[0149] The life prediction unit is used to predict the remaining operating time of a circuit breaker from its current state to failure. The life prediction unit consists of an LSTM prediction subunit and a RUL calculation subunit, and includes the following steps:

[0150] The S4021 LSTM prediction subunit takes the health index time series of the past 30 days as input, predicts the trend of health index changes in the next 7 days through a two-layer LSTM network, and outputs the rate of health index degradation. The LSTM network has a hidden layer dimension of 64 and uses the Adam optimizer with a learning rate of 1e-3 during training.

[0151] S4022, the RUL calculation sub-unit calculates the remaining useful life based on the current health index and degradation rate. The expression for the remaining useful life prediction is as follows:

[0152]

[0153] In the above formula, Let t be the predicted remaining useful life at time t. Let t be the health index at time t. The failure threshold Let t be the rate of decline of the health index. These are the initial correction coefficients. This is the time decay coefficient. In this embodiment, The value is 0.3. The value is 0.1. The value is 0.005.

[0154] S4023, Output the remaining useful life prediction value to the alarm decision unit.

[0155] S403 The alarm decision unit makes hierarchical alarm decisions based on health index, remaining service life and fault diagnosis results, and outputs alarm commands.

[0156] The alarm decision unit executes tiered alarms based on multi-dimensional evaluation results. The alarm decision unit consists of a rule engine subunit and an alarm output subunit, and includes the following steps:

[0157] S4031, the rule engine subunit performs multi-condition fusion judgment based on health index, remaining service life, fault type, fault severity and fault location, and outputs four alarm levels.

[0158] when and The timing was deemed normal; when or The timing was deemed opportune; when... or The timing was deemed a warning; when or The timing was deemed critical.

[0159] S4032, the alarm output subunit encapsulates the alarm level, fault type, fault location, health index and remaining service life into an alarm message, and uploads it to the distribution network master station system through the 5G communication module. At the same time, the LED indicator on the edge side of the pole-mounted circuit breaker performs hierarchical display.

[0160] When the alarm level is emergency, the alarm output subunit synchronously triggers the circuit breaker tripping and blocking signal to prevent the fault from escalating.

[0161] The test was conducted using the scheme of this embodiment, and compared with traditional electrical testing, traditional vibration testing, and traditional infrared testing methods. The test items included fault identification accuracy, early warning lead time, and RUL prediction error. The test results are shown in Table 1.

Furthermore, it can provide early warning, with an advance warning period of up to 23.5 days. This invention can perform early and accurate detection and remaining life prediction of multiple types of faults in pole-mounted circuit breakers, significantly improving the fault identification accuracy.
