Abstract
With the rapid expansion of the scale of the power grid, the efficiency of fault diagnosis has been severely challenged by the large amount of inspection image data generated by intelligent devices such as drones and inspection robots. In order to improve the efficiency of fault diagnosis for power equipment in substations, a new method for intelligently diagnosing different types of faults in power equipment is proposed. For circuit breakers and insulators, YOLOv4 is selected as the target detection model. To improve the detection performance of the YOLOv4 model, this paper improves it: the Cross Stage Partial (CSP) structure is introduced in the Spatial Pyramid Pooling (SPP) module of the neck of the YOLOv4 model. The experimental results show that after using the optimal learning rate decay strategy, the mAP and frames per second (FPS) of the improved YOLOv4 model are better than the original YOLOv4 and PP‐YOLO model. Finally, an intelligent diagnosis terminal system for power equipment faults is developed. Through the target recognition and rapid extraction of equipment temperature, the intelligent diagnosis of thermal faults of equipment is realized. This method is especially suitable for accurate fault diagnosis of more power equipment, and has potential huge applicability in the field of power equipment diagnosis. © 2022 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.
