[0092] In some embodiments, the above S301: performing a differential matching test on the A phase and the B phase of the protection device to be tested to obtain a differential matching test result of the A phase and the B phase of the protection device to be tested, further includes:

[0093] When simulating the short-circuit fault of phase A and phase B, record the breaking time and the second short-circuit current of the protective device to be tested.

[0094] When performing a short-circuit fault simulation test on phases A and B of the protection device to be tested, it is also necessary to record the disconnection time of the protection device to be tested, that is, the tripping time, and obtain the current of the short-circuit circuit at this time, which is recorded as the second short-circuit current. Optionally, the waveform of the current of the circuit, the waveform of the voltage of the circuit, etc. can also be recorded at this time.

[0095] In a possible implementation, the above S302: performing a differential matching test on the B phase and the C phase of the protection device to be tested to obtain a differential matching test result of the B phase and the C phase of the protection device to be tested may also include:

[0098] When simulating the short-circuit fault of phase A and phase C, the breaking time and the sixth short-circuit current of the protective device to be tested are recorded.

[0099] Among them, the steps for performing short-circuit fault simulation test on the B and C phases and the A and C phases of the protection device to be tested are similar to the steps for performing short-circuit fault simulation test on the A and B phases of the protection device to be tested, and will not be repeated here. Please refer to the above description.

[0100] In some embodiments, according to the differential matching test results of the A phase and the B phase of the protection device to be tested, the differential matching test results of the B phase and the C phase of the protection device to be tested, and the differential matching test results of the A phase and the C phase of the protection device to be tested, the differential matching test results of the protection device to be tested are determined, including:

[0101] If the differential coordination test results of the A-phase and B-phase of the protection device to be tested, the differential coordination test results of the B-phase and C-phase of the protection device to be tested, and the differential coordination test results of the A-phase and C-phase of the protection device to be tested are all qualified, then the differential coordination test result of the protection device to be tested is determined to be qualified;

[0102] If at least one of the differential coordination test results of phase A and phase B of the protection device to be tested, the differential coordination test results of phase B and phase C of the protection device to be tested, and the differential coordination test results of phase A and phase C of the protection device to be tested are unqualified, then the differential coordination test result of the protection device to be tested is determined to be unqualified.

[0103] In a specific application scenario, the AC differential coordination test device on-site wiring is as follows Figure 4 The station AC power supply system is powered by the station-use inverter AC busbars W, U, and V. The AC feeder panel supplies power to the AC load panel or distribution box via the AC circuit breakers S11, S12, ..., S1n in the panel, and the AC load panel or distribution box supplies power to the AC load via the AC circuit breakers SK1, SK2, SK3, ..., SKn in it.

[0104] Take the verification of the AC circuit breaker S12 and SK3 as an example to illustrate. During the test, disconnect the AC circuit breaker SK3 of the feeder circuit to be tested in the on-site AC system, untie the actual load wiring at its lower port, and connect the A, B, and C phase terminals of the test device to the lower port of the circuit breaker SK3; then close the AC circuit breaker SK3, and ensure that all other AC protective devices (including fuses and circuit breakers) on the AC feeder circuit to be tested are in the closed position.

[0105] According to the above test method, the following tests are performed:

[0106] (1) A and B phase differential coordination verification test:

[0107] 1) Small current estimation test: The test device controls the thyristor LA and LD to conduct, then closes the contactor K1 and adjusts the adjustable load LR to generate a suitable small test current, calculates the equivalent impedance of the A and B phases through the voltage and current, and then calculates the short-circuit current based on the bus voltage and impedance. Finally, the extreme difference coordination probability is estimated based on the ampere-second action characteristic curves of the upper and lower level protection devices.

[0108] 2) Short circuit simulation test: The test device controls the conduction of thyristors LA and LD, and then controls the conduction of thyristor LN, simulating the short circuit fault of phases A and B, recording the breaking time, short circuit current and waveform. At this time, the circuit breaker SK3 is instantaneous. If the circuit breaker S12 also trips, it means that the over-level tripping occurs and the differential coordination is unqualified. If S12 does not act, it means that the differential coordination of circuit breakers S12 and SK3 meets the requirements.

[0109] (2) B and C phase differential coordination verification test:

[0110] 1) Small current estimation test: The test device controls the thyristor LB and LC to conduct, then closes the contactor K1 and adjusts the adjustable load LR to generate a suitable small test current. The equivalent impedance at the B and C phases is calculated by the voltage and current, and the short-circuit current is calculated based on the bus voltage and impedance. Finally, the extreme difference coordination probability is estimated based on the ampere-second action characteristic curves of the upper and lower level protection devices.

[0111] 2) Short circuit simulation test: The test device controls the conduction of thyristors LB and LC, and then controls the conduction of thyristor LN, simulating the short circuit fault of phases B and C, recording the breaking time, short circuit current and waveform. At this time, the circuit breaker SK3 is instantaneous. If the circuit breaker S12 also trips, it means that the over-level tripping occurs and the differential coordination is unqualified. If S12 does not act, it means that the differential coordination of circuit breakers S12 and SK3 meets the requirements.

[0112] (3) A and C phase differential coordination verification test:

[0113] 1) Small current estimation test: the test device controls the thyristor LA and LC to conduct, then closes the contactor K1 and adjusts the adjustable load LR to generate a suitable small test current. The equivalent impedance at the A and C phases is calculated by the voltage and current, and the short-circuit current is calculated based on the bus voltage and impedance. Finally, the extreme difference coordination probability is estimated based on the ampere-second action characteristic curves of the upper and lower level protection devices.

[0114] 2) Short circuit simulation test, the test device controls the thyristor LA and LC to conduct, and then controls the thyristor LN to conduct, simulates the short circuit fault of phases A and C, records the breaking time, short circuit current and records the waveform. At this time, the circuit breaker SK3 is instantaneous. If the circuit breaker S12 also trips, it means that the over-level tripping occurs and the differential coordination is unqualified. If S12 does not act, it means that the differential coordination of circuit breakers S12 and SK3 meets the requirements.
