A three-dimensional inspection simulation system of substation

Based on the analysis to the traditional inspection way of the substation simulation system, the paper designs and realizes a new 3-D inspection simulation system of substation. A virtual inspector is designed by 3-D model animation technology to implement the inspection of the devices. The bounding box technology is applied to set the dangerous regions of the devices. The collision detection technology is also used to judge the safety of the patrol routes. Users can interact with equipments of the virtual substation such as inquiring the equipmentspsila information, recording the equipmentspsila problems and so on. This system can be used for the training of the substation inspector.
