Abstract:Auxiliary power system of substation is the key to ensure the safe and stable operation of substation, but the leakage current in the cable may cause serious accidents such as channel fire. And the fixed monitoring device has many disadvantages, such as high cost and difficult popularization. Aiming at the problem of accurate detection of leakage current of auxiliary power system, a new leakage current detection system of auxiliary power system is developed. This system is composed of multiple wireless acquisition terminals and has the functions of multi-channel synchronous acquisition, automatic data communication, current vector sum calculation, which can realize the accurate detection of leakage current and the accurate positioning of defects in auxiliary power system, so as to eliminate the potential accidents in time. In order to verify the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed system, the actual detection is carried out in the substation site, and many potential current leakage problems in auxiliary power system are found and processed. The results show that this system can quickly, effectively and accurately detect the operation of auxiliary power system and is helpful to ensure the safe and stable operation of substation, which has high economy and practicability.
