Abstract:Lightning arrester is the main equipment for overvoltage prevention and control in power systems. The existing monitoring devices for lightning arrester can realize real-time monitoring of current and voltage, but lack further data analysis functions, and most online monitoring devices use voltage transformers to monitor overvoltage online, which has a certain[JP] impact on the performance of primary equipment. A device for overvoltage analysis based on current monitoring at tail end of lightning arrester is designed. It uses the current transformer to collect the current at the end of broadband and designs a local edge computing unit with a builtin high-frequency sampling chip and an intelligent program. And the unit realizes the intelligent inversion of the head-end voltage based on the tail-end current monitoring results and then realizes the data analysis of overvoltage process, which provides the basis for the overvoltage prevention and control.
