Ultrasonic and UHF are suitable for detecting the insulation state of GIS (gas insulated switchgear). As an important component of modern power systems, the reliability of GIS is crucial to the safe operation of the power grid. Due to factors such as long-term operation, harsh environmental conditions and manufacturing defects, the insulation state of GIS may change, which may lead to failures and accidents in the power system. Therefore, timely and accurate detection of the insulation state of GIS is of great significance for preventing accidents and maintaining the stable operation of the power grid.

Ultrasonic detection is one of the commonly used methods for detecting the insulation state of GIS. When the insulation state of GIS changes, air or gas breakdown, gas discharge, discharge burning and other phenomena will occur inside it. Ultrasonic detection determines whether the insulation state inside the GIS equipment is normal by emitting and receiving ultrasonic signals. Under normal circumstances, ultrasonic waves propagate through the insulating medium of the equipment, and when there is insulation damage or discharge, ultrasonic waves will be reflected, refracted and scattered, thereby detecting abnormal insulation conditions.

UHF (ultra-high frequency) technology is also a commonly used method for detecting the insulation state of GIS. UHF sensors can detect partial discharge phenomena inside GIS equipment. By collecting and analyzing the spectrum characteristics of UHF signals, it can be determined whether there is a risk of failure in the insulation state. Partial discharge is a sign of deteriorating insulation conditions. By monitoring and locating the source of partial discharge, early warning of insulation problems can be provided to avoid more serious failures.

In summary, ultrasonic and UHF technologies, as effective means of GIS insulation status detection, can timely detect changes in the insulation status of GIS equipment, help power system operators take corresponding maintenance and repair measures, and ensure the reliable operation of the power grid. In the future, with the continuous advancement and innovation of technology, GIS insulation status detection methods will be further improved to provide more reliable protection for the safety and stability of the power system.
