The invention provides a direct-current line fault ride-through method applied to a converter valve with an active energy
discharge function and a related device, and the method comprises the steps: starting a direct-current fault ride-through strategy in response to a direct-current line fault
signal; after the first direct-current fault ride-through strategy is started, energy release branches of the corresponding bridge arms are controlled to be switched according to the overall level of the
capacitor voltage of the sub-modules in the bridge arms; after the second
direct current fault ride-through strategy is started, a
direct current bias is superposed on the reference value of the
direct current controller; and waiting for a set time after the
DC fault is cleared, and exiting the
DC fault ride-through strategy. According to the invention, the switching of the energy release
resistor is controlled according to the
capacitor voltage level of the sub-module in the bridge arm, the
overvoltage of the sub-module is accurately suppressed, the excessive difference of the action frequency of the energy release
branch is avoided, and the uniform distribution of the released energy is ensured; meanwhile, a direct current bias is superposed on a reference value of a direct current controller at the initial stage of inputting a direct current fault ride-through strategy, so that direct current can quickly control
zero crossing, and direct current fault clearing is accelerated.
