Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of circuit breaker technology, specifically to an online monitoring system for circuit breakers. Background Technology
[0002] A circuit breaker is an important electrical device, also known as an automatic switch. It functions as both a manual switch and an automatic protection against undervoltage, overload, and short circuit. Circuit breakers protect power lines and motors by automatically disconnecting the circuit in case of severe overload, short circuit, or undervoltage faults. In electrical circuits, circuit breakers protect appliances from overcurrent and overvoltage. In the event of a short circuit or severe overload, the circuit breaker will disconnect the circuit, effectively protecting the appliances in the circuit. During a short circuit, the magnetic field generated by the large current (typically 10 to 12 times the rated current) overcomes the counterforce spring, causing the trip unit to activate the operating mechanism and the switch to trip instantaneously.
[0003] However, traditional circuits only operate to disconnect and protect the circuit in response to sudden abnormal voltage or current. They do not record the number of trips or the abnormal voltage or current data for each trip. Therefore, since traditional circuits do not record this abnormal data, when frequent trips occur, workers need to search for the cause of the line abnormality on the corresponding line section. This is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also has low fault inspection efficiency and cannot quickly make a comprehensive judgment on the cause of the line abnormality based on the trip data.
[0004] Therefore, an online monitoring system for circuit breakers is needed to address this problem. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an online monitoring system for circuit breakers. This invention uses voltage and current sensors connected to the circuit breaker's terminals. Each time a circuit breaker breaks, the voltage and current sensors record abnormal data, which is then transmitted to a server for data storage via a wireless data transmission device. Operators can connect to the server via a smart terminal or PC to query the abnormal data. Maintenance workers can determine the cause of the line abnormality by examining the characteristics of the abnormal data. This system allows maintenance workers to quickly identify and address line faults, saving time and effort, with high data query efficiency, simple and convenient operation, and strong practicality.
[0006] This utility model is implemented as follows:
[0007] An online monitoring system for circuit breakers includes a circuit breaker body and a monitoring device fixedly mounted on one side of the circuit breaker body. The monitoring device includes a housing, a display screen on the housing, indicator lights below the display screen, and control buttons below the indicator lights. Voltage and current sensors are installed inside the monitoring device and are connected to the circuit breaker's terminals via connecting wires. During installation, data can be set via the control buttons, and the operating status of the voltage and current sensors is displayed via the indicator lights.
[0008] A control processing unit is connected to the voltage and current sensor. The display screen and indicator lights are both connected to the output of the control processing unit. The control buttons are connected to the input of the control processing unit. A wireless data transmission device is provided at the bottom of the monitoring device. The wireless data transmission device is connected to the output of the control processing unit. The control processing unit is connected to a monitoring terminal through the wireless data transmission device. The monitoring terminal includes a server connected to the wireless data transmission device. The server is connected to a PC and wirelessly connected to a smart terminal.
[0009] Furthermore, the control processing unit adopts an STM32 type control processing unit, and the voltage and current sensor adopts a 5SFG0980B12000x type voltage and current sensor. The wireless data transmission device adopts a 4G DTU, and the 4G DTU adopts an MGT571 type 4G DTU. The smart terminal is a smartphone or tablet computer, and there is at least one smart terminal.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By connecting the circuit breaker's wiring port with a voltage and current sensor, abnormal data is recorded each time a circuit breaker is broken. Then, the abnormal data is transmitted to the server for data storage via a wireless data transmission device. Staff can connect to the server to query the abnormal data through a smart terminal or PC. Maintenance workers can judge the cause of the line abnormality by viewing the characteristics of the abnormal data. This allows maintenance workers to quickly identify and grasp the line fault, saving time and effort, with high data query efficiency, simple and convenient operation, and strong practicality.
