Research on Fault Diagnosis of Switchgear Based on Temperature Cloud Image Technology

Abstract

In the process of power system operation, contact aging, partial discharge and overcurrent faults are the main causes of switch cabinet faults. At the same time, it is difficult to install sensors inside the switch cabinet due to its closed operation. In this paper, in order to solve the over current problem of switchgear, according to the principle of high current heating, the thermal flow model of power switchgear is established, and the characteristics of heat flow inside the switchgear are studied. The infrared temperature detector is designed to collect the surface temperature cloud map of the switchgear. Combined with the internal heat flow law of the switchgear, the over current phenomenon in the switchgear is judged, so as to judge the operation state of the switchgear. In order to verify the correctness of the theory proposed in this paper, the operation state of the fault switch cabinet is designed for detection and comparative analysis. The test results show that the heat change caused by the over-current fault can be accurately fed back to the surface of the switch cabinet, which can be used as an effective means to diagnose the fault of the switch cabinet.
