Through the cooperation of the buried electrode and the external detection device, the online monitoring of the vacuum degree inside the vacuum interrupter is realized. The problem of power supply of the detection device is solved by charging the energy storage battery. The problem of data transmission is solved by using a wireless transmitting device. On the basis of theoretical research and experiments, the invention proposes a wireless detection device for the vacuum degree of the buried electrodes inside the vacuum interrupter with industrial application prospects, which can be applied in the field of on-line monitoring of the vacuum degree of the high-voltage vacuum interrupter.
