[0028] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] like Figure 1FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment of the partial discharge instrument and its intelligent inspection data acquisition method according to the present invention.

[0030] The partial discharge instrument and its intelligent inspection data collection method in this embodiment include the following steps: starting a corresponding inspection process according to the type of the device under test; if a defect is detected, obtaining the defect type and level; and calibrating the defect status. This step includes the following:

[0031] S21, scanning the part to be inspected by using the ultrasonic sensor of the partial discharge instrument;

[0032] S22, if the detected signal is abnormal, measurements are taken from different angles to eliminate the influence of noise and determine the location of the fault point, which includes the steps of measuring at different horizontal and vertical angles around the equipment fault point, with each measurement being spaced at a certain angle interval;

[0033] S23, saving the test result information, and storing the test result information in a preset DAT data format and WAV audio format.

[0034] In specific implementation, the laser ranging information and image information captured by a high-pixel visible light camera are combined to extract and analyze features of the captured images to identify the key feature points of the equipment. Then, combined with the distance data obtained by laser ranging, triangular geometric relationships are used to accurately calculate the specific position of the fault point in the image (an algorithm for locating defective areas).

[0035] Calculation process: Assume that the positions of two reference points A and B are known, as well as the distances d1 and d2 from the fault point P to these two reference points (obtained through laser ranging), and the distance between points A and B is L. Establish a plane rectangular coordinate system with A as the origin, the coordinates of point B are (L, 0), and the coordinates of point P are (x, y):

[0036]

[0037] Transform the first formula into Substituting into the second formula we get:

[0038]

[0039] Expand and simplify:

[0040]

[0041] Solve for x:

[0042]

[0043] Then substitute the value of x into Find y:

[0044]

[0045] Discard unreasonable solutions according to the actual situation to obtain the coordinates (x, y) of the fault point P;

[0046] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the corresponding detection process is started according to the type of the device under test; if a defect is detected, the defect type and level are obtained, and the defect status is calibrated before the step further includes:

[0047] Start the PD meter, log in to your personal account, enter the distribution network inspection program, obtain the day's work information, download the day's work order information in the distribution network inspection program and enter the inspection mode; confirm the basic information according to the work order content, complete the pre-operation preparation, understand the operation risks, and then start the line inspection steps.

[0048] Furthermore, according to the type of the device under test, the steps of starting the corresponding detection process include: a step of transient ground voltage inspection, which includes:

[0049] S31, detection background value;

[0050] S32, placing the transient voltage sensor close to the outer surface of the metal shell, observing the signal amplitude and comparing it with the background value;

[0051] S33, if there is an abnormality, multiple multi-point detections are performed to find the location of the maximum signal point;

[0052] S34, save the test results and record abnormal conditions.

[0053] Preferably, the steps of detecting the background value include the following: selecting metal doors and windows in the switch room away from the switch cabinet, placing the sensor close to the metal doors and windows, and recording the background detection results after the readings are stable; multiple multi-point detections are performed at different sides, upper and lower parts of the switch cabinet, and each detection is performed at a certain distance.

[0054] Furthermore, according to the type of the device under test, the steps of starting the corresponding detection process include the following: the infrared inspection step, the infrared inspection step includes:

[0055] S41, avoid direct sunlight and choose suitable environmental conditions;

[0056] S42, setting sensor parameters according to on-site conditions;

[0057] S43, select a suitable temperature measurement mode and aim the infrared lens at the part to be tested for testing.

[0058] Among them, selecting appropriate environmental conditions includes: outdoor testing on a sunny day, avoiding direct sunlight or reflection from the instrument lens; indoor or night testing, avoiding direct light; the ambient temperature is not lower than 5°C and the relative humidity is not greater than 85%; the equipment being tested is a live operating device, avoiding closed obstructions in the line of sight during testing.

[0059] During implementation, we established the following algorithm for the infrared inspection process:

[0060] The infrared detector in the infrared thermal imaging module absorbs the infrared radiation from the object and converts it into an electrical signal. After being processed by the signal processing circuit, the electrical signal is converted into a corresponding temperature value based on the relationship between the intensity of the infrared radiation and the temperature of the object.

[0061] Calculation process: The relationship between the radiation power P received by the infrared detector and the object temperature T (unit: Kelvin) can be expressed as follows under certain approximate conditions:

[0062] P=εσT 4

[0063] Among them, ε is the emissivity of the object, which reflects the ability of the object to radiate infrared rays;

[0064] σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant. In practical applications, infrared thermal imagers first calibrate and calibrate the electrical signal output by the detector, establishing the relationship between the electrical signal value V and the radiation power P: P = f(V). The temperature T of the object can then be inferred from the above formula:

[0065]

[0066] The suitable environmental conditions are as follows: when testing outdoors on a sunny day, the instrument lens should avoid direct sunlight or reflection; when testing indoors or at night, it should avoid direct light; the ambient temperature should be no less than 5°C, the relative humidity should be no more than 85%, and the weather should be cloudy, overcast or at night; the equipment being tested should be energized and running, and closed obstructions should be avoided in the line of sight during testing.

[0067] Preferably, the corresponding detection process is started according to the type of the device under test; if it is determined that a defect is detected, the defect type and level are obtained, and the defect condition is calibrated. The step also includes: transmitting data through the Type-c interface and uploading the data information to the PC platform. The uploaded data information includes: detection data, defect information or inspection route information.
