description Abstract To address the limitations of traditional partial discharge (PD) detection methods for switchgear, which fail to meet the requirements for real-time monitoring, rapid assessment, sample fusion, and joint analysis in practical applications, a joint PD recognition method of switchgear based on edge computing and deep learning is proposed. An edge collaborative defect identification architecture for switchgear is constructed, which includes the terminal device side, terminal collection side, edge-computing side, and cloud-computing side. The PD signal of switchgear is extracted based on UHF sensor and broadband pulse current sensor on the terminal collection side. Multidimensional features are obtained from these signals and a high-dimensional feature space is constructed based on feature extraction and dimensionality reduction on the edge-computing side. On the cloud side, the deep belief network (DBN)-based switchgear PD defect identification method is proposed and the PD samples acquired on the edge side are transmitted in real time to the cloud for training. Upon completion of the training, the resulting model is transmitted back to the edge side for inference, thereby facilitating real-time joint analysis of PD defects across multiple switchgear units. Verification of the proposed method is conducted using PD samples simulated in the laboratory. The results indicate that the DBN proposed in this paper can recognize PDs in switchgear with an accuracy of 88.03%, and under the edge computing architecture, the training time of the switchgear PD defect type classifier can be reduced by 44.28%, overcoming the challenges associated with traditional diagnostic models, which are characterized by long training durations, low identification efficiency, and weak collaborative analysis capabilities.
