AI Technical Summary
Existing power cables cannot distinguish between internal short circuits and external fires in temperature monitoring, and traditional metal armor layers are heavy and prone to corrosion, resulting in high requirements for installation.
The wiring conduit uses fiber-reinforced resin composite material, has four insulated wire cores, and employs temperature-sensing optical fiber cables laid inside the conduit. Temperature changes are monitored using a Raman time-domain reflectometer, and refractory mortar is filled between the wiring conduit and the insulated wire cores to form a lightweight and corrosion-resistant structure.
This technology enables the reduction of cable weight without compromising cable strength, while also allowing real-time monitoring of cable temperature changes, distinguishing between internal and external sources of abnormal high temperatures, thus improving the accuracy of fire early warning and the corrosion resistance of the cable.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] The embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the drawings and examples. Obviously, the examples are only used to specifically introduce the technical solutions of the present application, but not limit the scope of protection of the present application.
[0025] Embodiment
[0026] Reference Figure 1 As shown in the figure, a composite material low-voltage cable with temperature self-sensing capability comprises a wiring tube 1, insulated cores 2, temperature sensing optical fiber cables 3 and fire clay fillers 4.
[0027] Reference Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the four insulated cores 2 in the wiring tube 1 are arranged in a square, and the insulated core 2 comprises a conductor 21 and an ethylene-propylene rubber insulation layer 22. The ethylene-propylene rubber material has a long-term allowable working temperature of 90 degrees and a short-circuit thermal stability allowable temperature of 250 degrees, and is suitable for large temperature cycles, and has good cold resistance and high temperature resistance.
[0028] Reference Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the four temperature sensing optical fiber cables 3 are arranged at an interval of 90 degrees in the wall of the wiring tube 1, and one temperature sensing optical fiber cable 3 is arranged in the middle of the arrangement of the four insulated cores 2. Each temperature sensing optical fiber cable 3 is arranged longitudinally from the front end to the rear end of the cable, and is connected at the head and tail to form a longitudinal optical fiber. The longitudinal optical fiber is connected with a Raman optical time domain reflectometer through a signal transmission optical fiber, and the temperature change of the temperature sensing optical fiber cable along the line is monitored in real time. When a fire occurs outside the cable or a short circuit fault occurs in the internal core of the cable, the temperature at the position will rise, which will be monitored by the temperature sensing optical fiber. If the temperature monitored by the temperature sensing optical fiber cable arranged in the middle of the arrangement of the four insulated cores 2 is higher than that monitored by the temperature sensing optical fiber cable arranged in the wall of the wiring tube 1, it indicates that a short circuit may occur in the internal core of the cable, and the circuit of the cable at the position should be disconnected and the cable line should be repaired. If the temperature monitored by the temperature sensing optical fiber cable arranged in the middle of the arrangement of the four insulated cores 2 is lower than that monitored by the temperature sensing optical fiber cable arranged in the wall of the wiring tube 1, it indicates that a fire may occur outside the cable, and the circuit of the cable at the position should be disconnected, and a person should be sent to check whether a fire occurs around the position of the cable.
[0029] Reference Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the gap between the wiring tube 1 and the insulated core 2 is filled with fire clay fillers 4, which can effectively delay the burning of the cable by external flames, expand the fire, or prevent external fires when a short circuit occurs in the internal core.
[0030] Reference Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the wiring tube 1 is made of fiber reinforced resin composite material, specifically: the fiber layers 11 along the circumferential direction of the wiring tube and the fiber layers 12 along the length direction of the wiring tube are arranged alternately, and epoxy resin 13 is brushed between each layer of fiber layers. The wiring tube 1 greatly reduces the self-weight of the cable without reducing the tensile strength of the cable, and is resistant to high temperature and corrosion.
[0031] Reference Figure 3 As shown, the temperature sensing optical fiber cable 3 is disposed between the fiber layer 11 and the fiber layer 12 and is integrated with the wiring tube 1 by brushing epoxy resin 13. The temperature sensing optical fiber cable 3 includes an armored sheath 31 and a temperature sensing optical fiber 32, the temperature sensing optical fiber 32 is located in the armored sheath 31, and the two are not bonded with each other. The armored sheath 31 can protect the temperature sensing optical fiber 32 from being damaged by external force. There is no connection between the armored sheath 31 and the temperature sensing optical fiber 32, so the temperature sensing optical fiber 32 is only affected by temperature, eliminating the influence of optical fiber deformation on the temperature measurement accuracy of the temperature sensing optical fiber 32.
[0032] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present application, not the limitation of the protection scope of the present application, any equivalent replacement improvement made on the basis of the technical scheme claimed in the claims of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
