Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of testing technology for low-voltage feeder testing devices, and in particular to a special testing fixture for low-voltage feeder testing devices. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous development of smart grid technology, low-voltage feeder monitoring units (LTUs), as an important component of the power system, are of great significance for realizing the intelligent management of the power system. Currently, LTUs on the market are mainly used to monitor the status information of low-voltage branch feeders, such as parameters like current, voltage, and power, and upload this data to the master station system through communication networks, providing decision-making basis for grid dispatching and operation and maintenance.
[0003] Before an LTU is officially put into use, it needs to be tested to determine whether it meets the requirements. However, existing methods and technologies for testing LTUs have the following problems and shortcomings:
[0004] Currently, there is a lack of dedicated testing tools for testing LTUs on the market. Generally, general testing tools are used to test LTUs, which relies on manual operation, is time-consuming, and is prone to human error, resulting in inaccurate and unreliable test results. In addition, LTUs produced by different manufacturers have different communication protocols, and existing testing tools often only support a single standard or protocol, resulting in poor compatibility and difficulty in testing all functional characteristics of LTUs, especially in terms of testing capabilities for special functions and protocol consistency.
[0005] Therefore, this application provides a dedicated test fixture for a low-voltage feeder testing device to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems that existing testing tools rely heavily on manual labor, are time-consuming, prone to errors, and produce inaccurate and unreliable test results. Existing testing tools often only support a single standard or protocol, have poor compatibility, and are difficult to conduct comprehensive testing.
[0007] This utility model provides a dedicated testing fixture for a low-voltage feeder testing device, including a test box. The test box is connected to a host computer via a communication line. The test box includes a housing, with a switch and control button on the surface of the housing. Wiring terminals are provided on both sides of the housing. A power supply module is installed in the test box, which is connected to a serial port server. The serial port server is connected to a power source, which is connected to a CT box. The CT box is connected to a testing unit, which is connected to the wiring terminals. The wiring terminals are connected to the low-voltage feeder testing device (LTU) under test, thereby testing the low-voltage feeder testing device (LTU).
[0008] The serial port server is a one-to-eight serial port server, which can work with the host computer to communicate independently with the monitoring unit of each test position, greatly improving the detection efficiency.
[0009] The beneficial effects of the special testing fixture for a low-voltage feeder testing device provided by this utility model are:
[0010] By adopting an automated testing process, manual operations are reduced, test results can be automatically displayed, and a one-to-eight serial port server can be set up. By adopting an integrated testing approach, multiple LTUs can be tested in parallel at the same time, which greatly improves the speed and efficiency of testing.
[0011] Ensure that the test equipment can fully cover all functional characteristics of the LTU, including special functions and protocol conformance testing; support multiple communication protocols, and have interchangeable hardware interfaces to adapt to LTU testing from different manufacturers, thereby enhancing compatibility.
