Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of substation busbar insulation protection, and specifically provides a substation busbar insulation protection device and an installation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous and rapid growth of China's economy, the demand for electricity is increasing. Whether it is for daily household electricity consumption or for the production and operation activities of industries, commerce, and various enterprises, the dependence on electric energy is increasing day by day. As a key link in the power system, the main function of a substation is to convert high-voltage electric energy into voltage levels suitable for various users. In this process, the substation busbar plays a crucial role. As a channel for electric energy transmission, it not only undertakes the transmission tasks of high voltage and large current, but also must ensure high reliability and stability under various operating conditions.
[0003] The busbar insulation protection device is an electrical component commonly used in substations to protect busbars. During the operation of a substation, the medium and low voltage side busbars are in harsh environments such as high temperature and high humidity for a long time, which will accelerate the aging of the busbar insulation coating material and cause a decline in insulation performance; or due to accidental contact of external foreign objects such as iron wires and branches, faults such as short circuits may occur.
[0004] Most of the existing busbar insulation boxes use silicone rubber as the main material and are installed by snap-fastening. Their ability to withstand mechanical stress is not good, and problems such as loosening, skewing, and falling off are likely to occur after long-term use; after some snap-fastening assemblies are connected, since they cannot be seen from the outside, it is impossible to effectively judge the final connection state and effect, which is likely to cause the situation of improper manual assembly, thus greatly reducing the connection quality. When the original busbar insulation box uses silicone rubber material, when the insulation box component is deformed, the snap-fastening is likely to become loose or even break. Once it breaks, the entire insulation box cannot be restored or even scrapped. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a substation busbar insulation protection device and an installation method thereof to solve the above defects.
[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
[0007] A substation busbar insulation protection device, comprising: a modular two - half axially symmetric structure device body unit, where the device body unit is composed of an arc - shaped shell, an n - shaped shell, and ear plates. There are two n - shaped shells, and at least two ear plates are symmetrically installed on both side edges of the arc - shaped shell; the two arc - shaped shells of the two device body units are fixed together by plastic bolts to form a circular cavity. At least four ear plates of the two device body units are combined in pairs to form at least two symmetric extension parts, and the four n - shaped shells of the two device body units are combined in pairs to form two symmetric flat cavities. The extension parts and flat cavities are both arranged on the outer wall of the circular cavity.
[0008] Preferably, square notches are arranged on both side edges of the arc - shaped shell, the n - shaped shell is installed on the outer wall of the arc - shaped shell at the square notch, and the flat cavity formed by combining the two n - shaped shells penetrates through the square notch into the interior of the circular cavity.
[0009] Preferably, composite connection holes that penetrate each other are arranged on the two ear plates of the extension part. A conductive shielding layer and a stress - sensing optical fiber are installed in the composite connection holes; the plastic bolt passes through the composite connection hole and is locked and fixed in cooperation with an intelligent nut. A torque sensor and a wireless transmission module are installed in the intelligent nut to achieve precise fixation and real - time status monitoring of the two - half axially symmetric structure device body unit.
[0010] Preferably, at least two composite connection holes on the extension part are symmetrically arranged with each other.
[0011] Preferably, a diversion groove and a hydrophobic coating are arranged on the inner wall of the circular cavity.
[0012] Preferably, the circular cavity is fixed by at least two extension parts, and the position of the extension part is effectively sealed by using a gradient sealing structure.
[0013] Preferably, an installation method of a substation busbar insulation protection device includes the following steps:
[0014] S1. Insulator assembly:
[0015] The lower end of the two - half device body unit of the substation busbar insulation protection device is sleeved on the upper end of the insulator at a preset angle of 45°±2°. After adjusting the position, ensure that the insulator is completely accommodated in the circular cavity;
[0016] S2. Busbar assembly:
[0017] The two - half device body unit is pre - assembled by the horizontal insertion method. Adjust the initial pressure of the flat cavity, and then slowly insert the busbar to be installed into the flat cavity from the preset direction. At the same time, monitor the real - time data of the stress - sensing optical fiber and dynamically adjust the assembly parameters to ensure that the busbar is completely accommodated and evenly stressed.
[0018] S3. Intelligent locking and calibration:
[0019] The tightening state of the plastic bolt is monitored in real - time through a torque sensor. A hierarchical locking strategy is adopted. First, pre - tighten to 50% of the rated torque, and then gradually increase to 100%. During the locking process, the real - time data is uploaded to the monitoring system through a wireless transmission module to complete the locking of the protection device, thus completing the installation process of the entire substation busbar insulation protection device.
[0020] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0021] (1) For the substation busbar insulation protection device of the present invention, through the fixed locking of the extension part formed by fixing multiple ear plates with plastic bolts, the circular cavity formed provides additional mechanical protection for the entire substation busbar insulation protection device. It has good stability and is not prone to damage such as loosening, skewing, and falling off, which can further ensure that the insulation performance of the entire device is not affected by external forces. Through this structural design, the protection device can effectively prevent foreign objects such as iron wires and branches from directly contacting the busbar, reducing the risks of short - circuit and arc flashover.
