Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention discloses an evaluation method and apparatus for a single-ended grounding system of a smart grid based on multi-frequency injection, which relates to the field of smart grid technology. Background Technology

[0002] High-voltage cables are a crucial component of power systems, and their safe operation is essential for the reliability of power supply. In high-voltage cable systems, single-end grounding is a common grounding method, typically used for short-distance cable lines or connections between cables and overhead lines. In this grounding method, the cable's metallic sheath or shielding is grounded at only one end, while the other end remains insulated to prevent circulating currents and reduce energy loss.

[0003] However, the connection status of a single-ended grounding system can be affected by a variety of factors. For example, after long-term operation, the grounding terminals may loosen due to oxidation, corrosion, or mechanical vibration, leading to increased contact resistance; aging or damage to the cable insulation may cause partial discharge, thus affecting the performance of the grounding system; in addition, external damage, poor construction quality, and other factors may also lead to poor grounding system connections. If these problems are not detected and addressed in a timely manner, they may cause a series of serious consequences, such as overheating of the grounding system, insulation breakdown, or even power outages, threatening the safe and stable operation of the power system.

[0004] Currently, the main method for detecting the connection status of single-end grounding systems of high-voltage cables relies on periodic power outages. This method requires interrupting the power supply, which not only affects users' normal electricity use but also causes significant economic losses. Moreover, power outage detection only reflects the connection status at the moment of detection and cannot monitor changes in the cable's status during operation. In addition, while some live-line detection methods can be performed while the cable is running, they suffer from low detection accuracy and poor anti-interference capabilities, making it difficult to accurately determine the true connection status of the grounding system.
