Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of non-destructive detection, and in particular to a data-driven high voltage cable aluminum sheath defect recognition method, system and medium. [Background technology]

[0002] High voltage cables are an important component of the power system and the part with the highest demand. They are composed of four parts: conductor, insulation layer, shielding layer and protective layer. The protective layer can be divided into an external protective layer and an internal protective layer. The external protective layer is generally PVC insulating material, and the internal protective layer is generally a metal layer, and usually uses a corrugated aluminum sheath. During the installation process and long-term exposure to complex engineering, the waterproof ability of the cable is greatly reduced, and electrochemical corrosion occurs during operation, causing corrosion defects on the surface of the corrugated aluminum sheath, and in severe cases, the cable will be short-circuited and cause a major accident. The aluminum sheath is wrapped in an insulating layer, and traditional detection methods cannot detect the corrosion damage of the aluminum sheath, so the introduction of ultrasonic guided wave detection technology to detect the damage of the cable aluminum sheath has become a popular direction in the prior art.
