The invention relates to an electrified test method and
system for hydrophobicity of a composite insulator based on a
power transmission line, and the method employs a high-resolution camera and precise water drop deposition to replace rough water spraying, and employs a
contact angle algorithm based on
curvature compensation to replace subjective comparison of human eyes, thereby improving the test precision, unifying the test standard, and improving the
test efficiency. Meanwhile, the whole testing process is autonomously executed by a
robot or remotely controlled by personnel on the ground, operation and maintenance personnel do not need to approach a high-
voltage electrified body, huge safety risks of a traditional method are thoroughly avoided, full
automation of the testing process is achieved, the operation and maintenance personnel do not need to carry
heavy equipment to go to the site, and the testing efficiency is greatly improved; moreover, the automatically generated quantitative data can be directly stored in a
database through networking, thereby facilitating the long-term and longitudinal
trend analysis and
state prediction of the hydrophobicity of the line insulator, and providing reliable data support for differentiated and intelligent operation and maintenance.
