Abstract: In order to achieve automatic detection of insulation defects in distribution network cables, a 10kV single-core cable is taken as the target, and the uneven characteristics of magnetic field and the generation principle of current harmonics in the metal shielding layer are studied in the presence of insulation defects of cables, and the stability of the application of automatic detection technology for cable insulation defects is verified through simulation analysis and experiments. The harmonic data automation analysis technology based on the mean clustering algorithm is used to realize rapid detection and location of cable insulation defects, initially realizing the automated charged insulation detection and providing support for improving the stability and safety of power supply.

Key words: distribution network cable, insulation defects, harmonic current, shielding layer, defect detection
