Intelligent Online Partial Discharge Detection and Sensor

In order to realize the online monitoring of partial discharge in solid switch cabinet, obtain the real partial discharge power and evaluate the insulation status of the switch cabinet, an online detection device based on partial discharge in solid switch cabinet was proposed. The ultrasonic sensor and resonant circuit used by the device to collect the high frequency signal generated when partial discharge occurs and the high frequency signal was converted into the voltage signal. The voltage signal was sent to the STM32 main control chip after data preprocessing and analog-to-digital conversion. Through the conversion of the collected electrical data, the local discharge quantity was obtained and displayed on LCD screen in real time. If the detected discharge power was greater than a set value, an alarm would be automatically issued to remind the on-site power personnel to pay attention to it and prevent major power accidents caused by insulation damage. From the experimental results, it was found that the value of intermittent partial discharge collected by the developed device was 63pC, which was basically consistent with the DMS data. The experimental results showed that the device had the characteristics of simple operation and signal processing speed, high testing data real-time, and low cost, which was suitable for the real-time monitoring of the high voltage equipment in internal partial discharge. It was convenient for operators to maintain the equipment and ensure the normal operation of the equipment, which was of great significance to improve the reliability of power supply.
