With the widespread coverage and use of electricity information collection systems, a large number of different phenomena and faults need to be solved in construction and operation maintenance. At present, the operation and maintenance work to solve on-site faults mainly relies on the specific analysis and solution of operation and maintenance personnel on site, which depends on their personal business level, resulting in a large workload, high difficulty, and easy errors.

In response to this situation, based on the Q/GDW374.2-2009 "Technical Specification for Centralized Meter Reading Terminals" standard of State Grid Corporation of China, an "Intelligent Testing Tool for Electricity Information Collection System" has been designed to enable power supply company operation and maintenance personnel to automatically analyze and quickly locate on-site problems, propose solutions, reduce dependence on the personal business level of operation and maintenance personnel, reduce workload, lower maintenance difficulty, and improve work efficiency.

When dealing with on-site troubleshooting, the testing tool will automatically provide corresponding detection operation methods and solutions based on the specific meter terminal information in the installed task work order file, and ultimately verify whether the fault has been resolved. The specific analysis and processing process will be automatically recorded and can be installed in the electricity information collection system. Based on the fault information table generated by the main station of the electrical information collection system, a task work order can be formed and downloaded to the testing tool.

The testing tool has the characteristics of being portable, easy to carry, and easy to operate, making it a good helper for on-site operation and maintenance personnel.

The testing tool is compatible with the terminal operation and maintenance manual reading machine function, which can read and maintain terminals and electricity meters, and solve on-site terminal faults.

　　·Terminal installation and debugging

Set terminal communication/operation/meter reading parameters during terminal installation, rotation, and fault replacement, and complete on-site terminal debugging work.

　　·Terminal fault detection

Can analyze and detect the working status, operating parameters, and online status of faulty terminals during the new installation and debugging process or operation, and eliminate terminal operation faults.

　　·Terminal meter reading fault detection

Can analyze and detect meter reading parameters during the installation and debugging process or during operation, and troubleshoot communication faults in local channels, collectors, and energy meters.

　　·Information exchange function with the backend

Receive work orders issued by the backend main station, install the fault handling status and results. Retrieve frozen data from concentrators and energy meters, and supplement the backend master station.

The intelligent testing tool for electricity information collection is used for on-site installation and debugging of electricity information collection terminals, terminal fault location, meter reading fault location, and communication environment testing. It can receive maintenance work orders issued by the electricity information collection system backend, interact with the main station to complete remote debugging, and install fault records.
