Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of power system operation and maintenance monitoring technology, specifically relating to a non-intrusive secondary cabinet cable current and voltage monitoring device and its installation method. Background Technology

[0002] In power systems, secondary switchgear cabinets serve as the core carriers of secondary equipment for protection, control, and measurement. The current and voltage status of their internal cables directly affect the correct operation of relay protection devices, the accurate data acquisition of measurement and control devices, and the safe and stable operation of the entire power grid. With the continuous expansion of the power grid, factors such as equipment aging, load fluctuations, and human error can all lead to abnormal operating conditions in secondary circuits, such as poor contact, decreased insulation, open circuits in current transformers, or short circuits in voltage transformers. If these hidden dangers are not detected and addressed in a timely manner, they may cause protection systems to fail to operate, malfunction, or even escalate into power grid accidents.

[0003] Currently, non-invasive monitoring of electrical parameters of cables in secondary power distribution cabinets mainly relies on two methods: First, during equipment power outages for maintenance, maintenance personnel use handheld instruments such as clamp meters and multimeters for periodic inspections. This method is discrete detection, has poor timeliness, cannot capture transient faults or intermittent anomalies, and frequent cabinet opening operations increase operational risks. Second, some secondary power distribution cabinets integrate sensors for collecting incoming current and voltage of secondary equipment. However, the internal space of the cabinet is limited, and the cable to be monitored is randomly arranged on the terminal block. Different sensor fixing schemes and engineering application methods need to be designed for different cable positions. This makes it difficult to move or add / remove sensors once they are fixed. Moreover, the sensors used are all closed-type current transformers, and their installation or modification requires disconnecting the original cables. This is not only a complex process that requires equipment power outages, but may also introduce new fault points due to disconnection operations, affecting power supply reliability.

[0019] The technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments of the present invention and the specific features in the embodiments are detailed descriptions of the technical solution of the present invention, rather than limitations thereof. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the technical features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0020] The term "and / or" simply describes the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A alone, A and B simultaneously, or B alone. Additionally, the character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.

[0021] Example 1

[0022] This embodiment describes a non-intrusive secondary cabinet cable current and voltage monitoring device, such as... Figure 1 , Figures 3-5 As shown, it specifically includes: sensor unit 1, collector unit 2 and carrier unit 3; sensor unit 1 and collector unit 2 are disposed on carrier unit 3; carrier unit is used to fix the monitoring device to the secondary cabinet, and the positions of collector unit and sensor unit can be flexibly adjusted according to the scene where the cable under test is located.

[0023] The sensor unit includes one or more sub-sensors; the number of sub-sensors is selected according to the number of cables under test; each sub-sensor includes a sensor probe 11, a data acquisition board 12, and a spring contact 13; the sensor probe 11 is configured with an open-loop mutual inductance structure adapted to the cable under test. The open-loop structure allows for non-invasive monitoring of the cable under test, and the opening allows installation to be completed under normal operating conditions of the cable, avoiding data loss and production losses due to power outages; the sensor probe 11 is electrically connected to the data acquisition board 12; the data acquisition board acquires the current and voltage data of the cable under test through the sensor probe. The spring contact 13 is preferably made of gold-plated copper, possessing extensibility and maintaining good conductivity under pressure.

[0024] The collector unit 2 includes a data collection board 21, a collector main control chip 22, and a terminal block 23. The input terminals of the data collection board 21 are connected to the data acquisition boards 12 of each sub-sensor through the spring contacts 13 of each sub-sensor. The data collection board has multiple copper-clad areas that cooperate with the spring contacts to realize the connection of the data collection board to each sub-sensor, which improves the adaptability to different numbers of cables under test.

[0026] In this embodiment, a sensor probe with an open circular ring mutual inductance structure is used to achieve non-invasive monitoring of the cable under test. The sensor can be installed and removed while the cable under test is working normally, ensuring the safety of cable monitoring. After the sensor unit collects data, it interacts with the external cable monitoring system through the aggregator unit. Both the sensor unit and the aggregator unit are located on the carrier unit, so the position of the sensor unit can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual position of the cable under test.

[0027] Example 2

[0028] Based on the same inventive concept as Embodiment 1, this embodiment introduces a non-intrusive secondary cabinet cable current and voltage monitoring device, including a sensor unit 1, a collector unit 2 and a carrier unit 3.

[0029] like Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the sensor unit 1 includes a sensor probe 11, a data acquisition board 12, a spring contact 13, a locking screw 14, and a sensor unit housing 15. The sensor probe 11 is an open-ring mutual inductance structure through which the cable under test 4 can pass, consisting of a magnetic core 111 and an excitation coil 112. The inner side of the ring is the through-hole area of ​​the cable under test 4, and the magnetic core 111 is surrounded on the outer side of the ring. The magnetic core 111 is a discontinuous structure that can be separated or fastened as the sensor probe 11 is opened and closed. When fastened, the cross-section of the magnetic core 111 is tightly connected. The excitation coil 112 is a closed loop structure made of copper wire, which is fastened to the magnetic core 111. The excitation coil is wound around the bottom of the magnetic core, and the axis of the magnetic core 111 is perpendicular to the axis of the excitation coil 112. The two ends of the excitation coil 112 are soldered to the data acquisition board 12. The data acquisition board 12 is fixed to the inner bottom of the sensor unit housing 15. Four spring contacts 13 are welded to its lower end. A square through-hole is provided at the bottom of the sensor unit housing to accommodate the spring contacts 13 being welded to the data acquisition board 12, corresponding to the positive contact 131, negative contact 132, ground contact 133, and data transmission contact 134, respectively. A locking screw 14 is installed on the outside of the sensor unit housing 15 for fixing it to the lower housing 32. The locking screw 14 is a non-removable screw. The sensor unit housing 15 has an electromagnetic shielding structure.

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, the collector unit 2 includes a data collection board 21, a collector main control chip 22, and wiring terminals 23. The data collection board 21 is a long strip-shaped multilayer printed circuit board with four copper-clad areas along its width: a positive-charge copper-clad area 211, a negative-charge copper-clad area 212, a ground copper-clad area 213, and a data transmission copper-clad area 214. The positive-charge copper-clad areas 211, 212, and 213 are arranged in a continuous "1" shape, with a length similar to that of the data collection board 21, serving as a parallel connection for current collection. The data collection board supplies power to the data acquisition board via the positive, negative, and ground contacts of the spring contacts in the positive, negative, and ground copper-clad areas. The data transmission copper-clad areas 214 are arranged intermittently at equal intervals, used to connect the data transmission nodes of each sub-sensor, with each segment independently connected to a different data acquisition channel of the collector main control chip 22. The main control chip 22 of the aggregator is soldered to the data aggregation board 21 and is used to process the current, voltage and other data uploaded by each sensor unit 1. The terminal block 23 is soldered to the end of the data aggregation board 21 and is electrically connected to the main control chip 22 of the aggregator and the data aggregation board 21 respectively, and is used for power supply. The main control chip 22 of the aggregator interacts with the external cable monitoring system through the terminal block 23.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, the supporting unit 3 includes a fixing plate 31, a lower housing 32, and an upper housing 33. One end of the fixing plate 31 is fixed to the lower housing 32, and the other end is used to fix it to the secondary screen cabinet 5. The lower housing 32 has a U-shaped structure with a through groove 321 inside, in which the collector unit 2 is fixed. The top end face of the lower housing 32 has fixing grooves 322 on both sides for detachably connecting the sensor unit 1, which are used to facilitate the elastic contact connection between the sensor unit 1 and the collector unit 2. During installation, the sensor unit 1 is embedded into the lower housing 32, ensuring that the four spring contacts 13 are in elastic and tight contact with the corresponding positive copper-plated areas 211, negative copper-plated areas 212, ground copper-plated areas 213, and data transmission copper-plated areas 214 on the data collection board 21. The locking screw 14 is rotated and tightened into the fixing slot 322, thus fixing a single sub-sensor. Multiple sub-sensors can be installed in the fixing slot. Because the spring contacts 13 have elastic extension and contraction, and the data transmission contacts 134 can establish communication upon contact with a single segment of the data transmission copper-plated area 214 for transmitting data from the tested cable, information from each sub-sensor is collected. Therefore, the sensor unit 1 can be adjusted within a certain range along the length of the data collection board 21 to accommodate different arrangements of the tested cables 4. The sensor unit 1, composed of multiple sub-sensors, can be arranged in a single row, suitable for engineering applications where the arrangement of the tested cables 4 is relatively spacious. The upper housing 33 is fixed to the upper end of the lower housing 32 for electrical protection of the entire device. The bearing unit is made of insulating material, and the fixing plate 31 is provided with multiple fixing points for adjusting the fixing position of the lower housing 32.

[0032] Example 3

[0033] Based on the same inventive concept as other embodiments, this embodiment introduces a non-invasive secondary cabinet cable current and voltage monitoring device, such as... Figure 2 As shown, it includes a sensor unit 1, a collector unit 2, and a carrier unit 3, with the sub-sensors in the sensor unit 1 closely arranged on the carrier unit 3.

[0034] Sensor unit 1 includes a sensor probe 11, a data acquisition board 12, a spring contact 13, a locking screw 14, and a sensor unit housing 15. The sensor probe 11 is an open-loop mutual inductance structure through which the cable under test 4 can pass, such as... Figure 8 , Figure 9As shown, the sensor unit housing 111 consists of a magnetic core 111 and an excitation coil 112, forming a mutual inductance structure. The inner side of the ring is the through-hole area for the cable 4 under test, while the outer side of the ring is surrounded by the magnetic core 111. The magnetic core 111 is a discontinuous structure that can be separated or engaged as the sensor probe 11 opens and closes. When engaged, the cross-section of the magnetic core 111 is tightly connected. The excitation coil 112 is a closed loop structure made of copper wire, which is engaged with the magnetic core 111. The axis of the magnetic core 111 is perpendicular to the axis of the excitation coil 112. The two ends of the excitation coil 112 are soldered to the data acquisition board 12. The data acquisition board 12 is fixed to the inner bottom of the sensor unit housing 15, and four spring contacts 13 are soldered to its lower end, corresponding to the positive contact 131, negative contact 132, ground contact 133, and data transmission contact 134, respectively. A locking screw 14 is installed on the outside of the sensor unit housing 15 for fixing to the lower housing 32.

[0035] like Figure 6 As shown, the collector unit 2 includes a data collection board 21, a collector main control chip 22, and terminal blocks 23. The data collection board 21 is a long, strip-shaped multilayer printed circuit board with five copper-clad areas along its width: a first data transmission copper-clad area 215, a positive voltage copper-clad area 211, a negative voltage copper-clad area 212, a ground copper-clad area 213, and a second data transmission copper-clad area 216. The positive voltage copper-clad area 211, the negative voltage copper-clad area 212, and the ground copper-clad area 213 are continuous U-shaped, serving as a parallel connection for current collection. The first data transmission copper-clad area 215 and the second data transmission copper-clad area 216 are intermittently arranged at equidistant ends, each segment independently connected to a different data acquisition channel of the collector main control chip 22. The collector main control chip 22 is soldered to the data collection board 21 and is used to process the current and voltage data uploaded by each sensor unit 1. Terminal blocks 23 are soldered to the end of the data collection board 21 and are used to connect to an external power supply and communicate with the monitoring system.

[0036] The supporting unit 3 includes a fixing plate 31, a lower housing 32, and an upper housing 33. For example... Figure 8As shown, one end of the fixing plate 31 is fixed to the lower housing 32, and the other end is used to fix it to the secondary cabinet 5. The lower housing 32 has a U-shaped structure with a through groove 321 inside, in which the collector unit 2 is fixed. The upper surface of the lower housing 32 has two fixing grooves 322. During installation, the sensor unit 1 is embedded into the lower housing 32, so that the four spring contacts 13 are in close contact with the corresponding copper-plated areas on the data collection board 21. The locking screw 14 is rotated and inserted into the fixing groove 322 and tightened to complete the fixing of a single sub-sensor. Since the spring contacts 13 have elastic extension and contraction, and the data transmission contact 134 can establish communication by contacting either the first data transmission copper-plated area 215 or the second data transmission copper-plated area 216, the sensor unit 1 can be adjusted in position along the length of the data collection board 21 within a certain range to adapt to the arrangement of different tested cables 4. Multiple sensor units 1 can be arranged in staggered double rows, which is suitable for engineering application scenarios where the spacing between tested cables 4 is small. The upper housing 33 is fixed to the upper end of the lower housing 32 and is used for electrical protection of the entire module.

[0037] Example 4

[0038] Based on the same inventive concept as other embodiments, this embodiment introduces a method for installing a non-intrusive secondary cabinet cable current and voltage monitoring device, such as... Figure 7 As shown, it specifically includes: Step S101: Fix the fixing plate 31 to a suitable position on the secondary screen cabinet 5 using screws; Step S102: Install the lower housing 32, which is pre-assembled with the collector unit 2, onto the fixing plate 31, and adjust its position to be between the secondary cabinet body 5 and the secondary cabinet terminal block 6. Step S103: Open the sensor probe 11, place the cable under test 4 inside the sensor probe 11 through area, and close the sensor probe 11 so that it surrounds the cable under test 4. Step S104: Electrically connect sensor unit 1 to collector unit 2, make spring contact 13 contact the corresponding copper-plated area on data collection board 21, and use locking screw 14 to fix sensor unit 1 to lower housing 32. Step S105, repeat steps S103-S104, and install the corresponding sensor unit 1 on all the cables 4 under test in sequence. Step S106: Fasten the upper housing 33 to the upper end of the lower housing 32.

[0039] In this implementation, the non-intrusive installation method for the cable current and voltage monitoring module in the secondary cabinet achieves rapid installation without interrupting the operation of the cable under test 4 through innovative design. First, the fixing plate 31 is fixed to a suitable position on the secondary cabinet body 5 using screws. The lower housing 32, pre-assembled with the collector unit 2, is then installed on the fixing plate 31. The fixing point position on the fixing plate 31 is adjusted according to the available space, ensuring that the lower housing 32 is positioned in the gap between the cabinet body and the terminal block, ensuring that the original wiring and operation are not affected. Next, the sensor probe 11 is opened, and the cable under test 4 is placed inside the sensor probe 11 through-hole area. The sensor probe 11 is closed so that it surrounds the cable under test 4. The sensor unit 1 is aligned with the corresponding position on the lower housing 32, so that the spring contact 13 contacts the copper-plated area on the data collection board 21. It is then finely adjusted along its length to a suitable position so that the cable under test 4 is not under pressure. The locking screw 14 is tightened to lock it into the fixing groove 322, completing the fixing of the sensor unit 1. Next, repeat the above steps, installing the corresponding sensor unit 1 on each of the tested cables 4 in sequence. The power supply for each sensor unit 1 is achieved through parallel connection of the positive copper-plated area 211, the negative copper-plated area 212, and the ground copper-plated area 213. Data is independently transmitted to the collector main control chip 22 through their respective contacted data transmission copper-plated areas 214, without interference. Finally, the upper housing 33 is fastened to the upper end of the lower housing 32, completing the electrical protection of the entire module.

[0040] In summary, this invention achieves truly non-intrusive online monitoring without requiring the removal of existing cables, interruption of equipment operation, or alteration of the secondary circuit topology during the entire installation process. Furthermore, the sensor unit can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual cable location, offering strong scalability and convenient assembly / disassembly. It effectively utilizes the narrow space between the cabinet and terminal blocks, ensuring a neat internal layout and reliable operation of the cabinet.
