Abstract

The invention provides a small current grounding system single-phase earth fault direction detecting method utilizing the linearity relation between a line zero sequence current and a voltage derivative and belongs to the field of relay protection of power distribution networks. The linearity relation between upstream and downstream voltages and currents of a fault point is analyzed when a single-phase earth fault occurs in an unearthed and arc suppression coil grounded system, a method for fault direction detection by utilizing the linearity relation between the line zero sequence current andthe voltage derivative at a detection point is provided. The zero-sequence voltage and zero-sequence current at each detection point are acquired, linear fitting is conducted on a zero-sequence current sample value sequence and a corresponding zero-sequence voltage difference value sequence, it is judged whether the detection points having the fit goodness greater than a threshold value and the fitting function slope greater than 0 are located at the downstream of fault points or not, if not, the detection points are located at the upstream of the fault points. The method can be simultaneously suitable for low-resistance and high-resistance earth faults of a small current grounding system, improves the adaptability of a fault direction detection algorithm and has a wide actual applicationvalue.

Reliable detection of single-phase ground faults has always been difficult due to weak fault currents, unstable arcs, etc.

Among the existing ground fault direction detection methods, the detection method based on steady-state information needs to use the signal of a long time after the fault, the detection speed is low, and the effect is not ideal; while the high frequency (hundreds of Hz) based on ground fault The direction detection method of the transient electrical quantity needs to filter out the power frequency component during detection, which may easily cause information omission, especially when the high-impedance grounding is used, because the frequency of the fault transient signal is close to the power frequency and the amplitude is small, The direction detection method based on high-frequency transient electrical quantities is not applicable; in addition, the patent "A method for locating high-resistance ground faults in small current grounding systems based on the amplitude comparison of transient current projection components" proposes a method based on transient current projection components
