Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention proposes a non-destructive testing device for internal mechanical defects of GIS using a pulsed laser and its working method, which relates to the field of condition monitoring technology for high-voltage power transmission and transformation equipment. Background Technology

[0002] GIS equipment condition monitoring devices are an important component of power systems, primarily used to detect and diagnose internal mechanical defects in GIS equipment, such as cracks and corrosion. These defects can lead to equipment failures or even safety accidents, making non-destructive testing of internal mechanical defects in GIS equipment of great significance.

[0003] Currently, traditional methods for detecting internal defects in GIS typically rely on periodic disassembly and inspection. This method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but also carries a high risk, potentially leading to further damage to the equipment. Traditional GIS internal defect detection methods require complex sensors and instruments, and necessitate professional data analysis and diagnosis. Existing technologies for GIS internal defect detection suffer from the following problems: 1. High cost: Traditional condition monitoring methods require a large number of specialized equipment and instruments, resulting in high monitoring costs. Furthermore, the large number of GIS systems requiring monitoring increases investment and maintenance costs. 2. Low efficiency: Traditional monitoring methods require manual data collection, analysis, and diagnosis, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Manual processing is inefficient and makes it difficult to detect anomalies promptly. 3. Delayed response: Traditional methods are mainly based on offline monitoring, i.e., periodically collecting sample data for analysis. This means that if anomalies occur between two sampling periods, they cannot be detected and addressed in a timely manner, potentially leading to serious consequences. 4. Destructive to equipment: Some traditional detection methods may require disassembling the equipment for inspection, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but also carries the risk of damaging the equipment.
