energy collection chip and the first voltage conversion chip and the second voltage conversion chip, ensure that each module obtains an adapted power supply to support the stable operation of the fuse self-diagnosis device;
[0034] 2) Data collection and transmission stage
[0035] ① The control unit activates the current measurement module, the voltage measurement module and the temperature measurement module in sequence by sending a control signal, and starts to collect the current, voltage and temperature data of the fuse to be tested in real time;
[0036] ② Each sensor module transmits the collected data to the control unit;
[0037] ③ The control unit converts the received analog signals into digital signals through ADC (analog-to-digital converter), and processes and corrects these signals to ensure the accuracy and consistency of the data;
[0038] ④ The processed current, voltage and temperature data will be transmitted to the wireless data transmission module through the digital communication interface, and then the data will be converted into wireless signals through the Star Flash protocol and transmitted to the master control module outside the shell; the master control module will calculate the resistance value of the fuse to be tested in real time according to the received data as the basic data for subsequent prediction;
[0039] 3) Neural network prediction stage
[0040] ① The master control module arranges the resistance data received in real time in chronological order to form time series data, and merges it with the previous historical data to provide a more comprehensive input data set;
[0041] ② Before the neural network prediction, the data needs to be fully preprocessed. First, the noise and outliers in the data are removed, and the input data such as temperature, voltage and current are normalized to ensure the consistency and reliability of the input data of the LSTM neural network, so as to avoid the degradation of model performance due to data differences;
[0042] ③ Extract characteristic values related to the resistance change of the fuse to be tested from the input data, including the historical change of resistance, temperature, voltage, current and their corresponding change rate, etc.; use sliding window technology to construct data sequences at multiple times as input features to enhance the LSTM model's ability to capture time series features and improve prediction accuracy;
[0043] ④ Divide the sorted time series data into training sets and test sets. Usually 80% of the data is used to train the model and 20% of the data is used to test the accuracy of the model. Configure the input layer, multiple hidden layers and output layer of the LSTM model, and set key parameters such as the number of hidden layer neurons, time step, and learning rate to ensure that the model has sufficient learning ability when processing time series data.
[0044] ⑤ Training phase: input the preprocessed resistance time series into the LSTM model, train the model using historical resistance data, and adjust the model parameters through feedback; after training, use the test set to verify the prediction performance and accuracy of the model to ensure its robustness in different scenarios;
[0045] ⑥ Prediction stage: Use the trained LSTM model to make real-time predictions on the newly received resistance data, and speculate the resistance change trend within a certain period of time in the future; if the predicted resistance exceeds the rated value of the fuse to be tested by 20%, the alarm mechanism is triggered, prompting the maintenance personnel to replace the fuse to be tested in time to avoid possible failures or equipment downtime accidents;
[0046] ⑦ Dynamic optimization: The LSTM model has the ability to learn online and update in real time. As new data is continuously input, the model can automatically adjust parameters to ensure the accuracy and timeliness of the prediction results, further improving the accuracy of the system's prediction of fuse life;
[0047] This process achieves full automation of fuse self-diagnosis and life prediction through three stages: initialization, data collection and transmission, and neural network prediction. It greatly improves the stability of the system and the accuracy of prediction, ensuring the safety of the fuse during long-term operation.
[0048] The technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention may have the following beneficial effects:
[0049] In the embodiment of the present invention, a safety fuse module is used to protect other modules from damage after the fuse is blown, which is safe and reliable. In addition, the device does not need to lead out an additional power supply port to power the sensor module and the control unit, but uses an electromagnetic induction coil combined with an energy collection chip to achieve self-power supply through an electromagnetic environment, avoiding the arc that may cause damage to the cable insulation layer, resulting in a short circuit or power supply interruption, thereby greatly reducing power supply failures and improving the safety and reliability of the system. The communication module of the device uses a Star Flash chip. The chip is based on the Star Flash protocol and has the characteristics of low power consumption and long-distance transmission. It can meet the needs of efficient data communication and reduce wiring costs. The Star Flash chip has strong anti-interference ability, which can ensure that data can still be transmitted stably in a complex electromagnetic environment to avoid communication interruption or data loss. An LSTM neural network algorithm is added to the master control module of the device. The algorithm establishes a prediction model for the resistance change trend by deep learning and analysis of the historical data of the fuse resistance value. The LSTM model can detect abnormal trends in advance by processing the time series data of the fuse resistance, and then predict the remaining life of the fuse. When the predicted result of the resistance value shows that it exceeds the rated resistance value by 20%, the system will trigger the early warning mechanism to remind the maintenance personnel to check and replace the fuse. This early warning function can effectively reduce the probability of failure, reduce the maintenance cost of the power system, and ensure the safety and reliability of equipment operation; the inner layer of the outer shell of this device is silicone, and the outer layer is epoxy resin. This insulation structure can avoid arc discharge that may occur under high voltage environment and prevent electrical interference between modules. Therefore, the embodiment of the present invention enhances the independence and reliability of the system. By predicting the resistance value of the fuse in real time and then predicting the remaining life of the fuse, abnormal conditions or potential faults can be predicted in advance, improving the reliability and safety of the system, reducing the risk of unexpected shutdown and equipment damage, and improving the operating efficiency of the power system.

[0086] ③ The energy collection chip rectifies and boosts the unstable electric energy output by the electromagnetic induction coil, outputs a stable power supply, and provides operating power for the control unit, the current measurement module, the voltage measurement module, and the temperature measurement module; this design utilizes the electromagnetic environment in the switch cabinet to achieve self-power supply, avoids dependence on an external power supply, and improves the autonomy and safety of the system;
[0087] ④ Through the energy collection chip and the first voltage conversion chip and the second voltage conversion chip, ensure that each module obtains an adapted power supply to support the stable operation of the fuse self-diagnosis device;
[0088] 2) Data collection and transmission stage
[0089] ① The control unit activates the current measurement module, the voltage measurement module and the temperature measurement module in sequence by sending a control signal, and starts to collect the current, voltage and temperature data of the fuse to be tested in real time;
[0090] ② Each sensor module transmits the collected data to the control unit;

[0092] ④ The processed current, voltage and temperature data will be transmitted to the wireless data transmission module through the digital communication interface, and then the data will be converted into wireless signals through the Star Flash protocol and transmitted to the master control module outside the shell; the master control module will calculate the resistance value of the fuse to be tested in real time according to the received data as the basic data for subsequent prediction;
[0093] 2) Data collection and transmission stage

[0095] ② The data collected by each sensor module is transmitted to the control unit through internal connections;

[0098] 3) Neural network prediction stage
[0099] ① The master control module arranges the resistance data received in real time in chronological order to form time series data, and merges it with the previous historical data to provide a more comprehensive input data set;
[0100] ② Before the neural network prediction, the data needs to be fully preprocessed. First, the noise and outliers in the data are removed, and the input data such as temperature, voltage and current are normalized to ensure the consistency and reliability of the input data of the LSTM neural network, so as to avoid the degradation of model performance due to data differences;
[0101] ③ Extract characteristic values related to the resistance change of the fuse to be tested from the input data, including the historical change of resistance, temperature, voltage, current and their corresponding change rate, etc.; use sliding window technology to construct data sequences at multiple times as input features to enhance the LSTM model's ability to capture time series features and improve prediction accuracy;
[0102] ④ Divide the sorted time series data into training sets and test sets. Usually 80% of the data is used to train the model and 20% of the data is used to test the accuracy of the model. Configure the input layer, multiple hidden layers and output layer of the LSTM model, and set key parameters such as the number of hidden layer neurons, time step, and learning rate to ensure that the model has sufficient learning ability when processing time series data.
[0103] ⑤ Training phase: Input the preprocessed resistance time series into the LSTM model, use the historical resistance data to train the model, and adjust the model parameters through feedback. After the training is completed, use the test set to verify the prediction performance and accuracy of the model to ensure its robustness in different scenarios;
[0104] ⑥ Prediction stage: Use the trained LSTM model to make real-time predictions on the newly received resistance data, and speculate the resistance change trend in a certain period of time in the future. If the predicted resistance exceeds the rated value of the fuse to be tested by 20%, the alarm mechanism will be triggered, prompting the maintenance personnel to replace the fuse to be tested in time to avoid possible failures or equipment downtime accidents;
[0105] ⑦ Dynamic optimization: The LSTM model has the ability of online learning and real-time updating. As new data is continuously input, the model can automatically adjust parameters to ensure the accuracy and timeliness of the prediction results, further improving the system's prediction accuracy of the fuse life.
[0106] This process achieves full automation of fuse self-diagnosis and life prediction through three stages: initialization, data collection and transmission, and neural network prediction. It greatly improves the stability of the system and the accuracy of prediction, ensuring the safety of the fuse during long-term operation.
