Abstract
Description

[0002] In the prior art, the current transformer alignment test of the substation usually uses the method of connecting the positive pole of the battery to the same-name terminal of the secondary winding of the GIS current transformer, and the negative pole to the other end of the winding column, and then connecting the DC meter to the current terminal block, and the positive pole of the red pen of the DC meter is connected to the secondary same-name terminal. When the circuit is connected, the primary current flows into the same-name terminal, and the secondary current flows out of the same-name terminal. The pointer swings to the right. After stabilization, when the circuit is disconnected, the pointer swings to the left, and the secondary same-name terminal is marked correctly. If the pointer swings in the opposite direction, the secondary same-name terminal should be at the other end. However, when conducting tests on GIS equipment, it is often necessary to disassemble the secondary line on the current transformer body side to carry out the alignment work due to limited space. There is no place to place the battery. After the alignment is completed, the connection is restored. If the battery falls into the gap between the GIS equipment, it is extremely difficult to pick up. The test is very inconvenient, affecting the efficiency of the debugging work. In addition, the pen tip of the test line can easily accidentally touch the battery and cause a short circuit, posing a safety risk.
[0003] At the same time, the traditional wiring method has the following problems: workers working at height to disconnect wires will result in long idle time and heavy workload. During the disconnection process, there are risks such as twisting off the terminal, screw stripping, loose wiring, and restoration errors.
