The invention discloses an intelligent line fault detection method for an active power distribution network, and belongs to the technical field of line fault detection, and the method comprises the steps: S1, taking the fault
voltage and the
voltage fundamental wave of each
measurement point of an active power distribution network line as characteristic indexes for judging the operation state of the line; s2, extracting
frequency band voltage peak values, inter-phase voltage differences and sixth
harmonic components of line measurement points in normal and fault states as fault feature samples; s3, performing data preprocessing; s4, splitting the
training set and the
test set; s5, inputting the classified
data set into a LightGBM (LightGBM) model for classification; s6, combining a plurality of independent
decision tree classifiers in the LightGBM to generate a strong classifier; s7, inputting the output value of the strong classifier into the DNN for learning and training; s8, performing fault
detection performance evaluation; and S9, outputting a fault detection result. The problems that after a large number of
distributed power supplies are connected to the power distribution network, the
system topological structure is complex, and line faults are difficult to locate are solved.
