The invention provides a series
capacitor compensation
power transmission line distance protection method. The method comprises the following steps that: the
voltage and current of a
power transmission line can be acquired in a real-time manner, and the
voltage sampling value and the current sampling value of a
power transmission line protection installation position (
circuit breaker) at each sampling time point can be obtained; and at the same time, power
transmission line fault detection is performed, if a fault occurs on the power
transmission line, fault location is performed so as to judge the position of the fault point. With the series
capacitor compensation power
transmission line distance protection method of the invention adopted, over
tripping caused by
series compensation capacitor short-circuit faults occurring in a forward direction can be avoided, and incorrect
tripping can be also avoided due to
series compensation capacitor short-circuit fault protection in a reverse direction, and therefore, the influence of
series compensation capacitors on distance protection can be eliminated. According to the series capacitor compensation power transmission line distance protection method of the invention, a pi-shaped
equivalent circuit of a series compensation line forward-direction fault is adopted; an iterative
algorithm is used for
distance measurement; and the position of the fault point with respect to the series compensation capacitors can be judged according to the discrete degree of the
distance measurement. Thus, with the series capacitor compensation power transmission line distance protection method adopted, the over
tripping and incorrect tripping of the distance protection can be reliably prevented, and the sensitivity of the protection can be improved.
