Development and Application of Partial Discharge Detection Robot in Switchgear

The partial discharge detection of switchgear can only depend on manual operation at present, and there exist many problems such as large workload, low detection efficiency and poor detection quality. This paper proposed a robot for partial discharge detection of switchgears can solve those above-mentioned problems. Based on the actual problems in the field, the device is developed, meanwhile the article discussed the design of the robot overall scheme, function and key technology of each module in detail, finally applied to field test. It has significance of engineering practice.
