[0002] Intelligent fault location of power supply lines is one of the key contents for realizing distribution automation. It mainly comprehensively analyzes the fault information reported by feeder terminal units to determine the fault section, providing conditions for power supply restoration after the fault.

[0003] Currently, power supply line fault location methods are mainly divided into two types: matrix algorithms and intelligent algorithms. However, in the current complex distribution network structure with many nodes, the computational amount of matrix algorithms has been greatly increased, unable to meet the requirements of distribution network fault location and unable to quickly and accurately obtain the fault point. Currently, the intelligent algorithms mainly used include genetic algorithms, ant colony algorithms, artificial neural networks, particle swarm algorithms, etc. Such algorithms have a certain degree of fault tolerance, but generally have the disadvantages of large population requirements, many dimensions of the solution space, many iteration times, or being easily trapped in local optima. Therefore, based on intelligent algorithms, it is of great significance to study an intelligent fault location method that first determines the suspected fault interval based on the zero-sequence current algorithm and then determines the fault section based on the binary state particle swarm optimization algorithm in terms of shortening the power outage time, narrowing the power outage range, reducing losses in life and production, improving power supply reliability, and improving the accuracy of fault location.

[0025] In order to solve the problem of intelligent fault location of power supply lines, the present invention discloses an intelligent fault location method and system for power supply lines based on zero-sequence current algorithm and two-state binary particle optimization algorithm (BBPSO) through the following embodiments.

[0026] The first embodiment of the present invention discloses an intelligent fault location method for a power supply line, as shown in Figure 1 shown, including:

[0027] Step S11: According to the zero-sequence current signals collected by each feeder measurement point, use the integral closed-open difference operation (ICODO) to extract the direction of the transient zero-sequence current;

[0028] Step S12: Based on the distribution law of the transient zero-sequence current and applying the shortest path theory in graph theory, determine the suspected fault area to reduce the scale of the solution space for fault location;

[0029] Step S13: Starting from the network structure of the suspected fault area, construct an expected measurement point state matrix through the expected measurement point state function E * ;

[0030] Step S14: Propose a new evaluation function for fault location to make it sensitive to distorted information;

[0031] Step S15: Set the BBPSO algorithm parameters;

[0032] Step S16: The BBPSO algorithm is used to search for the faulty feeder, and an evolution factor is introduced to judge whether the algorithm falls into local convergence, so as to achieve accurate fault location.

[0033] A method for intelligent fault location of a power supply line disclosed in an embodiment of the present invention has a schematic diagram as shown in Figure 2 shown.

[0034] Furthermore, for the closed-open difference operation of extracting zero-sequence current in step S1, since measurement errors often need to be considered for the interference brought to the actual output result in actual measurement, the present invention improves on the basis of CODO, and the specific implementation method of the integral closed-open difference operation (ICODO) is as follows:

[0035]

[0036] Equation F ICODO ( t ) represents t the output for identifying the transient zero-sequence current direction at time t r is the time window length for identifying the transient zero-sequence current direction after detecting the zero-sequence current signal at t r has a relatively small value.

[0037] Furthermore, according to the final output result of ICOD, the polarity criterion of the transient zero-sequence current of each feeder is:

[0038]

[0039] In the formula D set is the threshold for judging the polarity of the zero-sequence current, and its value is related to the scale, topological structure and feeder length of the distribution network, and generally takes 0.1 max | y CODO |.

[0040] Furthermore, the solution space dimension reduction method based on the zero-sequence current distribution law in step S2 is as follows:

[0041]

[0042] In the formula P i is the shortest path between the measurement point with the reported feeder fault information of 1 and the main node.

[0043] Furthermore, the state function of the expected measurement point in step S3 is as follows:

[0044]

[0045] In the formula F n { i, 1} means that if the i th feeder fails, the states of the measurement points from 1 to i are 1.

[0046] Furthermore, the formula for constructing the state matrix of the expected measurement points in step S3 is as follows:

[0047]

[0048] In the formula: j represents the total number of elements with a value of 1 in the solution space generated during one iteration of the algorithm, that is, the total number of faulty feeders; F n { i ,1}=1 means that according to F n { i ,1}, the element values at the corresponding positions in E * are set to 1. represents the total number of faulty feeders j , and using the formula E * ( F n { i ,1})=1 for j operations.

[0049] Furthermore, the evaluation function based on the positive sequence zero-sequence current path in step S4 is:

[0050]

[0051] In the formula: S pj represents the length of the zero-sequence current flow path from the measurement point p to the main node e j when the element value in the collected measurement point state matrix is V 1. When p takes the value of 1, at this time S pj is the length of the zero-sequence current flow path from the measurement point e j to the main node V 1; when p takes the value of 0, at this time S pj = 0. S aj* It represents the element value in the expected measurement point state matrix generated during the algorithm iteration process to be a When measuring e j to the main node V the length of the zero-sequence current flow path between 1. l aj It represents that during the algorithm iteration process, the distribution network feeder l j The state is a When, the value of the j bit of the feeder fault matrix.

[0052] Furthermore, in step S5, the binary bi-state particle swarm optimization algorithm (BBPSO) is adopted:

[0053] First, set the parameters according to the network topology of the suspected fault area: set the particle size N , the dimension of the search solution space D , the total number of operations of BBPSO T and related parameters such as the learning factor C 1 、C 2 , speed V of V max 、V min . The particle N can be expressed as:

[0054]

[0055] In the formula: l aj It represents that during the algorithm iteration process, the distribution network feeder l j The state is a When, the value of the j bit of the feeder fault matrix, the value is 1 or 0; when a The value is 0, indicating that the feeder l j has no fault, when a The value is 1, indicating that the feeder l j has a fault.

[0056] Secondly, initialize the predator particle swarm: obtain the initial individual extreme values of each particle i in the predator state P id , the initial individual extreme values P idThe minimum value in it is the initial global extreme value in the particle swarm, that is P gd 。 v i The initial value is generally between -4 and 4.

[0057] Then update the velocity and position of the particle swarm in the predation state. The update formula for the velocity of the particle in the predation state is:

[0058]

[0059] The update formula for the position of the particle in the predation state is:

[0060]

[0061]

[0062] In the formula: r id ( t + 1) is a random number in [0, 1]; to avoid sigmoid ( v id ( t + 1)) function saturation, it is generally assumed that the velocity v id is between [-4, 4].

[0063] Then calculate the P gd of the current particle swarm. During iteration, through the evaluation function, the obtained P id is compared with P gd . If P id is better than P gd , then P gd is updated, otherwise it is not updated; when the number of iterations is greater than or equal to 3, calculate the evolution factor f and judge it. If 0 < f < 1, select M exploration particles for exploration, and the remaining particles continue to prey and execute the next step. The particle swarm evolution factor f is defined as:

[0064]

[0065] In the formula: Fbest t is the overall optimal fitness value of BBPSO when performing t operations; is the smoothing coefficient to prevent the denominator from being zero.

[0066] Then, number the M exploration particles separated, and obtain x i through the determined evaluation function and use it as the initial individual value of the exploration particle swarm P kd , v k The initial value is generally between -4 and 4; calculate the P gd . During iteration, obtain the P id of the particles in the predation state and the P kd of the particles in the exploration state. P id and P kd of the two particle swarms are better than the previous global extreme value P gd , then replace and update P gd otherwise do not update; the update formulas for the velocity and position of the particles in the exploration state are respectively:

[0067]

[0068]

[0069]

[0070]

[0071]

[0072] In the formula: c 3 is a random function between (0, 1); u (0, 1) is the Gaussian distribution function; hP gd is the global optimum for the particles in the exploration state to search in the solution space; sign ( r ) is the sign function; r is a random number; T 1 is the maximum number of iterations required after entering the exploration state; t 1 is the current number of iterations after entering the exploration state.

[0073] Finally, when the entire particle swarm performs T operations through the algorithm, at this time, find P gdThe position of the particles is the actual operating state of each feeder section of the current network.
