Monitoring System Design for XLPE Power Cable Faults Based on Virtual Instruments

摘要

With the vigorous development of power transmission project, the security and stability of power transmission lines appear to be more important than ever before. As one of the most significant devices in power transmission lines, the security guarantee of power cables is of great importance. Therefore, as is shown in this paper, a monitoring system for XLPE power cable faults that consists of a hybrid sensor, a signal processor and a monitor based on virtual instruments has been designed, which can be quite effective in electric power overhaul.
