Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of secondary equipment identification technology, and in particular to an intelligent identification method and system for power secondary equipment based on a digital model. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of power system operation and maintenance management, accurate identification and standardized naming of substation secondary equipment are fundamental to ensuring the safe and efficient operation of the system. Currently, this process relies heavily on manual labor. Engineers need to consult numerous design drawings and circuit manuals, analyze the connections between equipment based on personal experience to determine their functions, and then manually name them. This method is not only inefficient and prone to errors, but also difficult to adapt to the increasingly complex architecture of smart substations, resulting in chaotic equipment records and high operation and maintenance costs, which has become a bottleneck restricting the digital transformation and upgrading of power systems.
[0003] Current technologies lack a systematic method for automatically resolving equipment topology relationships and intelligently identifying their functions. While some digital models exist to describe substation equipment, they primarily focus on data storage and display, failing to deeply mine the topological connection information contained within the models to achieve automatic reasoning and standardized naming of equipment functions. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an intelligent solution capable of automatically traversing topological paths, identifying functions based on rules, and generating standardized names to overcome the limitations of manual processing and improve the level of intelligence in power grid management. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method and system for intelligent identification of secondary power equipment based on a digital model, aiming to solve at least one of the problems in the background art.
[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for intelligent identification of secondary power equipment based on a digital model, the method comprising:
[0006] A digital model of the substation is constructed, which defines the secondary equipment, primary equipment, and the topological connections between them;
[0007] Based on a preset set of equipment types, target secondary equipment is selected from the digital model;
[0008] Traverse the associated topology path of the target secondary device in the digital model to determine its functional attributes and / or associated primary devices;
[0009] Based on the aforementioned functional attributes, the target secondary device is categorized into a predefined device subtype;
[0010] The naming rule template corresponding to the device subtype is invoked to generate a standardized name for the target secondary device.
[0011] In some embodiments, the step of traversing the associated topology path of the target secondary device in the digital model includes:
[0012] Starting from the target secondary device, a breadth-first or depth-first path search is performed along its electrical connections to discover all directly or indirectly related smart devices and primary devices.
[0013] In some embodiments, the step of determining its functional attributes and / or the associated primary device includes:
[0014] The device types and loop signal properties found in the associated topology path are matched with a predefined functional feature library, which defines the standard functions corresponding to different combinations of devices and loops.

[0017] In some embodiments, the rule-based classifier performs the following steps:
[0018] If the target secondary device is a pressure plate and its functional attribute is an enable / disable protection function, then it is classified as a protection function pressure plate subtype.
[0019] If its functional attribute is to switch operation modes, then it is classified as a control mode pressure plate type.
[0020] In some embodiments, the step of calling the naming rule template corresponding to the device subtype to generate the normalized name of the target secondary device includes:
[0021] Based on the device subtype, the corresponding name format string is retrieved from a configuration mapping table. The string contains placeholders for voltage level, function description, and location.
[0022] The functional attributes, the associated primary device identifier, and the cabinet information where the target secondary device is located are filled into the corresponding placeholders of the naming rule template to synthesize the final name.

[0037] The following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, will further illustrate the present invention. Detailed Implementation
[0038] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used herein should have the ordinary meaning understood by those skilled in the art. The terms "comprising" and similar expressions used herein mean that the element or object preceding the word covers the element or object listed after the word and its equivalents, but does not exclude other elements or objects.
[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention proposes an intelligent identification method for secondary power equipment based on a digital model. The method includes steps S101 to S105, wherein:
[0040] Step S101: Construct a digital model of the substation, wherein the digital model defines the secondary equipment, primary equipment and the topological connection relationships between them;
[0041] In this step, static parameters (such as model and rated parameters) and dynamic operating data (such as real-time status signals and communication protocol data) of primary equipment (such as transformers, circuit breakers, and busbars) and secondary equipment (such as relay protection devices, monitoring and control devices, and sensors) of the substation are collected. A digital model of the substation is then constructed using 3D modeling tools or graph database technology. This model defines equipment nodes (primary and secondary equipment) and edges (topological connections) in a graph structure. Edge attributes include electrical connection type (such as cable or fiber optic cable), communication protocol type (such as IEC 61850 or Modbus), and signal flow direction.
[0042] Step S102: Based on the preset set of equipment types, select the target secondary equipment from the digital model;
[0043] It should be noted that the equipment type field is extracted from the digital model and matched with a preset set of equipment types (such as "line protection device", "busbar monitoring and control device", "fault recorder", etc.) to filter out target secondary equipment that meets the conditions. The matching rules may include exact matching (such as the equipment model being exactly the same) or fuzzy matching (such as semantic matching based on keywords, such as matching all protection devices with the keyword "protection").
[0044] Step S103: Traverse the associated topology path of the target secondary device in the digital model to determine its functional attributes and / or associated primary devices;
[0045] It should be noted that in this step, starting from the target secondary device, a breadth-first or depth-first path search is performed along its electrical connections to discover all directly or indirectly related intelligent devices and primary devices. Then, the device types and loop signal properties discovered in the associated topology path are matched with a predefined functional feature library, which defines the standard functions corresponding to different combinations of devices and loops.
[0046] By employing breadth-first or depth-first path search algorithms, a systematic traversal of device relationships was achieved, ensuring that no critical connection information was overlooked, thus laying a complete data foundation for subsequent functional analysis. By establishing a predefined functional feature library and performing feature matching, complex loop analysis was transformed into a standardized pattern recognition problem, significantly improving the accuracy and consistency of functional attribute determination.
[0047] Step S104: Based at least on the functional attributes, classify the target secondary device into a predefined device subtype;
[0048] In this step, a rule-based classifier is applied. The input of the classifier includes the functional attribute and the associated primary device type, and the output is the corresponding device subtype. The rule-based classifier performs the following steps: if the target secondary device is a pressure plate and its functional attribute is an activation / deactivation protection function, then it is classified as a protection function pressure plate subtype; if its functional attribute is a switching operation mode, then it is classified as a control mode pressure plate subtype.
[0049] By introducing a rule-based classifier, multi-dimensional feature information is transformed into accurate equipment subtype determinations, thus automating and intelligentizing the classification process. Furthermore, specific rule examples demonstrate how the classifier achieves refined classification, effectively distinguishing different types of pressure plates and improving the granularity and professionalism of equipment management.
[0050] Step S105: Call the naming rule template corresponding to the device subtype to generate the standardized name of the target secondary device.
[0051] In this step, firstly, based on the device subtype, the corresponding name format string is retrieved from a configuration mapping table. The string contains placeholders for voltage level, function description, and location. Then, the function attribute, the associated primary device identifier, and the cabinet information where the target secondary device is located are filled into the corresponding placeholders of the naming rule template to synthesize the final name.
[0052] By configuring the mapping table and the placeholder filling mechanism, the naming process can be flexibly configured and automatically synthesized, which not only ensures the uniformity of naming conventions, but also meets the personalized needs of different scenarios.
[0053] In summary, the above-mentioned intelligent identification method for power secondary equipment based on a digital model systematically constructs a digital model containing primary equipment, secondary equipment, and their topological connections. It automatically traverses and analyzes the associated paths of target equipment to determine its functional attributes. Based on predefined classification rules and naming templates, it ultimately achieves accurate classification of equipment subtypes and automatic generation of standardized names, thereby significantly improving the intelligence level and efficiency of power system operation and maintenance management.
