AI Technical Summary
After a 10kV distribution line trips, patrol personnel need to inspect the entire line on-site to locate the fault point, resulting in a large workload and low efficiency.
By reading the telemetry and telesignal data of the tie switch in real time through the SCADA system, the fault type can be determined. The SCADA system can also be used to automatically close or open the switch to narrow down the fault range and generate a fault line segment diagram. Patrol personnel only need to repair the fault line segment.
Quickly and accurately locate faulty line sections, reduce the workload of patrol personnel, improve the speed of fault location and repair efficiency, and reduce the need for on-site inspection of the entire line.
Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power distribution line faults, and more particularly to a method for locating and restoring faults in 10kV power distribution lines. Background Technology
[0002] In the power distribution field, 10kV distribution lines frequently experience outages. These are typically resolved through on-site inspections by specialized patrol personnel. This process requires manual location of the fault point along the entire distribution line, followed by repair to restore normal power operation. Because patrol personnel must physically inspect the entire distribution line to locate the fault and restore power, this process is labor-intensive and inefficient. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for fault location and restoration of 10kV distribution lines, which effectively solves the problems of large workload and low efficiency in existing 10kV distribution lines where, after a trip is detected, patrol personnel need to inspect the entire distribution line on-site to find the fault point and restore power distribution.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is: a method for fault location and recovery of 10kV distribution lines, comprising the following steps:
[0005] Step S1: Read the telemetry and telesignal values of all tie switches on the 10kV distribution line in real time through the SCADA system; when a tie switch changes from closed to open, first define the tie switch as a trip switch; and then proceed to step S2.
[0006] Step S2: After the tripping switch trips, read the status of all tie switches on the 10kV distribution line where the tripping switch is located through the SCADA system, find the tie switch that has voltage on the side away from the tripping switch and no voltage on the side adjacent to the tripping switch, then define the tie switch as the original hot standby switch; and proceed to step S3.
[0007] Step S3: Close the original hot standby switch; if after closing the original hot standby switch, the other connecting switches on the distribution line between the original hot standby switch and the trip switch are in the closed position, then the tripping of the trip switch is determined to be a momentary fault; then by first closing the trip switch, and then switching the state of the original hot standby switch from the closed position to the open position, the normal operation of the distribution line can be restored.
[0008] If, after closing the original hot standby switch, the state of one of the tie switches on the distribution line between the original hot standby switch and the trip switch changes from closed to open, then the line between that tie switch and the trip switch is determined to be a faulty line; then, after the patrol personnel repair the fault point on-site, the original operation mode of the distribution line can be restored.
[0009] If the original hot standby switch changes from closed to open after being closed, the power distribution line between the original hot standby switch and the trip switch is determined to be a faulty line. After the patrol personnel repair the fault point on site, the original operation mode of the power distribution line is restored. The closing and switching from closed to open operations are both implemented by the SCADA system.
[0010] Furthermore, step S3 can also be: before closing the thermal standby switch, switch the status of all the contact switches in the closed position on the distribution line between the original thermal standby switch and the trip switch from the closed position to the open position; then close the original thermal standby switch. If the original thermal standby switch changes from the closed position to the open position after closing, then the distribution line between the original thermal standby switch and the trip switch is defined as a faulty line segment.
[0011] If the original hot standby switch operates normally after being closed, the tie switches are sequentially switched from open to closed in the direction from the original hot standby switch to the trip switch. The next tie switch is closed only when the previous tie switch is closed and operating normally. If all tie switches operate normally after being closed, the fault is determined to be an instantaneous fault. The trip switch is closed first, and then the state of the original hot standby switch is switched from closed to open. At this point, the normal operation of the power distribution line is restored. If a tie switch changes from closed to open after being closed, the power distribution line from that tie switch to the trip switch is defined as a faulty line segment. After the patrol personnel repair the fault point on-site, the original operation mode of the power distribution line is restored.
[0012] To further improve fault repair efficiency, when it is necessary to restore the original operation mode of the power distribution line after the fault point is repaired on-site by the patrol personnel, a power distribution line diagram of the faulty line section is generated and distributed to the patrol personnel.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: First, it can determine whether a fault is transient and can be repaired directly through the SCADA system. Second, if it is not a transient fault, it can quickly and accurately locate the faulty line segment, narrowing the fault location from the entire 10kV distribution line to the faulty line segment. This greatly reduces the workload of patrol personnel, eliminating the need to inspect the entire 10kV distribution line on-site; simply repairing the faulty line segment restores the normal operation of the distribution line. This effectively reduces the workload of patrol personnel and improves the speed of fault location and the efficiency of fault repair. It effectively solves the problem of high workload and low efficiency in existing 10kV distribution lines, where after a trip is detected, patrol personnel need to inspect the entire distribution line on-site to find the fault point and restore power.
[0014] The present invention will be described in more detail below through examples. Detailed Implementation
[0015] An example of a method for fault location and recovery of a 10kV distribution line includes the following steps:
[0016] Step S1: Read the telemetry and telesignal values of all tie switches on the 10kV distribution line in real time through the SCADA system; when a tie switch changes from closed to open, first define the tie switch as a trip switch; and then proceed to step S2.
[0017] Step S2: After the tripping switch trips, read the status of all tie switches on the 10kV distribution line where the tripping switch is located through the SCADA system, find the tie switch that has voltage on the side away from the tripping switch and no voltage on the side adjacent to the tripping switch, then define the tie switch as the original hot standby switch; and proceed to step S3.
[0018] Step S3: Close the original hot standby switch. If, after closing the original hot standby switch, the remaining connecting switches on the distribution line between the original hot standby switch and the trip switch are in the closed position, then the tripping of the trip switch is determined to be a momentary fault. The normal operation of the distribution line can be restored by first closing the trip switch and then switching the state of the original hot standby switch from the closed position to the open position. Closing can be done through the SCADA system. The switch from closed to open position is achieved through the SCADA system.
[0019] If, after closing the original hot standby switch, the state of one of the tie switches on the distribution line between the original hot standby switch and the trip switch changes from closed to open, then the line between that tie switch and the trip switch is determined to be a faulty line; then, after the patrol personnel repair the fault point on-site, the original operation mode of the distribution line can be restored.
[0020] If the original hot standby switch changes from closed to open after being closed, the power distribution line between the original hot standby switch and the trip switch is determined to be a faulty line; then the original operation mode of the power distribution line can be restored after the patrol personnel repair the fault point on site.
[0021] When it is necessary to restore the original operation mode of the power distribution line after the fault point is repaired on-site by the patrol personnel, a power distribution line diagram of the faulty line section is generated and distributed to the patrol personnel.
[0022] Example 2 is based on Example 1, except for step S3, the rest is the same as Example 2. After step S2, it includes step S3: before closing the hot standby switch, the state of all the closing state tie switches on the distribution line between the original hot standby switch and the trip switch is switched from the closed position to the open position; then the original hot standby switch is closed. If the original hot standby switch changes from the closed position to the open position after being closed, then the distribution line between the original hot standby switch and the trip switch is defined as a faulty line segment.
[0023] If the original hot standby switch operates normally after being closed, the tie switches are sequentially switched from open to closed in the direction from the original hot standby switch to the trip switch. The next tie switch is closed only when the previous tie switch is closed and operating normally. If all tie switches operate normally after being closed, the fault is determined to be an instantaneous fault. The trip switch is closed first, and then the state of the original hot standby switch is switched from closed to open. At this point, the normal operation of the power distribution line is restored. If a tie switch changes from closed to open after being closed, the power distribution line from that tie switch to the trip switch is defined as a faulty line segment. After the patrol personnel repair the fault point on-site, the original operation mode of the power distribution line is restored.
[0024] As mentioned above, the closing and switching from the closed position to the open position can be achieved through the SCADA system.
