Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power equipment monitoring technology, specifically to a multi-parameter online monitoring and intelligent early warning system for substation equipment. Background Technology
[0002] As the core hub for power grid transmission and distribution, the operating status of key equipment such as transformers, switchgear, cable joints, and combined electrical appliances in substations directly affects the safe and stable operation of the power grid and the reliability of power supply.
[0003] Existing substation monitoring methods primarily rely on single-dimensional temperature monitoring, lacking comprehensive data collection and joint analysis of multiple operating parameters such as equipment current, partial discharge, and ambient temperature and humidity. This makes it difficult to fully and accurately reflect the actual operating status of the equipment. Furthermore, traditional monitoring systems suffer from isolated data, weak linkage, and simplistic early warning logic. They often depend on fixed thresholds for judgment, failing to effectively identify parameter change trends, leading to high false alarm and false negative rates. Moreover, substations are environments with strong electromagnetic interference, and conventional communication methods are prone to data packet loss and unstable transmission, further impacting monitoring accuracy.
[0004] While some existing technologies can collect multiple parameters, the data for each parameter are independent and lack an effective correlation analysis mechanism. When a single parameter fluctuates, it is difficult to determine whether it is due to a real equipment failure or environmental interference, which fails to meet the actual needs of modern substations for intelligent, unmanned, and highly reliable operation and maintenance.
[0005] Therefore, developing an online monitoring system for substations that can achieve comprehensive monitoring of multiple parameters, stable transmission against interference, correlation and fusion analysis, and accurate early warning is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention
[0006] Purpose of the invention

It solves problems such as single monitoring dimensions, high false alarm and missed alarm rates, weak anti-interference capabilities, and low intelligence levels in existing monitoring systems, thereby improving the comprehensiveness of substation equipment monitoring, the accuracy of early warning, and operational safety.
[0008] Technical solution

Detailed Implementation
[0016] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and 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. Example:
[0017] Please see the appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 3 This invention provides a multi-parameter online monitoring and intelligent early warning system for substation equipment, including a multi-parameter acquisition terminal (1), a data transmission unit (2), a comprehensive processing unit (3), a data storage unit (4), an intelligent early warning unit (5), and a remote monitoring unit (6). The specific configuration of each unit is as follows: The multi-parameter acquisition terminal (1) includes a temperature sensor module (11), a current transformer module (12), a partial discharge sensor module (13), and an environmental sensor module (14). The temperature sensor module (11) uses a high-precision platinum resistance sensor, which is placed in key heat-generating parts such as transformer windings, switch cabinet contacts, and cable joints. The measurement range is -40℃ to 150℃, with an accuracy of ±0.5℃. The current transformer module (12) uses a Rogowski coil transformer, which is compatible with a current range of 0 to 1000A and has an error of ≤1%. The partial discharge sensor module (13) uses an ultrasonic sensor with a detection frequency range of 20kHz to 1MHz, which can accurately capture partial discharge signals of equipment. The environmental sensor module (14) integrates a temperature and humidity sensor to collect environmental temperature and humidity data at the substation site, providing a basis for interference judgment.
[0018] The data transmission unit (2) adopts a LoRa wireless communication module with a working frequency band of 433MHz. It has frequency hopping spread spectrum and anti-interference coding modulation functions. The communication distance can reach 1000m. It can effectively resist strong electromagnetic interference from substations, avoid data packet loss, transmission delay and other problems, and ensure that the collected data is stably transmitted to the integrated processing unit (3).
[0019] The integrated processing unit (3) adopts an STM32 series embedded controller with a built-in multi-parameter correlation fusion analysis module. It can preset the normal threshold range and logical interlock relationship of each parameter. For example, when only the temperature sensor module (11) detects a temperature rise, while the current transformer module (12) and the partial discharge sensor module (13) detect normal data, the system determines that it is an environmental thermal radiation interference and does not trigger an alarm. When the temperature rise is accompanied by an abnormal increase in current or an enhanced partial discharge signal, the system determines that it is a device fault and classifies the warning level (general warning, emergency warning) according to the degree of abnormality.
[0020] The sound and light alarm (51) in the intelligent early warning unit (5) uses a high-volume buzzer and a high-brightness LED light, which is installed on the substation equipment site. When the early warning is triggered, the buzzer emits a warning sound of ≥85dB and the LED light flashes to remind the personnel on site. The remote push module (52) uses a 4G module, which can push the early warning information (including fault location, abnormal parameters, and early warning level) to the mobile APP and PC monitoring platform of the operation and maintenance personnel to realize remote reminder.
[0021] The data storage unit (4) adopts a dual storage mode of local SD card (storage capacity ≥32GB) plus cloud server. The local SD card is used to store the recent 3 months of operation data and abnormal records, and the cloud server is used to store all data for a long time. It supports data traceability and query. When local data is lost, it can be restored through cloud backup.
[0022] The remote monitoring unit (6) includes PC monitoring software and mobile APP, which supports real-time display of equipment operating status (displaying various parameter data in the form of dashboard and curves), historical data query (can be filtered by time range), curve comparison analysis, report export (supports Excel format), remote early warning settings and other functions. Maintenance personnel can check the equipment status anytime and anywhere and handle faults in a timely manner.
[0023] In this embodiment, the system workflow is as follows: The multi-parameter acquisition terminal (1) collects equipment temperature, current, partial discharge and ambient temperature and humidity data in real time, and transmits them to the integrated processing unit (3) through the data transmission unit (2) with anti-interference; the integrated processing unit (3) performs correlation analysis and cross-verification on the multi-parameters to determine the equipment operating status; if the equipment is determined to be faulty, the intelligent early warning unit (5) is activated to perform graded early warning, and the relevant data is stored in the data storage unit (4); the maintenance personnel view the early warning information and equipment status through the remote monitoring unit (6) and carry out maintenance work.
[0024] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
