Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of distribution network fault location, and particularly to a distribution network fault location method based on traveling wave detection. Background Art

[0002] With the intelligent development of the distribution network, the operation and maintenance of the distribution network face higher requirements. Distribution network fault location is a key link to ensure the safe and stable operation of the power system. Traditional fault location methods mostly rely on high-precision synchronous clock devices, such as GPS systems, or perform single-point measurements through local detection devices. However, with the increasing complexity and diversity of the distribution network, especially in complex multi-branch and long-distance environments, traditional fault location methods are difficult to meet the requirements of accuracy and efficiency.

[0003] There are some obvious deficiencies in the existing distribution network fault location technologies. First of all, most traditional methods rely on synchronous clocks, which require the clocks of each detection device to be highly synchronized, increasing the cost of equipment and the difficulty of installation and maintenance. Secondly, existing methods usually adopt a fixed wave speed assumption, ignoring the dynamic influence of line type, conductor material and environmental factors on the wave speed, resulting in large positioning errors. In addition, traditional methods still rely on a single criterion in feature extraction and fault wavehead identification, with poor anti-interference ability and being easily affected by noise interference and signal loss, thus reducing the accuracy and reliability of fault location.

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a distribution network fault location method based on traveling wave detection, which can accurately identify effective fault waveheads and dynamically compensate for wave speed and clock errors, significantly improving the fault location accuracy and reliability in complex distribution network environments.
