[0027] Example 1

[0028] A substation branch monitoring device based on low-voltage circuit fault identification and positioning, the substation branch monitoring device comprises:

[0029] The branch monitoring terminal host, auxiliary machine, wireless temperature sensor and open-and-close high-precision current transformer, the analog signal input end of the wireless temperature sensor is the analog signal input end of the substation branch monitoring device, the digital signal output end of the wireless temperature sensor is connected to the digital signal input end of the branch monitoring terminal host, the digital signal output end of the open-and-close high-precision current transformer is connected to the digital signal input end of the branch monitoring terminal host, the control signal output end of the branch monitoring terminal host is connected to the control signal input end of the auxiliary machine, and the control signal output end of the auxiliary machine is the control signal output end of the substation branch monitoring device.

[0030] The principle and effect of the above content are as follows: The wireless temperature sensor is responsible for real-time monitoring of the temperature information in the environment. The temperature change is converted into an analog signal through a temperature sensing element inside the sensor. The analog signal is output from the analog signal input end of the sensor as the analog signal input of the branch monitoring device of the substation. The sensor also contains an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to convert the analog signal into a digital signal. The digital signal is sent to the branch monitoring terminal host through the digital signal output end of the sensor. The current transformer is responsible for real-time monitoring of the current information in the circuit. Through the principle of magnetic induction, the open-close design enables the transformer to measure the current non-invasively. The transformer converts the measured current information into a digital signal. The digital signal is sent to the branch monitoring terminal host through the digital signal output end of the transformer. The branch monitoring terminal host is the core of the system and is responsible for receiving and processing data from the wireless temperature sensor and the current transformer. The host receives the digital signals of the wireless temperature sensor and the current transformer through the digital signal input end. The host analyzes, calculates and processes these signals to extract key information such as temperature and current. The host generates corresponding control signals based on the processing results. The control signal is sent to the slave through the control signal output end of the host.

[0031] As the actuator of the system, the slave receives the control signal from the branch monitoring terminal host. The control signal enters the slave through the control signal input terminal of the slave. The slave performs the corresponding action or operation according to the received control signal. The control signal output terminal of the slave is the control signal output of the entire substation branch monitoring device, which is used to control other equipment or systems. Through the wireless temperature sensor and the open-close high-precision current transformer, the temperature and current of the branch line are monitored in real time. The digital signal transmission method ensures the accuracy and stability of the data and reduces the interference and loss during the signal transmission process.

[0032] The branch monitoring terminal host has powerful data processing capabilities, can quickly process large amounts of data, and extract key information. The host can accurately determine the operating status of the branch line and discover potential problems in a timely manner. As an actuator, the slave can flexibly perform various operations according to the control signal sent by the host. This flexible control function enables the entire system to be adaptively adjusted according to actual needs, improving the adaptability and reliability of the system. The use of wireless temperature sensors makes system deployment more flexible and free from wiring restrictions. The entire system adopts a modular design, and the various components are connected through standard interfaces for easy maintenance and upgrading. This device consists of a branch monitoring terminal host, a slave (optional, topology information source terminal, which can be embedded in the device body), a wireless temperature sensor (optional, to achieve multi-channel wireless temperature measurement) and an open-close high-precision current transformer. The host realizes the measurement, metering and real-time fault judgment of electrical parameters, and at the same time controls the slave (optional, which can be embedded in the device body) to generate characteristic state sequence signals to realize the topology identification of the branch line in the substation area. The branch monitoring terminal host has a built-in high-speed AD converter and a high-speed DSP+FPU processor, which can simultaneously realize the electrical parameter measurement and metering of 6 three-phase and up to 27 channels. The branch monitoring terminal host has a built-in high-precision real-time clock. The branch monitoring terminal uses a dual-mode (HPLC+wireless) communication module to communicate with the TTU or directly communicates with the background monitoring main station through a 4G communication module (optional), and has a built-in super energy storage capacitor. When a line fault occurs and the circuit breaker trips, the branch monitoring terminal loses external power supply, and the fault information can still be sent to the TTU wirelessly.

The high-speed AD converter ensures the accuracy and real-time performance of signal conversion. The high-speed DSP+FPU processor receives digital signals from the high-speed AD converter. The processor can quickly analyze signal characteristics, extract key information, and make decisions and judgments based on preset algorithms. The data processing module further stores, filters and formats the processed data to prepare for the output of the terminal host. The data processing module sends the processed digital signal to the external device or system through the digital signal output terminal of the branch monitoring terminal host. The branch monitoring terminal host communicates with the background monitoring main station through the dual-mode communication module, TTU or 4G communication module to realize remote transmission and monitoring of data. At the same time, the host is also connected to the meter or sensor module through the RS-485 communication interface to realize local transmission and interaction of data. The branch monitoring terminal host has a built-in backup power supply and uses a super energy storage capacitor as an energy storage element. When the main power fails or is insufficient, the super energy storage capacitor can quickly release electric energy to ensure the normal operation of the terminal host and the safe storage of data.

Different types of LED modules correspond to different branch circuits, which is convenient for users to quickly locate and solve problems. The setting of the LED module enhances the maintainability of the system. The open-close high-precision current transformer measures the current in the circuit through the principle of magnetic induction, which has the characteristics of high precision and non-intrusiveness. The built-in locking mechanism of the transformer can automatically disconnect the circuit under abnormal conditions to protect the equipment and system from damage. This setting improves the accuracy and safety of current measurement. The combination of high-speed AD converter and high-speed DSP+FPU processor realizes the rapid acquisition and efficient processing of analog signals, ensuring the accuracy and real-time nature of data. The design of dual-mode communication module and multiple communication interfaces enables the system to flexibly adapt to different communication environments and needs, and realize remote and local transmission of data. As a backup power supply, the super energy storage capacitor can provide a stable power supply when the main power fails, ensuring the continuous operation of the system and the safety of data.
