Abstract:

This paper presented a novel design of insulator detecting robot for EHV/UHV transmission line. With the features of compact in size, easy operation and applicability for the zero value detecting of insulator string, the proposed robot had efficient walking and detection methods. Maintenance personnel only needed to cooperate with the detection procedures of the robot, and placed the robot on the insulator that needed to be overhauled. Then the robot would automatically detect one by one, and immediately triggered intelligent insulator detection unit, calculated the resistance value of each insulator. Software simulation and hardware experiment show that this insulator detecting robot can achieve intelligent security detection, which has important social and economic benefits for ensuring the safe and stable operation of power system.

Key words: high voltage transmission line, insulator detection, detecting robot, automatic control system
