Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of grounding system technology, and in particular to a method and system for grounding system continuity testing using surface magnetic field vector imaging. Background Technology
[0002] The grounding grid is a concealed underground engineering structure that plays a vital protective role in the power system. During normal operation, the grounding grid clamps overvoltages on the metal casings of equipment and conducts fault currents to the earth, ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment. However, the bare metal conductors of the grounding grid are subject to long-term soil corrosion, posing a risk of failure. Therefore, a continuity test is conducted annually within the power system to analyze the continuity resistance between the downleads and assess the operating status of the grounding grid. However, the continuity resistance measurement method only obtains the resistance value between the downleads and cannot reflect the specific condition of the underground conductors.
[0003] Existing continuity resistance tests cannot determine the specific burial depth of the grounding grid or the test current passing through each branch conductor. In addition, once a problem is found in the continuity test, the grounding grid needs to be excavated for inspection. However, the current excavation is done blindly, and the specific location of the grounding grid is not clear on site. Therefore, there are problems of blindness and excessive workload.
