Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of three-phase AC lightning arrester safety monitoring, and in particular to a three-phase AC lightning arrester failure monitoring method, device, equipment and medium. Background Art
[0002] As a key lightning protection device in power systems, varistors are widely used in the field of lightning protection due to their large current-carrying capacity, stable performance, and strong consistency. Their core function is to absorb transient overvoltage energy through their nonlinear volt-ampere characteristics, thereby protecting back-end equipment from damage caused by lightning strikes or operational overvoltages. However, during long-term operation, varistors will degrade due to repeated exposure to impact currents or environmental factors. The initial stage of degradation manifests as a gradual increase in resistive leakage current, which leads to an increase in device temperature rise. If degradation continues to develop, two serious consequences may occur: first, abnormal heating caused by leakage current may ignite the device or surrounding materials, creating a fire hazard; second, the clamping voltage characteristics of the varistor are significantly degraded, resulting in the failure of the lightning protection function and threatening the safe operation of the power system. Therefore, real-time monitoring of the degradation state of the varistor is crucial to ensuring the reliability of the lightning protection system.
[0003] Currently, the industry generally uses thermal trip devices as a means of protecting against varistor failure. This device detects temperature changes in the varistor and triggers a mechanical trip mechanism when the temperature exceeds a safety threshold, removing the degraded varistor from the circuit while simultaneously sending an alarm signal through an indicator window or communication interface. However, this type of solution has significant flaws: First, thermal tripping is a passive protection mechanism that only operates when the varistor has severely degraded or is nearing failure, providing no early warning. This puts the lightning protection system at risk of insufficient protection capabilities from the mid-stage of degradation to the stage before tripping. Second, after tripping, manual component replacement is required, resulting in delayed maintenance responses and potentially exacerbating system safety risks.
[0004] To overcome the above problems, some technical solutions attempt to predict degradation trends by monitoring the resistive leakage current of the varistor. Under normal operating conditions, the leakage current of the varistor is mainly capacitive, and its phase leads the applied phase voltage by about 90 degrees. As degradation worsens, the resistive leakage current component gradually increases, and the phase difference between the leakage current and the phase voltage decreases accordingly. By detecting changes in the phase difference, it is theoretically possible to identify risks before the varistor deteriorates seriously. However, existing implementation methods have significant limitations: for three-phase AC lightning protection systems, the phase angle of each phase voltage and leakage current needs to be measured separately, which requires independent voltage sensors and current sensors for each phase. For example, in a three-phase three-wire or four-wire system, three voltage sensors and three current sensors need to be deployed, resulting in high hardware costs, complex system wiring, and significantly increased difficulty in synchronously processing multi-channel signals. In addition, the increase in the number of sensors will introduce more failure points, reducing the overall reliability of the system.
[0005] In summary, existing varistor degradation monitoring solutions face a core contradiction: the passive nature of the thermal trip mechanism and the complexity of resistive leakage current detection. The former prevents preventive maintenance, while the latter, while capable of early identification of degradation, is limited by the high cost and low reliability of multi-sensor configurations, hindering large-scale engineering application. Therefore, a monitoring method that reduces hardware complexity while providing early warning of varistor degradation is urgently needed to improve the safety and cost-effectiveness of lightning protection systems. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The embodiments of the present invention provide a three-phase AC lightning arrester failure monitoring method, device, equipment and medium, aiming to provide a monitoring method that can reduce hardware complexity and achieve early warning of varistor degradation, thereby improving the safety and economy of the lightning protection system.

[0011] Determining whether a phase difference between a phase of a leakage current of the varistor and a phase voltage corresponding to the varistor is less than a preset phase difference threshold;
[0012] If the phase difference is less than the phase difference threshold, it is determined that the varistor has failed.
[0013] A further technical solution is that the phases of the leakage currents of the varistors of the three-phase AC lightning arrester are obtained respectively, including:
[0014] collecting a current signal of the leakage current of the varistor by a current sensor;
[0015] Perform an FFT operation on the current signal to determine the phase of the leakage current of the varistor.
[0016] A further technical solution is that the collecting of the phase of the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester includes:
[0017] The voltage sampling circuit collects a voltage signal of a phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester;
[0018] Perform an FFT operation on the voltage signal to determine the phase of the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester.
[0019] A further technical solution is that the three-phase AC lightning arrester is a 4P structured intelligent lightning arrester, wherein the voltage between the phase line and the neutral line of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester is used as the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester.
[0020] A further technical solution is that the phase of the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester is determined based on the phase of the phase voltage of the other two phases of the three-phase AC lightning arrester, including:
[0021] The phases of the phase voltages of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester are shifted by 120° and 240° respectively to obtain the phases of the phase voltages of the other two phases of the three-phase AC lightning arrester.
[0022] A further technical solution is that the phase difference threshold is 70-75°.
[0023] A further technical solution is that the voltage signal and the current signal are sampled using the same time window.
[0024] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a three-phase AC lightning arrester failure monitoring device, which includes a unit for executing the above method.
[0025] In a third aspect, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a computer device, which includes a memory and a processor, wherein a computer program is stored in the memory, and the processor implements the above method when executing the computer program.
[0026] In a fourth aspect, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a computer-readable storage medium, wherein the storage medium stores a computer program, and the computer program can implement the above method when executed by a processor.
[0027] The embodiment of the present invention provides a method, device, equipment and medium for monitoring the failure of a three-phase AC lightning arrester. The method includes: respectively obtaining the phase of the leakage current of the varistor of the three-phase AC lightning arrester; obtaining the phase of the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester; based on the phase of the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester, determining the phase of the phase voltage of the other two phases of the three-phase AC lightning arrester; judging whether the phase difference between the phase of the leakage current of the varistor and the phase of the phase voltage corresponding to the varistor is less than a preset phase difference threshold; if the phase difference is less than the phase difference threshold, determining that the varistor has failed. The present invention can reduce the hardware complexity of the three-phase AC lightning arrester, achieve early warning of varistor degradation, and significantly improve the safety and economy of the lightning protection system.
[0028] Specifically, the present invention obtains the phase of the three-phase varistor leakage current and the phase voltage of one phase, and derives the reference phase of the other two phases based on this phase voltage phase. Finally, the varistor failure is determined by comparing whether the phase difference between the leakage current and the corresponding phase voltage is below a preset threshold. The core technical benefits of this solution are reflected in the following aspects: First, by measuring only the single-phase voltage and using the fixed phase relationship of the three-phase voltages to generate the reference phase of the remaining two phases, the number of voltage sensors required in traditional solutions is significantly reduced from three to one, thereby significantly reducing hardware cost and system complexity. Second, the judgment logic based on the phase difference threshold can proactively identify early degradation trends of the varistor. Compared with the passive response mechanism of traditional thermal trip devices, it effectively avoids the degradation of lightning protection capabilities or the risk of fire caused by delayed maintenance. In addition, because the actual phase error of the three-phase power grid is typically less than 1°, far below the preset phase difference threshold, the reference phase generated by single-phase voltage phase simulation has sufficient accuracy to ensure the reliability of degradation judgment. The method proposed in the present invention combines algorithm optimization with hardware simplification, thereby improving the economy and practicality of the lightning protection system while ensuring monitoring accuracy.

[0041] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a three-phase AC lightning arrester provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The three-phase AC lightning arrester is a 4P structured three-phase intelligent lightning arrester suitable for TN-S systems. Figure 2 , Figure 2 This figure shows the structure of a three-phase AC lightning arrester according to another embodiment of the present invention. This three-phase AC lightning arrester is a 3+NPE intelligent lightning arrester suitable for TT systems. This article uses a 4P intelligent lightning arrester as an example to illustrate the implementation of a three-phase intelligent lightning arrester. The implementation principles and methods of a 3+NPE intelligent lightning arrester are essentially the same and will not be further elaborated in this invention.
[0042] See also Figure 1 The 4P structure three-phase intelligent lightning arrester includes a lightning arrester body 10, three current sensors (a first current sensor 20, a second current sensor 30 and a third current sensor 40), and a lightning arrester monitoring module 50.
[0043] The lightning arrester body 10 includes a first varistor 11, a second varistor 12, a third varistor 13 and a fourth varistor 14. The first varistor 11 is located between the phase line L1 and the ground line PE, the second varistor 12 is located between the phase line L2 and the ground line PE, the third varistor 13 is located between the phase line L3 and the ground line PE, and the fourth varistor 14 is located between the neutral line N and the ground line PE.
[0044] The first current sensor 20, the second current sensor 30, and the third current sensor 40 can be current transformers for measuring conductor current. Phase lines L1, L2, and L3 respectively pass through the first current sensor 20, the second current sensor 30, and the third current sensor 40 and are connected to the terminals of the first varistor 11, the second varistor 12, and the third varistor 13 of the lightning arrester. The current flowing through the first varistor 11, the second varistor 12, and the third varistor 13 can generate an induced voltage at the output of the current transformer that is linearly related to the leakage current. To reduce the number of cables, the output terminals of the first current sensor 20, the second current sensor 30, and the third current sensor 40 can share a common terminal as a reference output terminal. This reduces the number of cables connecting the three current sensors to the lightning arrester monitoring module 50 from six to four. These four cables input the three induced voltages into the lightning arrester monitoring module 50.
[0045] The lightning arrester monitoring module 50 consists of an AC / DC power conversion module 51, a first voltage-dividing resistor 52, a second voltage-dividing resistor 53, an isolation transformer 54, an amplifier and filter unit 55, and a single-chip microcomputer subsystem 56. The AC / DC power conversion module 51 is connected to the phase line L1 and the neutral line N, and is used to convert AC power into DC power to power the other components of the lightning arrester monitoring module 50. The first voltage-dividing resistor 52 and the second voltage-dividing resistor 53 are connected in series between the phase line L1 and the neutral line N to form a voltage-dividing circuit. The primary winding of the isolation transformer 54 is connected in parallel across the second voltage-dividing resistor 53, and the secondary winding outputs a sampled voltage, which is connected to the single-chip microcomputer subsystem 56 via the amplifier and filter unit 55. Each current sensor is connected to the single-chip microcomputer subsystem 56 via an amplifier and filter unit 55.
[0046] See also Figure 2 , suitable for TT system 3+NPE type intelligent lightning arrester and Figure 1 The difference of the 4P structure three-phase intelligent lightning arrester shown is that the neutral line N is connected to the ground line PE through the discharge tube 15.
[0047] Accordingly, see Figure 3 The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for monitoring failure of a three-phase AC lightning arrester. The method is applied to the three-phase AC lightning arrester provided in any of the above embodiments. The method includes the following steps:
[0048] S1, respectively obtaining the phases of the leakage currents of the varistors of the three-phase AC lightning arrester.
[0049] In a specific implementation, the leakage current of each varistor of the three-phase AC lightning arrester is collected respectively, and the phase of each leakage current is calculated accordingly.
[0050] For example, in a preferred embodiment, the above step S1 specifically includes: collecting a current signal of the leakage current of the varistor through a current sensor; and performing an FFT operation on the current signal to determine the phase of the leakage current of the varistor.
[0051] In a specific implementation, the current signal of the leakage current of the varistor is collected by a current sensor, and the current signal is input into an amplification and filtering unit for signal amplification and filtering processing, and then the current signal is subjected to FFT operation to determine the phase of the leakage current of the varistor.
[0052] The FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) is an efficient algorithm used to convert time-domain signals (time-varying signals, such as voltage or current waveforms) into frequency-domain signals (amplitude and phase information of different frequency components). In this embodiment of the present invention, the FFT is used to extract the fundamental phase of the current signal, that is, to obtain the phase of the leakage current.
[0053] In this embodiment, the leakage current signal is collected by a current sensor, and its phase information is extracted using FFT operation. The direct effect brought about by this technical feature is to improve the accuracy and anti-interference ability of phase detection. FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) can convert the time domain current signal into a frequency domain spectrum, accurately separate the fundamental component (such as 50 / 60Hz power frequency signal), and avoid the interference of high-frequency noise or harmonics on the phase calculation. Compared with the traditional time domain zero-crossing detection or simple filtering method, the FFT algorithm can accurately extract the fundamental phase and ensure the accuracy of the calculation of the leakage current and voltage phase difference. At the same time, the high efficiency of FFT makes it suitable for embedded systems (such as single-chip microcomputers) to meet real-time monitoring needs. In addition, the use of current sensors ensures non-invasive measurement, avoids changes to the original circuit structure, and enhances the engineering applicability of the solution.
[0054] S2: Obtain the phase of the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester.
[0055] In a specific implementation, the phase of the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester is obtained, which may be the phase of the phase voltage of any phase, and is not specifically limited in the present invention.
[0056] For example, in a preferred embodiment, the above step S2 specifically includes: collecting the voltage signal of the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester through a voltage sampling circuit; performing FFT operation on the voltage signal to determine the phase of the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester.
[0057] In a specific implementation, the voltage sampling circuit includes Figure 1-Figure 2 The first voltage-dividing resistor, the second voltage-dividing resistor and the isolation transformer are not specifically limited in the present invention.
[0058] A voltage sampling circuit collects a voltage signal of the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester; the voltage signal is input into an amplification and filtering unit for signal amplification and filtering, and then an FFT operation is performed on the voltage signal to determine the phase of the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester. The FFT operation is used to extract the fundamental phase of the voltage signal, that is, to obtain the phase of the phase voltage of one phase.
[0059] In this embodiment, the acquisition process of the single-phase voltage phase is clarified, including collecting the voltage signal through the voltage sampling circuit and extracting the phase using the FFT operation. Its technical effects are mainly reflected in two aspects: First, the design of the voltage sampling circuit (such as the voltage divider resistor and the isolation transformer) realizes the voltage reduction and electrical isolation of the high-voltage signal, which not only ensures the measurement safety but also avoids interference with the power supply network. Second, the application of FFT operation in voltage signal processing ensures the high-precision extraction of the fundamental phase. Since the voltage signal may contain harmonics or transient noise, FFT can effectively filter out non-power frequency components and extract a pure fundamental phase as a reference benchmark.
[0060] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present invention, when the three-phase AC lightning arrester is a 4P structured intelligent lightning arrester, the voltage between the phase line and the neutral line of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester is used as the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester.
[0061] In this embodiment, when the three-phase AC lightning arrester is a 4P structured intelligent lightning arrester, the voltage between the phase line and the neutral line (LN) is used as the phase voltage measurement benchmark. The core effect of this technical feature is to optimize the security of the voltage detection path. In the TN-S power supply system, the neutral line (N) and the protective ground line (PE) are connected together at the power supply end but are independent at the user end. Directly measuring the L-PE voltage may cause leakage current to flow into the ground network through the PE line due to equipment insulation defects, threatening the security of the power supply network. The use of LN voltage measurement can not only avoid the risk of PE line-related leakage current, but also because the LN and L-PE voltage amplitudes are similar (the phase difference can be ignored), it can be equivalent to replacing the traditional L-PE voltage detection, while ensuring the accuracy of the measurement and the compatibility of the system. In addition, this design reduces the dependence on the PE line, simplifies the wiring complexity of the lightning arrester monitoring module, and is particularly suitable for industrial scenarios that require strict grounding safety requirements.
[0062] In some preferred embodiments, the voltage signal and the current signal are sampled using the same time window.
[0063] Specifically, in power system monitoring, the phase relationship between voltage and current signals is extremely sensitive to time synchronization. If there is an offset in the sampling time windows of the two, it will directly lead to phase difference calculation deviation. Through strict synchronous sampling, the voltage and current signals are collected and processed at the same time, avoiding the introduction of phase errors due to sampling delays. In addition, synchronous sampling combined with the spectrum analysis characteristics of FFT can ensure the consistency of fundamental phase extraction, especially in scenarios with grid frequency fluctuations or harmonic interference, and can still maintain high-precision judgment. This design further improves the reliability and robustness of the degradation monitoring system through the coordinated optimization of hardware and algorithms.
[0064] S3 : Based on the phase of the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester, determine the phases of the phase voltages of the other two phases of the three-phase AC lightning arrester.
[0065] In a specific implementation, the phase difference between the three phases of the three-phase AC lightning arrester is fixed, and the phase difference between two adjacent phases is 120°. Therefore, the phase of the phase voltage of one phase of the three-phase AC lightning arrester is shifted by 120° and 240° respectively to obtain the phase of the phase voltage of the other two phases of the three-phase AC lightning arrester.
[0066] In a three-phase balanced system, the phase difference between the phase voltages strictly follows a 120° interval. Therefore, by performing a fixed-angle phase shift calculation based on the measured single-phase phase, the theoretical phase values of the remaining two phases can be simulated with extremely low error (usually less than 1°). Compared with the traditional solution of independently measuring the three-phase voltages, this method does not require additional voltage sensors and signal processing channels, significantly reducing hardware costs and wiring complexity. At the same time, because the actual phase fluctuations of the power grid are far smaller than the judgment threshold (such as the degradation threshold of 70-75°), the impact of the simulated phase error on the judgment result is negligible. This solution achieves the dual goals of system simplification and cost optimization by replacing hardware redundancy with algorithms.
[0067] S4, determining whether a phase difference between a phase of the leakage current of the varistor and a phase voltage corresponding to the varistor is smaller than a preset phase difference threshold.
[0068] In a specific implementation, a phase difference between a phase of a leakage current of the varistor and a phase voltage corresponding to the varistor is calculated, and it is determined whether the phase difference is less than a preset phase difference threshold.
[0069] If the phase difference is not less than a preset phase difference threshold, it is determined that the varistor is not failed.
[0070] In some preferred embodiments, the phase difference threshold is 70-75°.
[0071] In the normal state of the varistor, the leakage current is mainly composed of a capacitive component, and its phase leads the phase voltage by about 90°; as the degradation intensifies, the resistive component gradually increases, resulting in a gradual decrease in the phase difference. The inventors of the present application have found that when the phase difference drops to 70-75°, the clamping voltage characteristics of the varistor have significantly degraded, and the lightning protection performance cannot meet the requirements. Setting this threshold not only avoids misjudgments caused by a threshold that is too high (such as 80°), but also prevents missed judgments caused by a threshold that is too low (such as 60°), achieving a balance between safety and economy. In addition, the universal design of this threshold range is applicable to varistors of different brands or models, which enhances the versatility and engineering applicability of the solution.
[0072] S5: If the phase difference is less than the phase difference threshold, determine that the varistor is failed.
[0073] In a specific implementation, if the phase difference is smaller than the phase difference threshold, it is determined that the varistor has failed.
[0074] Furthermore, a replacement reminder can be issued to remind the user to replace the failed varistor, so that the varistor can be replaced in advance, ensuring safety.
[0075] An embodiment of the present invention proposes a method for monitoring the failure of a three-phase AC lightning arrester. This method obtains the phase of the leakage current of a three-phase varistor and the phase voltage of one phase, and derives the reference phase of the other two phases based on this phase voltage phase. Finally, the varistor failure is determined by comparing whether the phase difference between the leakage current and the corresponding phase voltage is below a preset threshold. The core technical benefits of this solution are reflected in the following aspects: First, by measuring only a single-phase voltage and using the fixed phase relationship of the three-phase voltages to generate the reference phase for the remaining two phases, the number of voltage sensors required in traditional solutions is significantly reduced from three to one, significantly reducing hardware cost and system complexity. Second, the judgment logic based on the phase difference threshold can proactively identify early degradation trends of the varistor. Compared to the passive response mechanism of traditional thermal trip devices, this effectively avoids the degradation of lightning protection capabilities or the risk of fire caused by delayed maintenance. Furthermore, because the actual phase error of a three-phase power grid is typically less than 1°, far below the preset phase difference threshold, the reference phase generated by single-phase voltage phase simulation is sufficiently accurate to ensure the reliability of degradation judgment. The method proposed in the present invention combines algorithm optimization with hardware simplification, thereby improving the economy and practicality of the lightning protection system while ensuring monitoring accuracy.
