Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of cable live-line detection and defect location technology, and in particular to a method, equipment and medium for locating cable live-line defects based on resistance-capacitance coupling. Background Technology
[0002] Power cables are widely used in power distribution networks, substations, rail transit, petrochemical plants, and large industrial power supply systems. Their operational reliability directly affects power supply safety and equipment stability. During long-term operation, cables are subjected to factors such as heat, electrical and mechanical stress, humid environments, and partial discharge, which can easily lead to defects such as insulation aging, localized water trees, shielding damage, and poor joint contact. If these defects are not detected in their early stages, they may further develop into breakdowns, short circuits, or grounding faults.
[0003] Among existing cable defect location technologies, time-domain reflection and frequency-domain reflection are the most typical reflection location methods. Time-domain reflection typically injects a pulse signal into the out-of-service cable and determines the defect location based on the arrival time of the reflected wave. It has advantages such as simple principle and lightweight equipment, but its location accuracy is easily affected by wavefront distortion, attenuation, and noise. Frequency-domain reflection, on the other hand, measures the input impedance spectrum or reflection coefficient spectrum and then obtains the distance domain response through inverse Fourier transform, offering higher location resolution and bandwidth utilization.
[0004] However, traditional reflection methods are mostly geared towards offline testing scenarios. For live cables, it is difficult for testing equipment to directly connect to the cable core metal, and it must meet requirements for operational safety, insulation isolation, and low intrusion access. Therefore, reflection methods are relatively less used in online and live cable testing. Existing online monitoring methods rely more on partial discharge, sheath current, temperature, dielectric loss, or oscillating waves. These methods can reflect the cable's operating status, but they still have shortcomings in accurate defect location, early identification of weak defects, or accessibility at the cable's head end.
[0005] In field scenarios such as power distribution equipment, switchgear, or cable terminals, an RC coupling channel that maintains insulation isolation from the cable core or busbar can be installed. This channel consists of coupling capacitors, voltage divider resistors, and detection ports, enabling the formation of a broadband signal coupling path without direct contact with the primary conductor. By using this RC coupling channel to superimpose or inject low-energy broadband detection signals onto live cables, it is possible to achieve the safe access required for online detection using the reflection method without damaging the original insulation structure of the power equipment, without power interruption, and without changing the main circuit operation mode.
[0006] However, the RC coupling channel itself introduces series capacitance, voltage divider resistors, and parasitic inductance at the beginning, and its impedance frequency characteristics significantly affect the injected signal and the measured system impedance spectrum. Experiments and simulations both show that when a series capacitor or RC coupling structure exists at the beginning, directly performing an inverse Fourier transform on the system impedance spectrum easily leads to problems such as enhanced beginning response, broadened location peaks, masking of defect peaks, or decreased location sensitivity. Therefore, how to achieve live injection through an RC coupling channel while simultaneously eliminating or reducing the influence of the beginning coupling network on the frequency domain reflection location results is a crucial problem that urgently needs to be solved in the location of live defects in cables. Summary of the Invention

Furthermore, it extends the traditional reflection method from offline detection during power outages to live-line detection scenarios, resolving the difficulty of safely accessing and injecting signals into operating cables.

[0025] It should be noted that the cable live defect location system based on RC coupling injection in this application can utilize an RC coupling channel composed of coupling capacitors, voltage divider resistors, and detection ports as the injection and measurement channel for detection signals. The detection equipment is connected to the low-voltage side of the RC coupling channel; the detection equipment generates a broadband signal, which is injected into the live cable core through the RC coupling channel; the capacitance impedance spectrum of the RC coupling channel and the broadband impedance spectrum of the system are obtained; by compensating the RC coupling network at the beginning, a frequency domain spectrum for defect diagnosis is constructed; finally, an inverse Fourier transform is performed on the frequency domain spectrum to obtain the distance domain defect diagnosis function, and the defect location is determined based on the peak position.
[0026] This application provides a method for locating live defects in cables based on resistive-capacitive coupling, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method for locating live defects in cables based on resistance-capacitance coupling specifically includes steps S101-S106: S101. Based on the RC coupling channel that maintains insulation isolation from the cable core or busbar, an RC coupling injection path is constructed.
[0027] Specifically, when the cable to be tested is in a energized operating state, an RC coupling channel that is insulated from the cable core or busbar is selected as the coupling path for the detection signal.
[0028] Furthermore, the detection equipment is connected to the low-voltage side of the RC coupling channel, and a low-energy broadband signal from the detection equipment is injected for control through the detection signal coupling path. Finally, based on the detection signal coupling path and the low-energy broadband signal, an RC coupling injection path is constructed.
[0029] As a feasible implementation method, Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a cable live-line defect location system provided in an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, a resistance-capacitive coupling injection path needs to be constructed first. That is, when the cable under test is in a energized operating state, a resistance-capacitive coupling channel that is insulated from the cable core or busbar is selected as the coupling path for the detection signal. The detection equipment is connected to the low-voltage side of the resistance-capacitive coupling channel, and a low-energy broadband signal is injected into the cable core through this resistance-capacitive coupling path.

Figure 2 As shown, in the actual RC coupling channel, the parallel resistance is approximately 10MΩ, which is much larger than the equivalent impedance of the coupling capacitor and cable loop within the test frequency band. Therefore, in broadband signal injection analysis, this parallel resistance has a weak effect on current shunting in the measurement loop. It can be approximated that the measurement loop consists of the test signal source, the signal source internal resistance, the coupling capacitor, and the cable under test connected in series. In the simulation, a live-line detection model is established based on this equivalent series loop, consisting of a 50Ω signal source internal resistance, a 20pF coupling capacitor, a 10kV distribution cable, local defects, and the cable end boundary. The cable length is 100m, with defects set at 20m and 50m, and the cable end is open-circuited. The simulation calculates the location results without and with the RC coupling channel.

[0041] In one embodiment, it is also necessary to construct the cable frequency domain diagnostic impedance spectrum, that is, to reduce the influence of the first-end RC coupling structure on the distance domain positioning results, the above-mentioned frequency domain diagnostic impedance spectrum is constructed.
[0042] S105. Perform an inverse Fourier transform on the weighted frequency domain spectrum of the interpolated cable frequency domain diagnostic impedance spectrum to obtain the distance domain defect diagnostic function.
[0043] Specifically, the frequency sequence in the RC coupling channel is first deduplicated and sorted, and an equally spaced frequency axis is constructed from zero to the highest effective frequency. Then, based on the equally spaced frequency axis, the frequency domain diagnostic impedance spectrum of the cable is interpolated to obtain the complex spectrum on the equally spaced frequency sequence.
[0044] Furthermore, the imaginary part of the complex spectrum is selected as the input of the fast inverse Fourier transform.
[0045] Furthermore, according to The distance domain defect diagnosis function is obtained. .in, For Fast Inverse Fourier Transform; For the first Window function weights at each frequency point; This represents the number of sampling points in the distance domain after the inverse Fourier transform. This refers to the frequency domain sampling point number; This refers to the sampling point number in the distance domain; The selected cable frequency domain diagnostic impedance spectrum, and It includes multiple frequency domain diagnostic impedance spectra, and for example, it also includes: (Measured Coupling Capacitance Compensation Spectrum) (Ideal model compensation spectrum) or (System impedance spectrum).
[0046] In one embodiment, the inverse Fourier transform is needed to obtain the distance domain defect diagnosis function. That is, the frequency sequence is deduplicated and sorted, and a range from 0 to the highest effective frequency is constructed. The frequency axes are then evenly spaced. Interpolation is then performed on the defect diagnosis spectra in each range domain to obtain the complex spectrum over the evenly spaced frequency sequence. Finally, the imaginary part of the spectrum is selected as the IFFT input, and a Chebyshev window is used for weighting. After performing an inverse Fourier transform on the weighted frequency domain spectrum, the range domain defect diagnosis function is obtained.
[0047] Furthermore, it is also necessary to combine the distance domain defect diagnosis function with the sampling interval. and cable propagation speed To construct the subsequent distance axis. First, based on...

This represents the sampling point number in the distance domain.
[0048] In one embodiment, Figure 3 A simulation positioning result comparison diagram is provided for an embodiment of this application, such as... Figure 3 As shown, simulation results indicate that when performing IFFT on the impedance spectrum of a system containing a first-end RC coupling channel, the impedance spectrum measurement is easily affected by the first-end series capacitor, which leads to the failure of the distance domain diagnostic curve.
[0049] S106. Using the distance domain defect diagnosis function, the cable defect is judged based on the peak value of the diagnosis function to obtain the cable defect detection result.
[0050] Specifically, a cable distance axis is first constructed based on the cable distances corresponding to several distance domain sampling points.
[0051] Furthermore, the cable distance axis position is determined by the peak value of the diagnostic function in the distance domain defect diagnostic function: if the peak value is located at the end of the cable, the cable defect detection result is determined to be an end reflection result. If the peak value is located in the middle of the cable, the cable defect detection result is determined to be a local defect result.
[0052] In one embodiment, the final determination of the cable's live-line test result is as follows: based on the distance domain defect diagnosis function d[x] obtained in step 105, the cable defect is judged: if the peak value of the diagnosis function is located near the end of the cable, it is determined to be an end reflection; if the peak value is located in the middle area of the cable, it is determined to be a local defect.
