[0018] Embodiments of this application provide a portable high-voltage field testing device 10, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the field testing device 10 includes: an equalizing ring 100, a high-voltage arm 210, a low-voltage arm 220, a grounding component 300, a control component 400, and a housing 500. The equalizing ring 100 is used to connect to the circuit under test. The two ends of the high-voltage arm 210 are detachably connected to one end of the equalizing ring 100 and one end of the low-voltage arm 220, respectively. The grounding component 300 is located at the other end of the low-voltage arm 220. The control component 400 is detachably connected to the low-voltage arm 220. The control component 400 includes a detection module and a calculation module. The detection module is used to obtain the low voltage of the low-voltage arm 220. The calculation module is used to determine the high voltage of the circuit under test based on the low voltage. The high voltage is used to verify the withstand voltage test voltage. The housing 500 is used to house the separated equalizing ring 100, high-voltage arm 210, low-voltage arm 220, and control component 400.

[0019] In this embodiment, the field testing device 10 can be used for high-voltage power equipment with voltages of 100,000 volts or higher. An equalizing ring 100 is connected to the circuit under test. A high-voltage arm 210 and a low-voltage arm 220 extend vertically and are coaxially arranged. The two ends of the high-voltage arm 210 are connected to the tops of the equalizing ring 100 and the low-voltage arm 220. A grounding component 300, which can be a grounding screw, is provided at the bottom of the low-voltage arm 220. The grounding component 300 is connected to the earth, allowing the circuit under test to form a loop with the earth through the equalizing ring 100, the high-voltage arm 210, and the low-voltage arm 220.

[0020] The high-voltage arm 210 and the low-voltage arm 220 form a series voltage divider circuit. The high voltage of the circuit under test is introduced through the voltage equalization ring 100 and distributed across the high-voltage arm 210 and the low-voltage arm 220 according to their impedance ratios. The detection module of the control component 400 measures the low voltage of the low-voltage arm 220, and the calculation module, based on the voltage divider principle, inversely calculates the voltage U1 of the circuit under test as follows: U1 = U2 × (Z1 + Z2) / Z2; or U1 = U2 × (R1 + R2) / R2; The impedance Z2 and resistance R2 of the low-voltage arm 220, and the impedance Z1 and resistance R1 of the high-voltage arm 210 are fixed preset parameters. The low voltage U2 of the low-voltage arm 220 is measured by the detection module. The control component 400 calculates the voltage through a voltage divider circuit to determine the high voltage of the circuit under test, thereby realizing the on-site verification of the high voltage. The high voltage is used to verify the withstand voltage test voltage, and the withstand voltage test can be a series frequency conversion resonant withstand voltage test.

[0021] The equalizing ring 100, high-pressure arm 210, low-pressure arm 220, and control component 400 are all detachably connected. For example, the high-pressure arm 210 and low-pressure arm 220 are connected by flanges and bolts. The housing 500 has multiple mounting slots. After the field inspection device 10 finishes inspection, the operator can disassemble the equalizing ring 100, high-pressure arm 210, low-pressure arm 220, and control component 400 and place them into the mounting slots for easy storage and transport of the field inspection device 10. For example, the housing 500 is made of aluminum alloy for easy on-site transport.

[0022] The field testing device 10 of this application combines portability and testing functionality, effectively monitoring the accuracy of high voltage in on-site AC withstand voltage tests. This ensures the accuracy of the withstand voltage test, improves the technical means of monitoring on-site test voltage, reduces safety hazards caused by inadequate implementation of procedures, and enhances power supply safety. Furthermore, compared to traditional indoor fixed-site high-voltage testing equipment, the flexibly detachable field testing device 10 can be used in various on-site testing environments, expanding its applicability.

[0023] In some embodiments provided in this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the testing device 10 also includes a support 610, which includes an upper seat and a lower seat that are rotatably connected. The upper seat is rotatable relative to the lower seat about a vertical axis and is detachably connected to the low-pressure arm 220.

[0024] In this embodiment, a support structure for the field inspection device 10 is provided. The upper seat of the support 610 is detachably connected to the bottom of the low-pressure arm 220, and the lower seat is installed on the field mounting surface, which can be the ground or a workbench. The support 610 provides support for the low-pressure arm 220 and the high-pressure arm 210, providing a stable installation environment for the low-pressure arm 220. The upper and lower seats are movably connected, allowing the upper seat to rotate 360° around the vertical axis in the horizontal direction. This allows the support 610 to adjust the angles of the low-pressure arm 220 and the high-pressure arm 210 to adapt to different field installation environments, thus improving the field adaptability of the inspection device 10.

[0025] For example, the bottom of the support is provided with an anti-slip rubber pad to improve the stability of the support 610 in windy conditions and enhance the support 610's ability to cope with complex on-site environments.

[0026] In one possible embodiment, the support 610 is an integral structure, and the support 610 can be a housing 500 to improve the utilization efficiency of the housing 500 and simplify the structure of the inspection device 10.

[0027] In some embodiments provided in this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the testing device 10 also includes: a support member 620, which is detachably connected to the bottom of the low-pressure arm 220. Multiple support members 620 are arranged around the low-pressure arm 220 in the circumferential direction. The support member 620 is connected to the support 610. The height of any support member 620 is adjustable.

[0028] In this embodiment, a support structure for the testing device 10 is further provided. The two ends of the support member 620 are detachably connected to the bottom of the low-pressure arm 220 and the support 610, respectively. Specifically, the support member 620 can be located on the top surface of the upper seat, and the housing 500 can accommodate the separated support member 620. The support member 620 can be vertically adjusted to change its connection position with the support 610, thereby adjusting its height. The height adjustment range of the support member 620 is 0cm to 5cm. For example, the support member 620 is bolted to the upper seat. The operator can adjust the bolt connection depth by rotating the bolt, thereby controlling the height of the support member 620. Multiple support members 620 surround the outer periphery of the low-pressure arm 220. By adjusting the height of the support members 620 at different positions, the operator can level the testing device 10 on-site, enabling the testing device 10 to adapt to uneven ground and preventing pressure distribution errors caused by tilting of the testing device 10.

[0029] In some embodiments provided in this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the inspection device 10 also includes a horizontal indicator 700, which is disposed on the outer wall of the low-pressure arm 220 and is used to indicate whether the low-pressure arm 220 is in a horizontal state.

[0030] In this embodiment, a horizontal indicator 700 is provided on the side wall of the low-pressure arm 220. The horizontal indicator 700 can be a spirit level or a water level bubble. The horizontal indicator 700 is fixed to the outer wall of the low-pressure arm 220 by adhesive bonding screws. The horizontal indicator 700 can indicate whether the low-pressure arm 220 is in a horizontal state, making the judgment of the placement state of the inspection device 10 more accurate. This allows the operator to perform leveling operations based on the indication result of the horizontal indicator 700, ensuring that the inspection device 10 is in a stable state and improving the adaptability of the inspection device 10 to the on-site working environment.

[0031] In some embodiments provided in this application, the operating frequency of the control component 400 is 20Hz to 300Hz.

[0032] In this embodiment, the operating frequency of the field testing device 10 is provided. Compared to the 50Hz power frequency of traditional high-voltage testing devices designed for high-voltage test chambers, the control component 400 can meet the frequency range requirements of 20Hz to 300Hz for series frequency conversion resonant withstand voltage tests, making the field testing device 10 applicable to a wide frequency range and meeting the actual needs of field testing.

[0033] In some embodiments provided in this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the testing device 10 also includes a leakage current detection element 800, which is connected in series between the grounding element 300 and the low-voltage arm 220. The control component 400 also includes an alarm module, which sends an alarm signal when the leakage current detection element 800 detects a leakage current, or when the data of the control component 400 is in an over-limit state. The alarm signal includes an audible signal and a visual signal.

[0034] In this embodiment, an alarm function is provided for the testing device 10. The leakage current detection element 800 can be a leakage current sensor, connected in series between the grounding element 300 and the low-voltage arm 220, and used to detect the grounding loop current to determine if there is a leakage in the grounding loop. When the device experiences a leakage (grounding current > 10mA), or when the data is in an over-limit state, the alarm module is triggered to remind the operator to investigate promptly. The alarm signal includes both audible and visual signals to enhance the warning effect. The alarm module can be a buzzer and a red LED light.

[0035] For example, an over-limit condition can be a measured high voltage deviation exceeding ±2%, or a grounding resistance greater than 10Ω. The deviation is the difference between the measured high voltage and the actual voltage value of the circuit under test. When the absolute value of this difference exceeds ±2% of the actual voltage, it is considered an over-limit condition. The grounding resistance is the grounding loop resistance of the grounding component 300 itself, specifically referring to the equivalent resistance formed between the grounding component 300 and the earth. When the grounding resistance is too high, the discharge capacity of the grounding loop decreases, making it unable to quickly conduct away possible leakage current or induced charge, easily causing the equipment casing to become electrified, posing a risk of electric shock.

[0036] In some embodiments provided in this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the control assembly 400 also includes a cable 410 and an emergency stop module. The cable 410 is connected to the low-voltage arm 220, and the emergency stop module is connected in series with the cable 410. The emergency stop module is used to cut off the measurement circuit of the cable 410.

[0037] In this embodiment, the low-voltage arm 220 is equipped with a voltage divider output socket 221, and the cable 410 is connected to the voltage divider output socket 221. The emergency stop module can be an emergency stop button, for example, a red mushroom-shaped button. The emergency stop module is connected to the main control measurement circuit of the control component 400 via the cable 410. When the inspection device 10 is in a risky state, the emergency stop module can cut off the signal circuit of the cable 410 with one button, reducing the risk of electric shock to the operator.

[0038] For example, the control component 400 also includes a storage module, which can be an SD card. The storage module is used to store data such as test voltage values, time, and grounding resistance recorded by the control component 400, and supports continuous storage of more than 1000 sets. The control component 400 also includes an expansion module 440, which enables charging or data export through a connection interface, which can be a USB or Type-C interface.

[0039] In some embodiments provided in this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the control component 400 also includes a display module 420 and a housing 430. The display module 420 is used to display the data and alarm signals of the control component 400. At least part of the display module 420 and the emergency stop module are exposed on the same side wall of the housing 430.

[0040] In this embodiment, the display module 420 can be a display screen, capable of displaying data and alarm signals. The data includes detection data, waveforms, and calculation results processed by the control component 400, enabling operators to clearly and intuitively grasp data information and alarm intelligence. The detection module, calculation module, alarm module, and wireless transmission module are housed within the housing 430, with at least a portion of the display module 420 and the emergency stop module exposed on the same side wall of the housing 430. This allows operators to immediately trigger the adjacent emergency stop module upon discovering an alarm intelligence displayed on the display module 420, promptly interrupting device operation and improving emergency stop efficiency.

[0041] For example, the control component 400 also includes an alarm reset button to deactivate the alarm state of the control component 400.

[0042] In some embodiments provided in this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the testing device 10 also includes a power supply unit 900, which is connected to the control component 400. The power supply unit 900 is used to provide power to the control component 400, and includes a battery and a solar charging panel.

[0043] In this embodiment, a power supply method for the field inspection device 10 is provided. The control component 400 obtains power through a battery and a solar charging panel. The battery can be a lithium battery, which provides energy assurance for the field service of the control component 400, enabling the field inspection device 10 to adapt to environments without power. The solar charging panel uses a flexible monocrystalline silicon solar panel, which can supplement the battery for 2 to 3 hours on a sunny day, solving the battery life problem in scenarios without power. This dual power supply provides strong power support for field inspection, making the field inspection device 10 suitable for remote outdoor inspection scenarios.

[0044] In some embodiments provided in this application, the control component 400 further includes a wireless transmission module, which communicates with an external terminal via a wireless network.

[0045] In this embodiment, a wireless connection method for the control component 400 is provided. The wireless transmission module connects to an external terminal via a wireless network, including a mobile phone, computer, or tablet. This allows data from the control component 400 to be synchronized to the external terminal wirelessly, extending the connection distance, improving communication convenience, and avoiding the safety risks caused by plugging and unplugging data cables on-site. For example, the wireless transmission module can be a Bluetooth 4.0 module.
