Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of circulating current monitoring technology, and in particular to a cable circulating current monitoring device. Background Technology
[0002] Cable circulating current refers to the induced electromotive force generated on the metal sheath of a high-voltage cable due to the alternating magnetic field produced by the current. If this magnetic field forms a path through the ground, a grounding circulating current will be generated on the metal sheath. Excessive cable circulating current can affect the cable's current carrying capacity and service life, and may even cause overheating and damage. The magnitude of cable circulating current is influenced by various factors, including the cable's contact resistance, grounding resistance, grounding method, and the length and arrangement of cable segments. Monitoring cable circulating current is necessary to protect and extend the cable's service life and prevent accidents.
[0003] In related technologies, the monitoring of circulating current in high-voltage cables is usually achieved by installing a grounding box on the grounding wire of the coaxial cable of the cable sheath. The grounding box is powered by external power supply or inductive power supply. This method involves large equipment size, inconvenient installation, and one set of equipment can only be used with one fixed type of grounding wire, resulting in limited adaptability.
