Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of electronic information, and in particular to an insulation monitoring method for a dual-transformer power supply system. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous advancement of my country's power grid industry, the safe operation of power supply systems faces significant challenges. Dual-transformer power supply systems not only ensure safe operation but also ensure that their functional quality and power supply are consistent with each other. Therefore, dual-transformer power supply systems are widely used. Dual-transformer power supply systems utilize a three-in-two circuit for incoming lines, meaning that only two of the three cabinets can be combined. These three cabinets include: Line Incoming Cabinet 1#, Line Incoming Cabinet 2#, and Bus Tie Cabinet 3#. Under normal circumstances, when two power sources are simultaneously supplied, Line Incoming Cabinet 1# and Line Incoming Cabinet 2# each carry their own loads, and the Bus Tie Cabinet 3# is in the open state. If either Line Incoming Cabinet 1# or Line Incoming Cabinet 2# loses power, the Bus Tie Cabinet automatically switches on, with the other transformer simultaneously carrying the loads on both sides to ensure power to users. When power is restored on the previously outage side, the Bus Tie Cabinet automatically disconnects and returns to its original standby state. This dual-transformer three-in-two circuit provides emergency power supply. However, the existing insulation monitoring system can only be used for one set of transformer outgoing lines. When applied to a three-in-two circuit with two incoming transformers, the injected signals will interfere with each other, making real-time monitoring impossible.

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, a Chinese patent application with publication number CN103595055B discloses a control method for switching the operating states of two transformers in a dual-transformer system. By controlling the first high-voltage circuit breaker C1, the second high-voltage circuit breaker C2, the first low-voltage circuit breaker 1DL, the second low-voltage circuit breaker 2DL and the third low-voltage circuit breaker 3DL of the dual-transformer power supply system in the open and closed states, the dual-transformer power supply system is controlled to switch between the individual operating states of T1 and T2, and according to the state monitoring of the dual-transformer power supply system, the dual-transformer power supply system is adjusted so that it can always be in the most economical operating state, thereby achieving the purpose of energy saving. The control method for switching the operating states of two transformers in a dual-transformer system of the present invention has the advantages of being able to enable the dual-transformer power supply system to operate in the most energy-saving operating mode after power is supplied, being simple and easy to implement and being able to achieve the purpose of energy saving.

[0004] For example, Chinese patent publication number CN107728512B discloses an intelligent device with intelligent monitoring and switchable dual transformers, comprising a substation and a sensing module. The sensing module is electrically connected to a data acquisition module, which is electrically connected to a data comparison module, which is electrically connected to a wireless information transmission module, which is electrically connected to a wireless information receiving module. This intelligent device with intelligent monitoring and switchable dual transformers achieves the effect of sensing and remotely transmitting the operating temperatures of the first, second, and Nth transformers within the execution module. The data sensed by the sensing module is processed by the data acquisition and comparison modules, then remotely transmitted via the wireless information transmission and wireless information receiving modules to a central processing unit for data processing. This effectively solves the problem of transformer equipment in remote substations being difficult to monitor during extreme weather.

[0005] Currently, these patents still have certain deficiencies in actual operation: the first patent enables a dual-transformer power supply system to operate in an optimal energy-saving mode after power is delivered, while the second patent addresses the difficulty of monitoring transformer equipment in remote substations during extreme weather. While both existing technologies can monitor dual-transformer power supply systems, signal interference can affect the accuracy and stability of system monitoring, leaving room for improvement.

[0027] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0028] The present invention provides a technical solution: a method for insulation monitoring a dual-transformer power supply system. Two insulation monitoring systems, 1# and 2#, are used in conjunction. The busbar cabinet is located between the 1# and 2# outgoing line cabinets. The 1# and 2# insulation monitoring devices communicate in real time. The signal acquisition line access point for the 1# insulation monitoring device is from the 1# transformer outgoing line to the upper port of the 4P switch QF1. The signal acquisition line access point for the 2# insulation monitoring device is from the 2# transformer outgoing line to the upper port of the 4P switch QF5. The workflow is as follows:

[0029] Start 1# and 2# insulation monitoring;

[0030] Determine the operating status of the dual-transformer 4P switch three-in-two power supply system;

[0031] The two insulation monitoring systems 1# and 2# of the dual-transformer 4P switch three-in-two power supply system work together, with real-time communication and monitoring. Under normal circumstances, when the busbar coupler is open, the two monitoring systems operate independently. When 4P switch QF1 is closed, 4P switch QF3 is open, and 4P switch QF5 is closed, the 1# insulation monitoring device (1# insulation monitoring program) and the 2# insulation monitoring device (3# insulation monitoring program) operate independently at the same time. The 1# insulation monitoring range is the circuit between the 1# transformer and the busbar coupler, and the 2# insulation monitoring range is the circuit between the 2# transformer and the busbar coupler.

[0032] If a fault is detected, the following scenarios apply:

[0033] When QF1 is closed, QF3 is open, and QF5 is closed, the 1# insulation monitoring device (1# insulation monitoring program) and the 2# insulation monitoring device (3# insulation monitoring program) are simultaneously running. (Application scenario: The monitoring range is from the 1# transformer output to the QF5 output. The application environment is when the QF2 output is powered by the 1# transformer and the QF4 output is powered by the 2# transformer.)

[0034] When QF1 is closed, QF3 is open, and QF5 is open, the 1# insulation monitoring device (1# insulation monitoring program) is running at the same time, and the 2# insulation monitoring stops; (Application scenario: The monitoring range is limited to the QF2 outgoing line with power output. The application environment is when the QF2 outgoing line is powered by the 1# transformer, and other outgoing lines are not needed)

[0035] When QF1 is closed, QF3 is closed, and QF5 is open, the 1# insulation monitoring device (2# insulation monitoring program) is running, and the 2# insulation monitoring is stopped. (Application scenario: The monitoring range is from the 1# transformer outgoing line to the QF5 outgoing line. The application environment is when the entire system is powered by the 1# transformer, such as when the 2# transformer is under maintenance.)

[0036] When QF1 is open, QF3 is closed, and QF5 is closed, the 1# insulation monitoring device is stopped and the 2# insulation monitoring device (2# insulation monitoring program) is started. (Application scenario: The monitoring range is from the 2# transformer output to the QF2 output. The application environment is when the entire system is powered by the 1# transformer, such as when the 1# transformer is under maintenance.)

[0037] When QF1 is open, QF3 is open, and QF5 is closed, the 1# insulation monitoring device is stopped and the 2# insulation monitoring device (3# insulation monitoring program) is activated. (Application scenario: The monitoring range is limited to when only the QF4 output is powered. The application environment is when the QF4 output is powered by the 2# transformer, and other outputs are not required.)

[0038] The above description is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field, within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, who makes equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
