Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of on-line monitoring of electrical equipment insulation, in particular to a method and system for on-line measurement of 6kV plant insulation. BACKGROUND

[0002] The 6kV plant distribution system generally adopts neutral point small resistance grounding mode to balance the fault current control and protection selectivity in single-phase grounding. The insulation measurement in service depends on offline test during power failure or indirect estimation through operation measurement. The existing on-line monitoring device usually takes the busbar as a whole, which is difficult to distinguish the insulation changes of the feeder and the key equipment level under the condition of not stopping power, and is sensitive to weather, humidity, load fluctuation and segment switching, resulting in value fluctuation and false alarm.

[0003] State maintenance and risk pre-disposal require on-line, accurate and traceable insulation measurement capability. The trend focuses on three aspects: first, under the premise of not changing the primary wiring and operation mode, a controllable detection signal is safely injected and electromagnetically decoupled with the voltage mutual inductance loop; second, a micro-level leakage response is measured to build an integrated measurement scale for system, feeder and equipment levels; third, the working condition and environmental self-adaptive processing are introduced to form a unified evaluation result comparable across substations for early warning and maintenance decision support.

[0004] The existing scheme has common deficiencies: the detection channel is coupled with the neutral point grounding and the voltage mutual inductance loop, the on-line injection is limited; the micro-DC leakage signal has insufficient resolution in complex field background; only the equivalent index of the busbar is given, which is difficult to locate to the feeder and equipment; there is a lack of self-adaptive reduction of meteorological and working condition disturbance, and the evaluation result has insufficient stability; the threshold setting lacks a unified scale, and it is difficult to migrate across substations.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of the present application.

[0060] The purpose of the present application is to provide a method and system for on-line measurement of 6kV insulation, which realizes real-time monitoring and intelligent diagnosis of the insulation characteristics of the 6kV power system, can accurately identify the insulation degradation state and issue an early warning, promotes the transition from passive repair to predictive management of equipment maintenance, and improves the safety and reliability of system operation.

[0061] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more apparent and easy to understand, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0062] Figure 1 The method flow chart provided for the embodiments of the present application is as shown in Figure 1 The present application provides a method for on-line measurement of 6kV insulation, which comprises:

[0063] Step 100: configuring a parallel isolated micro-pulse injection unit at the neutral point side of the 6kV power system, injecting a pseudo-random micro-pulse sequence with polarity reversal into the primary circuit of the 6kV power system with voltage zero-crossing as the time window, and recording the injected signal and the response signal with a synchronous clock to obtain a zero-crossing synchronization reference sequence and an initial response sequence;

[0064] Step 200: performing differential gating sampling based on three-phase phase as a reference, generating a self-calibration decoupling operator using planned closing and load transition, and implementing voltage mutual inductance loop and protection quantity coupling suppression processing on the initial response sequence to obtain a decoupling response sequence;

[0065] Step 300: According to the one-time system topology, the reachability matrix and branch sensitivity core are established, the joint frequency domain and time domain sparse regression analysis is carried out on the decoupling response sequence, the device level polarization time constant, leakage admittance and dielectric loss angle slice are identified, the device parameter vector and the position mapping of the device parameter vector are formed;

[0066] Step 400: A hierarchical Bayesian estimation model is constructed for the device parameter vector, the insulation barrier decay rate and health index are calculated, and the confidence interval is given, and the device level evaluation result is obtained;

[0067] Step 500: The device level evaluation result is correspondingly associated according to the position mapping, the device object with abnormal insulation performance is determined, and the advance warning information and state maintenance instruction of the device are output.

[0068] Specifically, in step 100 of the embodiment, a micro pulse injection unit is arranged at the neutral point side of the 6kV power system, which is electrically isolated from the primary circuit through an isolation medium, a zero-crossing synchronization reference is established on the basis of continuous monitoring of the power frequency voltage, and a group of short-time pulses with alternating polarity is aligned with the reference within the window. To ensure safe injection and protection device stability, the pulse amplitude is limited to within 2% of the rated phase voltage, preferably 1%; the duration of a single pulse is controlled between 200 microseconds and 2 milliseconds, preferably 500 microseconds; the time interval between adjacent pulses is set between 20 milliseconds and 200 milliseconds, preferably 20 milliseconds consistent with a power frequency cycle; the polarity of adjacent pulses strictly alternates, with a polarity ratio of 1 to 1. Under the above time constraints, the injection window is opened at the zero-crossing instant and the injection signal output by the micro pulse injection unit is recorded synchronously, forming an injection signal record, while the injection energy density is controlled to be below 1 millijoule per phase per injection, preferably below 0.3 millijoule, to ensure that the impact of injection on the primary circuit is controlled.

[0069] Under the same synchronous clock, the voltage and current changes of the primary circuit caused by the injection sequence are collected at the predetermined measurement point to form a response signal, and the out-of-window components are suppressed by gated sampling to obtain a response signal record. To improve the time registration accuracy, the zero-crossing synchronization error is controlled to be within 200 microseconds, preferably within 100 microseconds; the gated time window is set as a symmetric interval around the zero-crossing point with a width of 1-5 milliseconds before and after, preferably 2 milliseconds each; the sampling frequency is not less than 20 kHz, preferably 50 kHz. Then, the injection signal record and the response signal record are time-registered according to the zero-crossing synchronization reference, and the two types of records are aligned to the same time axis, only the in-window segments corresponding to the pulses are extracted, and finally the zero-crossing synchronization reference sequence and the initial response sequence are obtained, providing high signal-to-noise ratio and high time consistency input data for subsequent decoupling processing and parameter identification.

[0070] Optionally, in step 200 of the embodiment, after obtaining the initial response sequence, a phase alignment reference is established with the phases of the three-phase voltage as the unified reference. By detecting the phase difference of the three-phase voltage zero-crossing points and correcting the phase synchronization, the phases are made to be at the equivalent time point at the zero-crossing moment, so as to eliminate the sampling deviation among the phases. On this basis, a symmetric gating time window is constructed around the zero-crossing moment, and a pairing relationship corresponding to each phase is determined, so as to ensure the one-to-one correspondence of the three-phase data in the time domain and the phase at the time of differential gating sampling. The gating time window is preferably set to an interval of 2 milliseconds before and after the zero-crossing point, and the overall time symmetry error is not more than 100 microseconds, so as to ensure that the sampling window covers the main components of the polarization response and avoids external noise interference.

[0071] In the process of planned switching-on or load transition, the embodiment uses the transient event as a natural excitation trigger source, extracts the time slices before and after the transition from the initial response sequence and forms a differential observation pair. The differential observation pair is used to represent the response change of the same branch caused by the working condition disturbance in a short time, and can reflect the coupling characteristics between the voltage mutual inductance loop and the protection quantity signal. By comparing the amplitude change and phase drift of the slices before and after the transition, the embodiment extracts the response increment reflecting the coupling channel characteristics, and provides input data for subsequent self-calibration decoupling operator parameter calculation. The typical transition time is not more than 10 milliseconds, and the sampling frequency is maintained at 50 kHz, so as to ensure that the time resolution of the differential slices is sufficient.

[0072] After obtaining the differential observation pair, the embodiment calculates the transfer characteristics of the voltage mutual inductance loop coupling and the protection quantity coupling according to the relative change ratio, phase delay and correlation degree information of the voltage and current in the observation pair, and determines the parameter set of the self-calibration decoupling operator. The parameter set is used to describe the amplitude correlation and dynamic response of various coupling channels in the system, and on this basis, the initial response sequence is subjected to decoupling operation to filter out the interference components from the mutual inductor coupling and protection channel feedback, so as to obtain a high-purity decoupled response sequence. The signal-to-noise ratio of the response sequence after decoupling is improved by 3 to 5 times, and the phase jitter is less than 0.5 degrees, which provides a stable and reliable input for subsequent frequency domain analysis and parameter identification.

[0073] Further, in step 300 of the embodiment, firstly, according to the actual wiring of the primary circuit and the switch position, a "reachable matrix" is defined as a set of structural constraints for describing the electrical connection relationship and the open state, wherein the on-off relationship of each feeder, bus section and branch is corresponded to the judgment rule of whether the connection path exists in the binary state. By reading the current positions of the disconnectors, circuit breakers and contactors, the reachable matrix corresponding to the current time is generated; when the operation mode changes (for example, the bus tie switch is switched from split-column to parallel-column or a feeder is removed for maintenance), the reachable matrix is immediately reconstructed, so that the subsequent analysis is always consistent with the actual electrical channel of the primary system, and the change time is marked for time sequence management to avoid data confusion under different operation modes.

[0074] At the branch level, the embodiment establishes a "branch sensitivity kernel" for representing the contribution intensity and phase characteristics of each branch to the decoupling response. The composition of the branch sensitivity kernel is based on known or estimable parameters such as branch ground admittance, dielectric loss characteristics and geometric distribution. Type values are given for similar equipment through field archives and existing measurements, and the dimensions of different sections are scaled uniformly to make the response contributions of each branch in the same evaluation window comparable. To improve robustness, the branch sensitivity kernel sets a minimum identifiable threshold for low-contribution branches and a saturation upper limit for high-contribution branches to ensure that subsequent regression is not dominated by extreme weights.

[0075] Under the joint constraints of the reachable matrix and the branch sensitivity kernel, the embodiment implements joint frequency-domain and time-domain sparse regression on the decoupling response sequence. The frequency-domain focuses on the amplitude and phase mode of the fundamental and several characteristic frequency bands, reflecting the frequency band selectivity of the dielectric loss angle slice; the time-domain focuses on the slow decay pattern of the polarization and depolarization process, reflecting the distribution of the polarization time constant. The embodiment takes the equipment as the minimum merging unit, constrains the parameters within the same equipment to be consistent, and suppresses the parameter leakage across equipment, thereby directly obtaining the estimated values of the equipment-level polarization time constant, the estimated values of the leakage admittance and the estimated values of the dielectric loss angle slice, and retaining the estimation residual and the constraint satisfaction degree as quality indicators.

[0076] To ensure the usability and verifiability of the parameter results, the embodiment performs stability test and residual consistency test on the above-mentioned estimated values in multiple adjacent time windows: when the parameter fluctuation of the same equipment in adjacent windows is below a preset threshold and the residual distribution does not show systematic deviation, the parameter estimation of the equipment is confirmed to be valid; when the operation mode changes, only the parameters that satisfy the consistency condition before and after the change are included in the equipment parameter vector. Finally, the parameter estimates of each equipment are summarized according to the equipment number and installation position to form the equipment parameter vector, and a position mapping is established for precise pointing of subsequent evaluation, early warning and maintenance instructions.

[0077] Further, in the processing of the decoupling response sequence, the embodiment first constructs a joint dictionary containing both frequency domain and time domain characteristics according to the branch sensitivity kernel. The frequency domain part selects the fundamental wave and multiple characteristic frequency bands as the amplitude and phase analysis base, typically including the fundamental wave, the 3rd, 5th and 7th frequency bands; the time domain part selects multiple exponential decay prototypes as the polarization response base, typically 64 in number, with the corresponding time constants discretely distributed between 1 millisecond and 200 milliseconds. To ensure the stability and physical reasonableness of the regression calculation, the confidence weight of the observation sample is distributed between 0.6 and 1.0, and is dynamically adjusted according to the steady state degree of device operation; the initial value of the regularization strength is between 0.001 and 0.01, and is automatically fine-tuned according to the data sparsity in subsequent calculations.

[0078] Under the joint constraint of the joint dictionary and the reachable matrix, sparse regression is performed on the observation data composed of the decoupling response sequence. To ensure clear physical meaning, the embodiment groups multiple base coefficients of the same device on the same physical quantity as a minimum constraint unit, and maintains consistency within the group during the solving process, thereby avoiding parameter leakage across devices or across physical quantities. Through this method, amplitude and phase characteristics related to dielectric loss can be extracted in the frequency domain, and slow decay characteristics related to the polarization process can be extracted in the time domain, ultimately obtaining three types of estimation results of device-level polarization time constant, leakage admittance and dielectric loss angle slice.

[0079] The embodiment further aggregates the parameter groups obtained by regression according to the device number, and establishes a parameter mapping relationship based on the installation location, thereby forming a complete device parameter vector. Field tests show that the typical results of the polarization time constant are concentrated in the 5 millisecond to 100 millisecond interval, the order of magnitude of the leakage admittance is about 1 x 10 -5 to 5 x 10 -4 The calculation result of the dielectric loss angle slice is about 0.002 to 0.010. It runs stably under the condition that the sample number is 200 to 500 and the joint base number is 120 to 180, and the calculation residual variance does not exceed 3%, which can effectively reflect the insulation difference and dielectric characteristics of each device, and provide accurate physical parameter basis for subsequent health assessment and trend warning.

[0080] Specifically, in step 400 of the embodiment, the device parameter vector composed of the three estimated values of the device-level polarization time constant, leakage admittance and dielectric loss angle slice is taken as the observation quantity, and statistical estimation is performed under a hierarchical Bayesian model. First, the historical measurement results of the same type of device are taken as the group prior, and the posterior statistics of the device type layer are obtained through iterative convergence, which are used to represent the parameter distribution law of the device under actual operating conditions. Then, the observed parameters of each device are compared with the posterior statistics of the type layer to calculate the deviation of each device in the group distribution, thereby describing the difference of the individual device relative to the average level of the type. The posterior statistics include the posterior mean and the posterior covariance of the device type layer, which together constitute a quantitative expression of the uncertainty of the insulation state.

[0081] After obtaining the posterior statistics, the embodiment determines the relative position of the device in the group distribution by calculating the multi-dimensional deviation between the observed parameters and the posterior mean, combined with the correlation between parameters reflected by the posterior covariance. The smaller the deviation, the higher the consistency of the insulation state of the device with the same type of device; the larger the deviation, the more obvious the insulation performance of the device decays. In order to facilitate engineering interpretation, the embodiment maps the deviation to a health index and an insulation potential barrier decay rate, wherein the health index varies between 0 and 1, and the value closer to 1 indicates a healthier insulation state; the insulation potential barrier decay rate is equal to 1 minus the health index, which is used to intuitively reflect the degree of insulation degradation. For example, when the health index is greater than 0.8, the device is determined to be in a normal state; when the health index is between 0.3 and 0.8, it is determined to be slightly degraded; when the health index is less than 0.3, it is determined to be significantly degraded, and state maintenance needs to be arranged.

[0082] To reflect the uncertainty of the model, the embodiment calculates the confidence interval of the health index according to the hierarchical Bayesian posterior distribution, and determines the upper and lower limits by using the quantile of the non-central chi-square distribution. In a typical case, when the parameter dimension is 3 and the significance level is 0.05, the 95% confidence interval of the health index can be calculated by the quantile. When the Mahalanobis distance square is less than about 2.4, the health index is greater than 0.3, which can be considered as a normal fluctuation range; when the Mahalanobis distance square is between 5 and 9, the health index is about 0.08 to 0.01, corresponding to a warning state; when the Mahalanobis distance square exceeds 11, the health index is less than 0.01, corresponding to a serious degradation state, at this time the insulation potential barrier decay rate is close to 1, and the system automatically outputs a state maintenance instruction. The confidence interval mechanism ensures the robustness and statistical repeatability of the evaluation results, and provides a quantifiable basis for device health classification and risk prediction.

[0083] Optionally, in step 500 of this embodiment, after obtaining the device-level evaluation results, the evaluation results of each device are first mapped to its corresponding number and installation location based on the location mapping, generating a device-level evaluation list. Location mapping is used to establish the correlation between the evaluation results and the physical location of the devices, ensuring that health indices, insulation barrier decay rates, and their confidence intervals can be accurately mapped to specific devices. Through this mapping, devices exhibiting abnormalities can be quickly located during system operation, ensuring that the source and unique attribution of each parameter are clear.

[0084] Subsequently, this embodiment uses the health index and insulation barrier decay rate as the main judgment criteria, combined with the changing trends within the confidence interval and sliding time window, to classify the insulation status of the equipment. The classification judgment adopts a multi-time period trend verification method, that is, comparing the rate and direction of change of the health index within adjacent time windows. When the index shows a continuous decline or fluctuations exceeding the confidence interval, the abnormality level of the equipment is determined. The abnormality levels are divided into three categories: normal, slightly abnormal, and severely abnormal, with corresponding health index thresholds greater than 0.8, between 0.3 and 0.8, and below 0.3, respectively, reflecting different stages of insulation degradation.

[0085] For equipment identified as abnormal, this embodiment generates an early warning message, including the equipment number, installation location, triggering criteria, and verification item instructions. The triggering criteria specify the main data characteristics leading to the abnormality determination, such as a continuous decline in the health index exceeding two time windows or an insulation barrier decay rate higher than 0.7. The verification item instructions include the types of parameters that should be retested, such as leakage admittance or dielectric loss angle slices, and specify the voltage level and ambient temperature range to be maintained during retesting to ensure the comparability of measurement results. The early warning message serves to remind maintenance personnel to conduct targeted testing and data verification while the system is running.

[0086] Based on the early warning results, this embodiment generates a condition-based maintenance instruction. This instruction includes maintenance timing instructions, retesting items and time windows, operating mode adjustment instructions, and patrol schedule arrangements. Maintenance timing is determined based on the anomaly level; equipment with minor anomalies requires retesting within 7 days, while equipment with severe anomalies requires retesting within 24 hours and a power outage inspection. Retesting items and time windows ensure the stability of diagnostic results. The operating mode adjustment instruction limits equipment load to 80% of rated power during retesting. Patrol schedules stipulate that data updates must be performed at least once every 48 hours until the anomaly is resolved. Through these steps, a continuous closed-loop process from equipment parameter assessment to early warning and maintenance is achieved, enabling insulation anomalies to be identified in advance and addressed within a controllable timeframe.
