Underground drainage pipeline leakage detection method and device

The invention provides a method for simply and conveniently detecting nonmetal underground drainage pipeline leakage and a device. The method comprises the following steps: a detector is used for detecting the traverse pressure of a buried pipeline with water, an independent resistance measuring apparatus is used for detecting a soil resistance value above the buried pipeline, a detection electrode is inserted for adjusting the size of a detection electric current sent out by the detector according to different soil resistance values, an electric current detection device which is connected to the detection electrode is used for collecting leakage electric currents in real time and transmitting data of the electric current detection device to the measuring apparatus, and a computer is used for analyzing so as to obtain the accurate position of a damage pipeline.
