[0033] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the implementation of this utility model is not limited to the following embodiments, and any modifications and / or alterations made to this utility model will fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Example

[0034] like Figure 1 , 5 As shown, this utility model discloses a technical solution: an integrated partial discharge insulation temperature measurement and detection device for detecting the power supply operation status inside a switch cabinet, comprising: a detection host, a temperature sensor, an insulation sensor, and a partial discharge sensor.

[0035] The detection host is used to process data, including a housing 1 installed on the outside of the switch cabinet, and a display module 2, a button module 3, an alarm module 4, a data processing unit, and a communication module integrated on the housing 1.

[0036] The temperature sensor is a passive wireless temperature sensor, which is bundled to the three phase wires of the indoor cable of the switch cabinet. It is used to monitor the temperature change of the cable in real time, convert the temperature signal into an electrical signal, and transmit it to the data processing unit.

[0038] The partial discharge sensor is magnetically attached to the inner wall of the switch cabinet to receive ultra-high frequency electromagnetic wave signals generated by partial discharge inside the switch cabinet, convert them into electrical signals, and transmit them to the data processing unit.

[0039] By using temperature sensors, insulation sensors, and partial discharge sensors, the cable temperature, leakage current, and partial discharge status inside the switchgear can be monitored in real time, improving the accuracy and real-time performance of the monitoring. Example

[0040] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown in Figure 4, this utility model discloses another technical solution: an integrated partial discharge insulation temperature measurement and detection device. The difference from embodiment 1 is that the housing 1 is detachably installed on the guide rail 5. A horizontally arranged mounting groove 6 is provided in the middle of the front side of the guide rail 5. The upper and lower inner walls of the mounting groove 6 are provided with horizontal sliding grooves 7. The upper and lower sides of the back of the housing 1 are rotatably connected by a rotating shaft to two left and right limiting wheels 8 protruding from the upper and lower surfaces of the housing 1. The back of the limiting wheels 8 is flush with the back of the housing 1, and the limiting wheels 8 are rotatably connected in the sliding grooves 7. The detection host can be easily slidably installed along the guide rail 5, which is convenient for adjustment and fixing the position. In addition, the edges of the mounting groove 6 and the edges of the sliding grooves 7 are provided with inclined guide surfaces to facilitate the installation of the detection host.

[0041] Specifically, multiple heat dissipation holes 9 are evenly provided on the mounting groove 6 to improve the heat dissipation effect, and fixing holes 10 are provided on the upper and lower parts of the guide rail 5 to facilitate fixing the guide rail 5 to the outer wall of the switch cabinet or the wall with fasteners such as bolts. Example

[0042] like Figure 5As shown, this utility model discloses another technical solution, an integrated detection device for partial discharge insulation temperature measurement. The difference from embodiment 1 is that the detection device also includes a background detection system. The background detection system is connected to the detection host through an RS485 interface, a communication cable and a Modbus communication protocol to realize remote monitoring and data management functions.

[0043] Specifically, the data processing unit uses a microprocessor, which integrates a signal acquisition module, a data storage module, a data analysis module, and a communication control module. The signal acquisition module is responsible for acquiring data sent by the temperature sensor, partial discharge sensor, and insulation sensor. The data storage module is used to store the acquired historical data. The data analysis module performs real-time analysis on the acquired data to determine the operating status of the electrical equipment and generates corresponding alarm information based on the analysis results. The communication control module controls the communication module to interact with the temperature sensor.

[0044] Specifically, the temperature sensor uses wireless passive sensing technology and adopts the ZigBee wireless transmission protocol. The communication module and the temperature sensor share the same wireless frequency band, which is 433MHz.

[0045] Specifically, display module 2 is an LCD screen used to display in real time the cable temperature monitored by the temperature sensor, the leakage current value detected by the insulation sensor, and the intensity of the partial discharge ultra-high frequency electromagnetic wave signal received by the partial discharge sensor. At the same time, display module 2 also displays the operation status analysis results generated by the data analysis module, so that users can intuitively understand the operation status of the switchgear.

[0046] Specifically, alarm module 4 uses an audible and visual alarm method and is connected to the data analysis module. When the data analysis module determines that there is an abnormality in the power supply operation, alarm module 4 issues an alarm signal to remind the user to deal with the safety hazard in time.

[0047] Specifically, button module 3 includes function selection buttons and parameter setting buttons. The function selection buttons allow users to switch between display modules 2 to show different detection data and analysis results. The parameter setting buttons allow users to adjust preset threshold range parameters within the data processing unit to meet the needs of different users.

[0048] Specifically, the partial discharge sensor is an ultra-high frequency (UHF) detection sensor that employs a three-in-one UHF, TEV, and HFCT partial discharge sensing technology. It boasts advantages such as high sensitivity, high reliability, and strong anti-interference capability, enabling accurate detection of partial discharge within the switchgear. When partial discharge occurs in the switchgear, it generates nanosecond-level steep current pulses, exciting a wide-band electromagnetic wave. The UHF detection sensor (i.e., UHF sensor, TEV sensor, and HFCT sensor) detects the high-frequency electromagnetic wave band (300MHz-2000MHz), which effectively avoids corona interference and power frequency interference from the switchgear. Furthermore, the UHF, TEV, and HFCT sensors utilize non-contact monitoring, ensuring uninterrupted and reliable operation of the equipment.

[0049] The integrated partial discharge insulation temperature measurement and detection equipment provided in this application involves the following steps during installation: First, the guide rail 5 is installed on a suitable location on the outside of the switchgear or wall using bolts and other fasteners through the fixing holes 10. Then, the limiting wheels 8 on the upper and lower sides of the back of the detection host housing 1 are aligned with the sliding grooves 7 on the upper and lower inner walls of the mounting groove 6 on the front side of the guide rail 5. The housing 1 is then slid into the mounting groove 6 along the direction of the sliding groove 7, allowing the limiting wheels 8 to roll within the sliding groove 7 until the housing 1 is in place. This installation method facilitates the installation and disassembly of the detection host, and is convenient for subsequent maintenance and repair work. When installing the temperature sensor, it is installed in a bundled manner on the three phase lines of the cable in the switchgear cable compartment, ensuring that the temperature sensing element is in close contact with the cable to accurately sense changes in cable temperature. The temperature sensor utilizes wireless passive sensing technology, obtaining electrical energy from the electromagnetic environment around the cable through a built-in passive power-harvesting device. Powered by itself, the system uses the ZigBee wireless transmission protocol to convert temperature signals into electrical signals in the 433MHz wireless band and send them to the data processing unit of the detection host. During installation, the insulation sensor (micro-current sensor) is installed on the three phase lines of the cable inside the switchgear cable tray, enabling it to accurately detect leakage current in each phase line. The leakage current signal detected by the insulation sensor is processed, and the abnormal signal is transmitted to the data processing unit. During installation, the partial discharge sensor (ultra-high frequency detection sensor) is magnetically attached to the inner wall of the switchgear, enabling it to effectively receive ultra-high frequency electromagnetic wave signals generated by partial discharge inside the switchgear and convert them into electrical signals for transmission to the data processing unit. The partial discharge sensor employs a three-in-one partial discharge sensing technology combining UHF, TEV, and HFCT, ensuring high sensitivity and accuracy in detecting partial discharge signals.

[0050] During switchgear operation, temperature sensors monitor cable temperature in real time, converting the temperature signal into an electrical signal and transmitting it wirelessly via ZigBee to the signal acquisition module of the data processing unit. Insulation sensors detect leakage current in each phase line and transmit any detected abnormal signals to the signal acquisition module. Partial discharge sensors receive ultra-high frequency electromagnetic wave signals generated by partial discharge, convert them into electrical signals, and also send them to the signal acquisition module. The signal acquisition module is responsible for collecting these signals from different sensors. The data processing unit uses a microprocessor, and its internal data storage module stores the collected historical data for subsequent querying and analysis. The data analysis module performs real-time analysis of the collected temperature, leakage current, and partial discharge ultra-high frequency electromagnetic wave signals based on preset threshold ranges and algorithms. For example, when the cable temperature exceeds the preset normal temperature range, or the leakage current detected by the insulation sensor exceeds the set threshold, or the partial discharge signal intensity detected by the partial discharge sensor exceeds the normal range, the data analysis module determines that there is an abnormality in the power supply operation and generates corresponding alarm information.

[0051] Display module 2 is an LCD screen that displays in real time the cable temperature monitored by the temperature sensor, the leakage current value detected by the insulation sensor, and the intensity of the partial discharge ultra-high frequency electromagnetic wave signal received by the partial discharge sensor. It also displays the operation status analysis results generated by the data analysis module. Maintenance personnel can intuitively and comprehensively understand the operation status of the switchgear through the LCD screen. Alarm module 4 is connected to the data analysis module. When the data analysis module determines that there is an abnormality in the power supply operation, alarm module 4 issues an audible and visual alarm signal to remind maintenance personnel to pay attention and deal with it in time. Different types of abnormalities can be set with different audible and visual alarm modes so that maintenance personnel can quickly determine the type of abnormality.

[0052] The communication module uses the 433MHz wireless frequency band and transmits the data processed by the data processing unit to the background detection system remotely through the RS485 interface, communication cable and Modbus communication protocol. The background detection system can centrally manage and analyze the detection data of multiple switchgear, realize the remote monitoring function, and the operation and maintenance personnel can view the detailed operation data of the switchgear at any time through the background system, and promptly discover and deal with potential problems.

[0053] Maintenance personnel can operate the equipment via button module 3. The function selection button is used to switch between different detection data and analysis results displayed on display module 2. For example, it can switch between interfaces for cable temperature, leakage current, partial discharge signal strength, and operating status analysis results. The parameter setting button can adjust the preset threshold range parameters within the data processing unit to adapt to the operating characteristics and detection needs of different switchgear. For example, the alarm thresholds for temperature, leakage current, and partial discharge signals can be reasonably adjusted according to different switchgear models and operating environments.

[0054] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
