These factors can significantly impact the electrical performance and long-term reliability of lightning arresters. Traditional lightning arrester testing methods, primarily based on tests conducted under standard altitude conditions, cannot accurately simulate the unique high-altitude environment.

[0062] Calculate the leakage current change rate at different voltages to assess the stability of the leakage current as it changes with voltage. The leakage current change rate is the ratio of the difference in leakage current at two adjacent points on the arrester to the voltage difference. If the change rate is too large, it indicates that the insulation performance of the arrester is unstable.
[0063] The insulation strength is a comparison of the actual measured leakage current with the standard value provided by the manufacturer or the allowable leakage current value specified in the industry standard; if the actual leakage current exceeds the allowable value, it may indicate that the insulation strength is insufficient;

Compare the actual performance trend of the current arrester with the performance benchmark model of a new arrester of the same batch and model under ideal conditions. If the actual curve deviates significantly from the benchmark curve and develops in the direction of performance deterioration, it can be determined that the operating environment of the arrester is poor or that the arrester itself has quality problems.
[0085] Real-time monitoring of the operating status of the test platform includes equipment operating status monitoring, test process monitoring, environmental condition monitoring, and safety status monitoring;
[0086] The equipment operation status monitoring includes voltage monitoring, current monitoring, temperature monitoring and cooling system detection;
[0087] For voltage monitoring, high-precision voltage sensors are installed at both ends of the power supply system and the lightning arrester of the test platform to monitor the voltage value in real time and set the normal voltage range. For current monitoring, current sensors are installed at the power supply circuit and the lightning arrester grounding lead to monitor the current in real time. For temperature monitoring, temperature sensors are installed at key locations of the integrated environment simulation unit, data acquisition and control unit, and multi-dimensional performance test unit to monitor temperature changes in real time and set temperature thresholds. For cooling system monitoring, the coolant flow, pressure, and temperature of the cooling system are monitored in real time.
[0088] As a specific example, during the power frequency withstand voltage test, the voltage must be stable within ±5% of the set value. Once the voltage exceeds the range, the system will immediately issue an alarm, indicating that there may be power fluctuations or equipment failure. The impulse current in the lightning impulse test is generally in the kiloampere level. If the actual current is significantly abnormal, the power supply is quickly cut off to prevent overcurrent damage to the equipment. The internal temperature of the comprehensive environmental simulation unit is set within a certain range. If the temperature exceeds the normal range, the temperature control equipment is adjusted in time to avoid high temperature damage to the equipment or low temperature causing test errors. The coolant flow rate should be maintained within ±10% of the set value, the pressure should be stable within a certain range, and the temperature should not be too high. If the parameters are abnormal, affecting the heat dissipation of the equipment, the cooling system needs to be adjusted in time to ensure normal operation of the equipment.
[0089] The test process monitoring includes test module status monitoring and test parameter monitoring;
[0090] The test module status monitoring system monitors the operating status of each test module in real time, including the charging voltage and discharge status of the lightning impulse test module and the output voltage stability of the power frequency withstand voltage test module. It also monitors in real time whether various parameters during the test are executed according to the preset procedures and requirements, including the impulse voltage amplitude, waveform, number of impulses, and power frequency voltage application time. If the actual parameters deviate significantly from the preset values, the system automatically pauses the test and issues an alarm to ensure accurate and reliable test results.
[0091] The environmental condition monitoring includes temperature and humidity monitoring and air pressure monitoring;
[0092] Temperature and humidity monitoring: Temperature and humidity sensors are installed around the test platform and inside the integrated environmental simulation unit to monitor the ambient temperature and humidity in real time and set the appropriate temperature and humidity range according to the test standards and requirements. During high-altitude simulation tests, air pressure monitoring uses air pressure sensors to monitor the ambient air pressure in real time and set the normal air pressure range.
[0093] As a specific embodiment, control thresholds for relative humidity and temperature in the test environment are set. When the temperature and humidity exceed the specified range, the environmental control equipment is adjusted in a timely manner to ensure a stable test environment. The air pressure at an altitude of 4000m is simulated. If the air pressure exceeds the range, the air pressure regulation module is adjusted in a timely manner to ensure that the test environment meets high-altitude conditions.
[0094] The safety status monitoring includes leakage current monitoring and grounding status monitoring.
[0095] During leakage current monitoring, a leakage current monitor is installed to monitor the leakage current of the test platform in real time and set a leakage current safety threshold. For grounding status monitoring, the grounding resistance of the test platform is monitored in real time. As a specific embodiment, if the leakage current exceeds 50mA during the power frequency withstand voltage test, it is considered a safety hazard. Once the leakage current exceeds the standard, the power supply is immediately cut off to avoid the risk of electric shock. The grounding resistance should be less than a preset value to ensure a good grounding state. If the grounding is poor, causing equipment failure or safety accidents, an alarm will be issued in time and measures will be taken to repair the grounding protection module.
[0096] The grounding protection module reliably grounds all metal casings of the test platform, the grounding terminals of the lightning arrester, etc., to prevent leakage from causing electric shock to personnel or damage to equipment;
[0097] The access control interlock module sets up an access control system at the entrance of the test area. Only authorized personnel can enter by swiping a card, fingerprint recognition or password input. The access control system is interlocked with the control system of the test platform. When the door is not closed or an unauthorized person enters, the control system automatically cuts off the high-voltage power supply and sounds an alarm;
[0098] The high-voltage insulation protection module is equipped with insulating partitions, insulating gloves, insulating mats and other protective facilities in the high-voltage equipment and test area. The insulation resistance of the insulating material should be high enough to withstand the maximum voltage that may occur during the test. Operators must wear insulating gloves and stand on insulating mats when performing high-voltage operations to ensure insulation safety between them and the high-voltage components.
[0099] The early warning prompt module is connected to each monitoring and control module of the test platform. When the monitored parameters exceed the normal range, such as excessive voltage, excessive current, excessive leakage current, abnormal temperature, etc., an alarm is immediately triggered. The alarm mode includes a piercing alarm sound and flashing light of the sound and light alarm, and a striking alarm message pops up on the interface of the control module to inform the operator of the specific abnormal location and cause;
