Designed to output 20,000A AC and DC, it is primarily used to set the current setpoints of low-voltage electrical equipment and the current values ​​of DC quick-acting switches. It can also be used for temperature rise verification testing of equipment load capacity. High-current setting tests primarily target low-voltage circuit breakers undergoing repair in the field and for offline diagnosis of circuit breakers suspected of overcurrent protection failures. Therefore, the quality of the setting device directly impacts the quality and efficiency of repairs. In practice, the current output capacity of the high-current setting device is often limited by the connection between the device and the main circuit of the equipment being tested. Currently, the traditional connection method often uses multi-strand braided annealed copper wire.

Furthermore, when connected with multi-strand braided annealed copper wire, the main circuit is prone to overheating, posing a safety hazard. Bolts are typically used to connect the multi-strand braided annealed copper wire to the high-current setting device and circuit breaker, which is labor-intensive and inefficient.

[0018] Implementation example Figures 1 to 7As shown, the connection tooling for the main circuit of the large current setting device of the present invention includes a first outer copper bar 1, a first inner copper bar 2, a second outer copper bar 3 and a second inner copper bar 4. The first outer copper bar 1 and the first inner copper bar 2 are spaced apart in the front section and are provided with a first bending portion 5 arranged in a stacked manner in the tail section. The first outer copper bar 1 and the first inner copper bar 2 are spaced apart in the front section and are provided with a long groove 6 with a matching position, and the first bending portion 5 is spaced apart and provided with a through hole 51. The second outer copper bar 3 and the second inner copper bar 4 are spaced apart in the front section and are provided with a second bending portion 7 with a stacked arrangement in the tail section. The second outer copper bar 3 and the second inner copper bar 4 are spaced apart in the front section and are provided with a through hole 8 with a matching position, and a second bending portion 9 is spaced apart. The bend 7 is provided with long grooves 71 at intervals. The first bend 5 and the second bend 7 are arranged in a stacked manner and are fixedly connected by passing a bolt 93 through the through hole 51 of the first bend 5 and the long groove 71 of the second bend 7. The front sections of the first outer copper bar 1 and the first inner copper bar 2 clamp the setting device busbar 91 and are fixedly connected by passing a bolt 94 through the long groove 6 of the front sections of the first outer copper bar 1 and the first inner copper bar 2 and the through hole of the setting device busbar 91. The front sections of the second outer copper bar 3 and the second inner copper bar 4 clamp the busbar 92 of the switch device under inspection and are fixedly connected by passing a bolt 95 through the through hole 8 of the front sections of the second outer copper bar 3 and the second inner copper bar 4 and the through hole of the busbar 92 of the switch device under inspection.

[0019] Preferably, Figure 8 As shown, the tail section of the first outer copper bar 1 and the tail section of the second outer copper bar 3 in the first bend 5 and the second bend 7 are integrated, forming a C-shaped structure for the first outer copper bar 1 and the second outer copper bar 3. The tail section of the first inner copper bar 2 and the tail section of the second inner copper bar 4 in the first bend 5 and the second bend 7 are integrated, forming a C-shaped structure for the first inner copper bar 2 and the second inner copper bar 4. The C-shaped structure simplifies the structure of the connection fixture and improves the efficiency of connecting the fixture to the busbar of the setting device and the busbar of the switchgear under inspection under working conditions where longitudinal spacing adjustment is not required.

[0020] Preferably, the connecting bolts 93 between the first bend 5 and the second bend 7, the connecting bolts 94 between the front ends of the first outer copper bar 1 and the first inner copper bar 2 and the setting device busbar 91, and the connecting bolts 95 between the front ends of the second outer copper bar 3 and the second inner copper bar 4 and the switchgear busbar 92 under inspection are all high-strength stainless steel bolts. The high-strength stainless steel bolts not only ensure connection reliability but also reduce eddy current losses in high-current magnetic fields, ensuring that the setting device can output the rated high current.

[0021] Preferably, the bending angle of the first bending portion 5 and the second bending portion 7 is 90°.

[0022] This connection fixture uses a first outer copper bar 1, a first inner copper bar 2, a second outer copper bar 3, and a second inner copper bar 4, instead of multi-strand braided soft copper wire, to connect the setting device busbar 91 and the switchgear busbar 92 under test. Each copper bar is 120 mm (width) x 10 mm (thickness). The setting device busbar 91 is clamped between the first outer copper bar 1 and the first inner copper bar 2. The clamping position is adjustable via slots 6 provided in the front sections of the first outer copper bar 1 and the first inner copper bar 2, enabling lateral adjustment of the setting device busbar 91. The first bend 5 and the second bend 7 can be offset by slots 71 provided in the second bend 7, allowing longitudinal adjustment of the spacing between the first outer copper bar 1 and the first inner copper bar 2 and the second outer copper bar 3 and the second inner copper bar 4. This lateral and longitudinal spacing adjustment allows for adaptability to different models and specifications of switchgear under test, enabling connection to the main circuit of the switchgear under test and eliminating the drawbacks of multi-strand braided soft copper wire.

[0023] By connecting the setting device busbar 91 and the busbar 92 of the switchgear under inspection through this connecting fixture, the output current of the setting device is greatly improved, and the maximum output current can reach 18050A, which is close to the design capacity; the flexibility and efficiency of the main circuit connection of the setting device are improved, and the maintenance workload is greatly reduced. The setting time of each circuit breaker is shortened from 8 hours to 3 hours, which can better meet the maintenance needs of on-site temporary power outage detection, realize efficient and convenient construction detection, and contribute to the standardized management of the maintenance work environment.
