The invention discloses a
pilot protection method suitable for a T-type wiring
transmission line, which is characterized in that: (1) a
fast start element: the absolute value of the difference of ik, i<k-N> is more than the sum of the product of Ks and the absolute value of the difference of i<k-N>, i<k-2N> and Imk, wherein N is the number of sampling points of each period, and Imk is a fixed threshold, when any phase in the three-end current of the T-type wiring
transmission line meets the conditions, the
fast start element acts; and (2) protection action judgment conditions: the absolute value of
delta Ucd is less than the product of Krel, Zc and the absolute value of
delta Icd; and the absolute value of Icd is more than Iset, wherein
delta Ucd is equal to the sum of delta Um, delta Un and delta Up; delta Icd is equal to the sum of delta Im, delta In and delta Ip, Icd is equal to the sum of Im, In and Ip; the delta Um, delta Un and delta Up and delta Im, delta In and delta Ip are the failure
voltage component and the failure current component at the m, n, p buses of the T-type wiring
transmission line; Im, In and Ip are the steady-state current passing through the m, n and p buses, Krel is a reliability coefficient, ZC is the
equivalent capacitance of the line, Iset is a current set value, and Icd is the steady-state differential current of the three-end transmission line. Through the method, the
pilot protection sensitivity of the T-type wiring transmission line is not affected by the fault current and through current, and the sensitivity is improved.
