The invention discloses a substation area
differential protection method for an intelligent substation, which comprises a big
differential protection mode taking the substation as the principal thing, and more than two small
differential protection modes taking the substations as the principal things; the big differential protection mode serves as a starting element, any one small differential protection mode serves as an action element; when the two conditions are satisfied simultaneously, the differential protection outputs action; the small differential protection
modes are still failure selecting elements; the range of the big differential protection mode is delimitated by
high voltage side current of each
transformer and all outlet current on the medium
voltage side generating line and the
low voltage side generating line, of the substation, (not comprising buscouple and segment); the ranges of the small differential protection
modes are delimitated by corresponding
high voltage side current of the
transformer, and all corresponding outlet current on the generating lines connected with main change medium
voltage side and
low voltage side, (not comprising buscouple and segment). The method not only can thoroughly protect the substation, but also can close the failure
transformer in a targeted manner, is small in influence range for the
electricity using user, and is particularly suitable for the substation provided with two or more than two transformers to use.
