Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electric energy calibration, and in particular to a modular calibration device for digital and analog voltage and current signals. Background Art
[0002] The concept of "distribution primary and secondary integration" based on electronic transformers aims to improve the standardization and integration of distribution equipment through technological innovation, and to improve the joint debugging and testing mechanisms and requirements of primary and secondary equipment, thereby improving the operating level, operation and maintenance quality and efficiency of distribution equipment.
[0003] The electronic transformer for "primary and secondary power distribution integration" integrates a set of electronic combination sensors within the switch body to measure three-phase voltage, three-phase current, zero-sequence voltage, and zero-sequence current. The switch also includes a built-in, hot-swappable electronic sensor digitization unit (ADMU), which converts the analog voltage output of the electronic sensor into a digital signal and transmits it in FT3 format via a communication system to a data processing terminal.
[0004] With technological advancements, electronic instrument transformers (ETTs) are becoming increasingly common in distribution networks. However, existing EIT calibrators are insufficient for testing EITs in low-voltage distribution networks. In practice, the reliability and stability of the ADMU (digital conversion unit) in an EIT are lower than those of the sensor, and the ADMU calibration cycle is significantly shorter than that of traditional sensors. This results in frontline personnel often only needing to calibrate the digital output of distribution network EITs, but still having to carry a large EIT calibrator with integrated digital and analog calibration functions.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to consider the modular design of digital and analog calibration functions to ensure that front-line staff can choose the distribution network calibrator function according to actual work needs and realize lightweight office needs. Summary of the Invention

[0036] The following description sets forth numerous specific details to facilitate a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways than those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific implementations disclosed below.
[0037] The overall architecture of a modular calibration device for digital and analog voltage and current signals is as follows: Figure 1 The device includes a digital calibration module, an analog calibration module, and a control module. The modules exchange data via module connectors. The device also assists with voltage and current boosting devices to complete the calibration of electronic transformers.
[0038] A digital calibration module is used to convert the analog voltage / current signal output by the high-precision power supply into a digital signal, compare the digital signal with the digital signal output by the electronic transformer to be calibrated, and calculate the angular difference and ratio difference of the voltage / current signal output by the high-precision power supply; and transmit the angular difference and ratio difference to the control module;
[0039] The analog quantity calibration module is connected to the boost and current rising device, and the standard voltage and current transformer receives the high voltage and high current analog signal output by the boost and current rising device and matched with the rated value of the electronic transformer to be calibrated, and transmits the high voltage and high current analog signal to the digital quantity calibration module; the electronic transformer to be calibrated is connected to the boost and current rising device, receives the high voltage and high current analog signal output by the boost and current rising device, and transmits the high voltage and high current analog signal to the digital quantity calibration module; the high voltage and high current analog signals output by the standard voltage and current transformer and the electronic transformer to be calibrated are respectively converted into digital signals by the digital quantity calibration module; the digital signals output by the standard voltage and current transformer and the electronic transformer to be calibrated are compared, and the angle difference and ratio difference of the high voltage and high current signals are respectively calculated; the angle difference and ratio difference are transmitted to the control module;
[0040] The control module is used to control the digital calibration module and the analog calibration module, and receive data sent by the digital calibration module and the analog calibration module.
[0041] When the digital ADMU of the electronic transformer to be calibrated needs to be calibrated, only the digital calibration module and the control module can be installed. The working mode of the digital calibration module architecture is as follows Figure 2 The digital calibration module includes: protocol conversion submodule, data comparison submodule, high-precision power supply and high-precision AD submodule;
[0042] The protocol conversion submodule is used to adjust the transmission protocol of the digital output of different electronic transformers;

[0045] High-precision AD submodule is used to convert the analog signal output by the high-precision power supply or the signal output by the standard voltage and current transformer module into a digital signal.
[0046] When calibrating the digital output of an electronic instrument transformer (ETT), the low-voltage / current output of the ETT is zero. The high-precision power supply in the digital calibration module outputs signals to the AD conversion submodule. The high-precision power supply outputs a 57.7V low-voltage signal and a 5A or 1A low-current signal. A protocol converter adjusts the transmission protocol for the ADMU output of different EITs. The high-precision AD conversion submodule converts the analog output of the high-precision power supply into a digital value. The data comparison submodule compares the EIT output signal with the calibrator output signal to calculate the angular and ratio differences of the voltage and current. Finally, the data is transmitted to the control module via a connector for display of the angular and ratio differences.
[0047] When the transformer to be calibrated needs to be calibrated as a whole, the analog calibration module, digital calibration module and control module must be installed at the same time, and the boost and current device must be installed as well. Figure 3 shown.

Subsequent calibration procedures can be followed similarly to the digital calibration module.
