[0004] When the power line is out of service for maintenance, technical measures must be taken to ensure the safety of the workers, that is, a grounding wire is installed on each side where power may come from, which serves to protect the work site from being at "ground potential" at all times. At the same time, it can also prevent the harm of residual charge and induced charge to the human body.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0023] A preferred embodiment of the high-voltage power grid power outage maintenance grounding protection system of the present invention, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the system includes an intelligent grounding pile module, which includes a grounding pile control host, a grounding pile body, a depth self-testing unit, a soil resistance detection unit, and a positioning unit. The depth self-test unit is configured to detect the depth of the grounding stake body inserted into the ground and compare it with a preset standard. Specifically, the depth self-test unit uses the rotation angle and torque feedback of the grounding stake body to detect the depth in the initial stage. This can prevent the system from spinning idly and deceiving the system by faking rotation insertion, and further ensure the safety of operation. The soil resistance detection unit is configured to measure the resistance between the grounding stake and the ground. The positioning unit is configured to obtain the geographical coordinates of the grounding stake; The high-voltage power grid outage maintenance grounding protection system also includes a control module, which is communicatively connected to the grounding pile control host of the intelligent grounding pile module. The control module is configured as follows: Receive geographic location coordinates and match and verify them with the preset maintenance area; And when both the depth and resistance value meet the preset standards, a grounding completion signal is generated; And when the depth or resistance value is not up to standard, an alarm is triggered and subsequent operation permissions are locked; Furthermore, the high-voltage power grid outage maintenance grounding protection system also includes a ground clearance detection unit, which is configured to be bound to the operator after the grounding operation is completed and to monitor the operator's ground clearance in real time. The high-voltage power grid outage maintenance grounding protection system also includes a safety interlocking unit, which is configured as follows: Upon receiving the grounding completion signal, the ground clearance detection unit is unlocked; Based on the data returned by the ground clearance detection unit, the operating permissions of the power grid switching equipment are dynamically controlled.
[0024] This system enables closed-loop management of "people-equipment-system" from task assignment, location confirmation, grounding verification to high-altitude operations, eliminating human error loopholes and achieving full-process digital management. Moreover, the real-time interaction between on-site operation data and back-end monitoring instructions ensures second-level response to abnormal events and achieves real-time two-way feedback. By integrating location verification, off-ground monitoring, and parameter mandatory interlocking, a "zero-trust" safety system for power grid maintenance grounding operations is constructed, effectively solving core risks such as position deviation, parameter falsification, and lack of monitoring in traditional operations.
[0025] In this embodiment, the positioning unit includes: The BeiDou / GPS dual-mode positioning chip is configured to receive pre-input fuzzy area coordinates during maintenance tasks; The maintenance personnel terminal is configured to upload the corrected and precise coordinates at the work site, triggering the start authorization of the smart grounding pile module; Among them, the deviation threshold between the coordinates of the fuzzy area and the precise coordinates shall not exceed the preset radius range.
[0026] In this embodiment, the grounding pile body has a spiral structure; specifically, the intelligent grounding pile module also includes a rotation drive unit that drives the grounding pile body to rotate and insert into the ground, and the rotation drive unit is located at the upper end of the grounding pile body. The rotary drive unit is configured to automatically rotate into the ground to a preset depth according to the instructions of the control module, and lock the position of the grounding stake body after reaching the preset depth. The rotary drive unit specifically includes a rotary motor, a transmission gear set for connecting the rotating shaft of the rotary motor to the upper end of the grounding stake body, and a controller for controlling the rotary motor and communicating with the control module. The correspondence between the number of rotations of the rotary motor and the insertion depth of the grounding stake body can be realized by an angle encoder. The encoder can indirectly know the insertion depth of the grounding stake body by detecting a certain number of rotations of the rotary motor. Specifically, the encoder adopts the AS5048A high-precision magnetic angle encoder (14-bit resolution, ±0.05° accuracy), and the torque of the rotary motor can be realized by integrating a TS-2000 series dynamic torque sensor (range 0-200 N·m, sampling rate 1 kHz).
[0027] Specifically, in order to enable the grounding pile body to rotate while also moving longitudinally, the upper end of the grounding pile body can be designed as a vertical spline shaft that is coaxial and concentric with the helical section, and a spline sleeve is fitted on the outside of the spline shaft. The outer wall of the spline sleeve is horizontally meshed with the transmission gear set. When the rotary motor rotates, it drives the spline sleeve to rotate, which in turn drives the spline shaft to rotate while it can be screwed downwards into the ground.
[0028] The insertion depth of the grounding stake can be calculated using a depth prediction model, which is as follows: ; Where D: actual insertion depth (mm); n: Rotational motor speed; P: Pitch of the helical pile (mm); α: Coefficient of thermal expansion of the material; T: Ambient temperature (°C); β: Torque attenuation coefficient; τ: Real-time torque value (N·m).
[0029] In this embodiment, the soil resistance detection unit is also configured to detect the resistivity between two longitudinally adjacent helical segments of the grounding pile body. The soil resistance detection unit includes multiple resistance sensors, with each sensor mounted on the axial sidewall of a helical segment of the grounding pile body. These sensors are specifically Pt-Ir alloy electrodes, with the spacing between adjacent electrodes set to 20mm and the axial spacing to 50mm. The scanning method employs time-division multiplexing (scanning period <100ms). The resistivity can be calculated using a resistivity model. To ensure stability and high measurement accuracy, a three-dimensional resistivity distribution can be established based on the improved Wenner four-electrode method. ; in: ρ a Apparent resistivity (Ω·m); a: Electrode spacing (m); V1-V2: Potential difference measurement (V); I: Injected current (A); K geo Geometric correction coefficients are calculated based on the characteristics of the helical surface. Specifically, they can be calculated using a three-dimensional integral equation: ; In the above formula: R(θ): The function of the helical blade radius as a function of the rotation angle, calculated by R0+ΔRsin(2θ), where ΔR is the radius fluctuation caused by the blade thickness; h(θ): Axial displacement of the helix, which is related to the pitch P and is calculated by Pθ / 2π; r: the equivalent radius of the measuring electrode; A is the electrode contact area, calculated from the measured value. The model solves the problem of resistivity measurement distortion caused by curved surfaces by integrating spiral geometric parameters and electric field distribution, which can greatly reduce the apparent resistivity error in grounding pile detection.
[0030] In practice, soil resistance samples from the maintenance point, especially those near the power tower, can be pre-stored into the system to form a range resistance value database. When the grounding stake is inserted into the ground, its resistance changes are generally recorded in the database. This measure can be used to further prevent operators from inserting the grounding stake into non-compliant locations to deceive the system.
[0031] In this embodiment, the control module includes: The biometric unit is configured to verify the operator's identity via fingerprint or facial recognition; The operation log generation unit is configured to bind and store depth, resistance value, geographic location coordinates and operator identity to the backend server; The main control unit is configured to communicate with the backend server to receive information from the organism identification unit, the operation log generation unit, and other modules, and to control the rotation drive unit.
[0032] In this embodiment, the safety interlocking unit is further configured as follows: When the ground clearance detection unit is unlocked and detects that the worker's ground clearance exceeds the safety threshold, a voice alarm is triggered and a real-time video is sent to the back-end monitoring terminal via video call. Furthermore, the power outage status must not be lifted until a grounding completion signal is received.
[0033] In this embodiment, the safety interlocking unit is configured to trigger the circuit breaker connected to the power grid dispatching system to trip and block the power supply command when a sudden change in grounding resistance or an abnormal current is detected.
[0034] Furthermore, the confirmation information after the grounding of the grounding stake body is compliant can be further bound to the operation sequence of the grounding stake body and the insulated hanging rod connected to it, so that the grounding personnel strictly follow the order of "grounding end first, then conductor end". This method can effectively prevent the grounding personnel from reversing the order or operating without confirming that the equipment is de-energized, which could lead to electric shock accidents. Especially in complex power grid structures (such as multiple power sources or ring network power supply), it can greatly reduce the risk of grounding personnel not fully understanding the power outage area and possibly misjudging the live equipment, which could lead to serious misoperation.
[0035] In addition, to ensure sufficient and stable contact between the pole and the power line, an intelligent tightening module controlled by the main control unit can be integrated into the clamping head of the pole. When the pole is hung on the power line, the positioning information provided by the sensor triggers the main control unit to control the execution unit of the intelligent tightening module to clamp the clamping head of the pole onto the power line.
[0036] Additional hanging wires Furthermore, this system may also include: The local audible and visual alarm device is configured to emit a buzzer warning and LED flashing signal when the grounding parameters are not up to standard; The remote linkage alarm module is configured to send alarm information to the back-end monitoring terminal, including the type of violation, geographical location, and operator identity.
[0037] In this embodiment, the ground clearance detection unit includes: Wearable barometer and inertial measurement unit for real-time monitoring of workers' height above the ground; The initial height locking module is configured to record the ground reference height before grounding operations and unlock it when maintenance begins.
[0038] In addition, the protection methods for the high-voltage power grid outage maintenance grounding system, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps: Step S10: Receive maintenance task information and push the target area coordinates to the operator's terminal; Step S20: Verify that the operator has arrived at the designated area through the positioning unit and receive the accurate coordinates after on-site correction; Step S30: Activate the intelligent grounding pile module to detect the insertion depth and soil resistivity; Step S40: After the depth and resistance values meet the standards, unlock the ground clearance detection unit and bind it to the operator; Step S50: Monitor the height above the ground in real time. If the height exceeds the safety threshold or the grounding parameters are abnormal, trigger an alarm and lock the power grid operation privileges.
[0039] Furthermore, the above methods also include: Step S60: After the ground clearance detection unit is unlocked, the system automatically rechecks the current grounding depth and resistance value. If the recheck fails to meet the standard, a voice alarm is triggered and the operator is required to provide real-time feedback on the operation via video call. Step S70: All operation data is uploaded to the blockchain platform in real time to generate encrypted operation logs for later auditing and traceability.
[0040] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or modifications based on the above description, and all such improvements and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
