The lightning warning system for coal mines is an important technical equipment for ensuring safe production in mining areas. Especially in open working environments such as open-pit coal mines, lightning disasters may cause serious casualties and equipment damage. Traditional lightning warning systems mostly adopt simple threshold methods. Although they can achieve basic warning functions, they are prone to false alarms under complex weather conditions, affecting the accuracy of the warnings. The application of the electric field differential combined with the threshold optimization algorithm has effectively enhanced the accuracy of lightning warning, providing a more reliable technical guarantee for the safe production of coal mines.

The electric field differential technology of the WX-LD1 coal mine lightning early warning system can monitor the changing trend of atmospheric electric field intensity in real time and capture the subtle characteristics of electric field changes through differential operations. Unlike the traditional method that solely relies on the absolute value of the electric field intensity, this dynamic monitoring approach can better distinguish between real lightning activities and weather disturbances. When a specific pattern of change in the electric field intensity is detected, the system will make a comprehensive judgment based on the preset threshold values, significantly reducing the probability of false alarms caused by interference factors such as rainy days, strong winds, snowy days or dust.

In practical applications, the optimized algorithm demonstrates obvious performance advantages. The system can detect the initial signs of lightning formation earlier, buying precious time for emergency response. Meanwhile, its anti-interference ability has been significantly enhanced, and it can maintain a high accuracy rate of early warning even under adverse weather conditions. This reliability is particularly important for high-risk industries like coal mines, as it can reduce unnecessary production disruptions and ensure timely warnings when real danger strikes.

The intelligent features of the system are also worthy of attention. By continuously learning historical data, the algorithm can constantly optimize its judgment logic to adapt to the geographical and climatic characteristics of different mining areas. The system can also automatically adjust its sensitivity based on real-time monitoring data, raising the warning level during periods of frequent lightning activities and reducing the possibility of false alarms during relatively safe periods. This adaptive ability enables the early warning system to flexibly respond to various complex situations.
