[0002] After a fault occurs in a power transmission line, a fault location system is needed to quickly and accurately locate the fault point, so as to improve the patrol and maintenance efficiency of the fault point by maintenance personnel. In the traditional method, a traveling wave fault location device is usually arranged in a transformer substation, but when the power transmission distance is far, it is difficult to monitor the fault traveling wave information at a position far from the transformer substation.
[0003] In the prior art, a distributed fault monitoring device is installed to locate the fault position. The distributed fault monitoring device mainly has two types of contact type and non-contact type.

However, it is difficult to power off the power transmission line, and the equipotential installation technology is difficult, resulting in low installation efficiency. Although the non-contact type fault monitoring device does not need to be installed during power outage, the sensor of the non-contact type fault monitoring device senses the electromagnetic signal in the space, which is a combined quantity of multiple conductors and is easily disturbed.

[0035] With reference to the drawings, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described, obviously, the described embodiments are some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present application.
[0036] The flow chart shown in the drawings is only an example, and does not necessarily include all the contents and operations / steps, nor does it necessarily be executed in the order described. For example, some operations / steps can be further decomposed, combined or partially merged, so that the actual execution order may be changed according to the actual situation.
[0037] The embodiments of the present application provide a power transmission line distributed fault location method and system. The power transmission line distributed fault location method is applied to the power transmission line distributed fault location system.
[0038] Some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. In the case of no conflict, the embodiments described below and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0039] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A flow chart of a power transmission line distributed fault location method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown.
[0040] As Figure 1 shown, the method comprises steps S1 to S4.
[0041] Step S1, using non-contact fault monitoring devices arranged at intervals on different towers of the power transmission line between the two substations, collect and store the waveforms of power frequency current, power frequency voltage and traveling wave current.
[0042] It is worth noting that the power transmission line between the two substations is supported by a plurality of towers as Figure 2 shown. As Figure 2 shown, the non-contact fault monitoring device is installed at the waist position of the tower, and the non-contact fault monitoring devices are installed at different towers at intervals, and the interval distance is 20-30 km. A plurality of sensors and data storage modules are arranged in the non-contact fault monitoring device, so that the non-contact fault monitoring device can collect and store the power frequency current, power frequency voltage and traveling wave current in the form of signal waveform. The non-contact fault monitoring device is also configured with a wireless communication module capable of receiving and sending information. The structure and working principle of the fault monitoring device are not the focus of the present application, and will not be described here.
[0043] Step S2, using the contact type fault monitoring device set on the transmission line conductor between the two substations to collect power frequency current, power frequency voltage and traveling wave current, according to the collected power frequency current and power frequency voltage to determine whether the transmission line has a fault, and when it is determined that the transmission line has a fault, the fault waveform of the power frequency current and power frequency voltage for detection and the traveling wave current waveform for fault location are sent.
[0044] It is worth noting that the contact type fault monitoring device can monitor the power frequency current and power frequency voltage through the built-in multiple sensors, and analyze and determine whether the transmission line has a fault according to the monitored power frequency current and power frequency voltage. At the same time, the traveling wave current is monitored, and the contact type fault monitoring device can monitor the traveling wave current when the transmission line has a fault. The traveling wave current can be used for fault location. The contact type fault monitoring device sends the power frequency current, power frequency voltage and traveling wave current waveform for fault location to the center station through the internally set wireless communication module.
[0045] As a preferred embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 The transmission line usually crosses multiple regions, so one transmission line is divided and managed by multiple localities. When there is a local division point between the two substations, a set of contact type fault monitoring devices are set on the transmission line at each local division point to collect power frequency current and power frequency voltage. The number of contact type fault monitoring devices corresponds to the number of local division points.
[0046] It should be noted that because the transmission lines on both sides of the local division point may be managed by different localities, the contact type fault monitoring device will send the fault waveform of the power frequency current and power frequency voltage for detection to different center stations or data receiving devices.
[0047] Further, as shown in Figure 3 The transmission line may have a T-junction type line, which is a tower pole directing two transmission lines in different directions. When there is a T-junction type line on the transmission line between the substations, and the main line and the branch line need to be divided, a set of contact type fault monitoring devices are set on the conductor at the head of each T-junction type line branch line to collect power frequency current and power frequency voltage. Similarly, the number of contact type fault monitoring devices corresponds to the number of T-junction type lines. In this way, the installation ensures that the contact type fault detection device has an accurate monitoring interval.
[0048] Further, when there is no local division point between the two substations and the transmission line is not a T-junction type line, a set of contact type fault monitoring devices are set on the conductor between the two substations to collect power frequency current and power frequency voltage.
[0049] As Figure 4As shown in the figure, one set of contact fault monitoring equipment includes multiple contact fault monitoring units, and one contact fault monitoring unit is arranged on one conductor of the power transmission line. For example, the power transmission line is a three-phase power transmission line, and one contact fault monitoring unit is installed on each phase of the power transmission line. Therefore, one set of contact fault monitoring equipment includes three contact fault monitoring units.
[0050] It is worth noting that the contact fault monitoring equipment in the embodiment of the present application sends the fault waveform of the power frequency current and the power frequency voltage for detection and the traveling wave current waveform for fault location, which is received by the central station. The central station can be a receiving device with data processing function. It is a prior art to determine whether the power transmission line has a fault according to the power frequency current and the power frequency voltage, which will not be described here.
[0051] Step S3, when receiving the fault waveform sent by the contact fault monitoring equipment, determining the fault occurrence time according to the fault waveform, and recalling the power frequency current, power frequency voltage and traveling wave current waveform stored by all the non-contact fault monitoring equipment within a preset time interval before and after the fault occurrence time.
[0052] Step S4, determining the fault point position of the power transmission line according to the fault waveform and the traveling wave current waveform sent by the contact fault monitoring equipment and the stored waveform sent by the non-contact fault monitoring equipment.
[0053] Specifically, the central station determines the conductor of the power transmission line that has a fault according to the fault waveform sent by the contact fault monitoring equipment. Since one contact fault monitoring unit is installed on each conductor of the power transmission line, the central station can determine the conductor that has a fault according to the contact fault monitoring unit that sends the fault waveform.
[0054] Further, the central station determines the fault point position of the conductor of the power transmission line according to the stored waveform sent by the non-contact fault monitoring equipment. Since the non-contact fault monitoring equipment is arranged at intervals, when the conductor of the power transmission line has a fault, the non-contact fault monitoring equipment will also have abnormal waveform collection and storage. The non-contact fault monitoring equipment that has abnormal stored waveform can determine the approximate interval of the fault point, and then the contact fault monitoring equipment sends the traveling wave current waveform and the non-contact fault monitoring equipment sends the stored waveform to determine the precise fault point position of the conductor of the power transmission line that has a fault.
[0055] The cooperation of the contact type fault monitoring device and the non-contact type fault monitoring device in the embodiment of the application can determine the faulty conductor and the faulty phase of the power transmission line, which can avoid the false positives of the non-contact type device and the problem that the non-contact type fault monitoring device cannot determine the fault section and the local division of the T connection line. The number of the contact type device is greatly reduced, and the installation difficulty and cost are greatly reduced. The position of the fault point is determined according to the traveling wave current waveform sent by the contact type fault monitoring device and the stored waveform sent by the non-contact type fault monitoring device, and the accuracy of the fault point positioning of the power transmission line is improved.
[0056] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 The embodiment of the application provides a schematic diagram of a power transmission line distributed fault positioning system.
[0057] As shown in Figure 4 , the system comprises a center station, a non-contact type fault monitoring device and a contact type fault monitoring device.
[0058] The non-contact type fault monitoring device is arranged at different towers of the power transmission line between two substations at intervals, and is used for collecting and storing the waveforms of the power frequency current, the power frequency voltage and the traveling wave current;
[0059] The contact type fault monitoring device is arranged on the conductor of the power transmission line between the two substations, and is used for collecting the power frequency current, the power frequency voltage and the traveling wave current, determining whether the power transmission line has a fault according to the collected power frequency current and power frequency voltage, and sending the fault waveform of the power frequency current and the power frequency voltage and the traveling wave current waveform for fault positioning to the center station when it is determined that the power transmission line has a fault;
[0060] The center station is used for determining the time when the fault occurs according to the fault waveform when the contact type fault monitoring device sends the fault waveform, and recalling all the waveforms of the power frequency current, the power frequency voltage and the traveling wave current stored by all the non-contact type fault monitoring devices within a preset time interval before and after the time when the fault occurs;
[0061] The center station is also used for determining the position of the fault point of the power transmission line according to the fault waveform and the traveling wave current waveform sent by the contact type fault monitoring device and the stored waveform sent by the non-contact type fault monitoring device.
