Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power grid fault distance measurement, and in particular to a multi-branch power distribution network fault distance measurement method and device based on traveling waves. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, traveling wave fault location technology has made great progress, and the fault location of two points in a straight line in the power grid can be accurately located to the order of ten meters. However, due to the complex grid topology and diverse load types in the distribution network, it is difficult to apply a single fault location technology. How to ensure the accuracy of fault distance measurement while controlling the distance measurement cost has become a practical problem that needs to be solved.

[0003] The authorization announcement number is CN 103901324 B, and the name is a combined distance measurement method for hybrid lines of distribution networks based on single-end fault information. It can effectively extract the initial wave head and various reflected wave heads of the traveling wave at the time of the fault, and is used in occasions where double-end traveling wave distance measurement is not available to achieve accurate fault distance measurement, thus supplementing the shortcomings of the existing hybrid line fault distance measurement of distribution networks. On the basis of realizing fault distance measurement by current traveling waves, the distance measurement results of voltage traveling waves are comprehensively considered to improve the reliability and accuracy of distance measurement.

[0004] The authorization announcement number is CN 109581149 B, and the name is "Traveling wave ranging method and system under arc suppression coil parallel small resistance grounding mode".

It requires fewer devices and does not require synchronous sampling, which reduces the overall cost and significantly improves the accuracy of ranging.

The current fault distance measurement adopts the multi-terminal traveling wave fault distance measurement method, and fault distance measurement devices are installed at all branch points and both ends of the main line. After the fault occurs, according to the fault traveling waves collected by each distance measurement device, the section positioning method is used to know the section where the fault point is located, that is, first know whether the fault point is located on the main line or the branch line, and then use the double-terminal traveling wave fault distance measurement method to determine the distance of the main line fault point, and use the modulus wave velocity difference method to locate the branch line fault point. In this distance measurement method, all fault distance measurement devices are synchronized by GPS, and each fault distance measurement device obtains the time when the fault traveling wave arrives at the fault distance measurement device and calculates the distance between the fault point and the fault distance measurement device. The principle is simple and the distance measurement accuracy is high, but a fault distance measurement device needs to be installed at the branch point of each branch line, which invisibly increases the distance measurement cost.

[0084] Purpose of this application:

[0085] Aiming at the complex structure of current distribution network and the diverse fault location technologies that cannot be universally applied to various types of power supply networks, a new fault location method and traveling wave extraction device configuration scheme are proposed, which can reduce the required number of traveling wave extraction devices while ensuring the ranging accuracy.

[0086] Technical contributions of this application:

[0087] Technical methods for fault location and configuration scheme of traveling wave extraction device.

[0088] Technical solution description:

[0089] The current fault distance measurement adopts the multi-terminal traveling wave fault distance measurement method, that is, fault distance measurement devices are installed at all branch points and both ends of the main line. After the fault occurs, the fault point of the main line is determined by the double-terminal traveling wave fault distance measurement method based on the fault traveling waves collected by each distance measurement device; the fault point of the branch line is located by the modulus wave velocity difference method. This distance measurement method has a simple principle and high distance measurement accuracy, but it is necessary to install a fault distance measurement device at the branch point of each branch line and synchronize it with GPS, which invisibly increases the distance measurement cost.

[0090] Fault voltage traveling wave. Most distribution networks are systems with ungrounded neutral points. When a grounding fault occurs, the current traveling wave is not obvious and the waveform is relatively smooth, making it difficult to analyze its waveform. Therefore, the fault voltage traveling wave is used.

[0091] Aiming at the current ranging scheme, a fault location method based on double-end-line zero-mode wave velocity difference is proposed.

[0092] like Figure 2 As shown in Figure 1, this is a common multi-branch power supply model in the power grid.

[0093] like Figure 2 As shown in the figure, AB is the trunk line, CD, EF, GH, and IK are all branch lines on the trunk line. l1~l9 are the physical lengths of each section of the transmission line shown in the figure. Different from the traditional method, voltage traveling wave extraction devices are only set at A, E, I, and B, that is, voltage traveling wave extraction devices are set at both sides of the line and at the end of the interval branch line, and GPS synchronization timing is performed. CD and GH are branch lines without ranging devices. The location of the single-phase grounding fault in this model is divided into the following four situations: fault in the trunk line, branch line fault with a fault ranging device, branch line fault without a fault ranging device, and fault at the end of the line.

[0094] According to the above fault classification, the transmission line structure of section AB can be further divided into three sections: AE, EI and IB. Due to the lack of branch lines in section IB, faults can only occur on the main distribution line. When a branch line is added to section IB, the topology will be the same as the previous two sections. The situation where the end line lacks a branch will be separately demonstrated in the subsequent analysis. Sections AE and EI have the conditions for the occurrence of three fault conditions (AE / EI main lines, EF / IK lines contain distance measuring devices, and CD / GH is a branch without a distance measuring device). The following takes section AE as an example for a detailed analysis.

[0095] 1) The fault occurs on the power distribution main line

[0096] like Figure 3 As shown in Figure 1, when the fault occurs in the AE section, that is, the fault occurs in the distribution trunk line.

[0097] The traveling wave head radiates from the fault point to both sides to the distance measuring device. By analyzing the fault traveling waves of A, E, I, and B, the fault can be located in the AE section. a If the first time reaches end A, the fault distance measurement is performed with A as the distance measurement center, and the time point T recorded by the distance measurement device E closest to A is used. E Perform calculations.

[0098] According to the double-terminal traveling wave fault distance measurement formula, the fault distance L1 from point A can be obtained as formula (1):

[0099]

[0100] In formula (1), L1 is the distance from the fault point to the traveling wave extraction device at A, in meters; T A is the time when the fault traveling wave reaches the traveling wave extraction device at A, in seconds; T E is the time when the fault traveling wave reaches the traveling wave extraction device at E, in seconds; v α is the α modulus wave velocity, in m / s; l1 is the physical length of the AD section transmission line, in m; is the physical length of the DE section transmission line, in m.

[0101] In formula (1), the α modulus wave velocity v α It is an important factor to ensure the accuracy of distance measurement. Therefore, the positive sequence voltage traveling wave of the fault voltage traveling wave after Clarke transformation is selected, that is, the α-mode voltage traveling wave velocity is selected for fault distance measurement.

[0102] In other sections, as long as the fault occurs in the main line, this method can be used for calculation. However, it should be noted that the farther the two distance measuring devices are apart, the more branches the fault traveling wave passes through before reaching the distance measuring point. The resulting traveling wave attenuation and loss may reduce the accuracy of traveling wave fault distance measurement. The nearest distance measuring point to the fault point should be used for measurement as much as possible.

[0103] The content in step 1) can be directly simplified to a two-terminal ranging method, which is a prior art.

[0104] 2) The fault occurs in the branch with the distance measuring device

[0105] like Figure 4 As shown, when a distribution branch (such as EF) containing a distance measuring device fails, the fault point situation.

[0106] The traveling wave fault distance measuring device at the branch starting point E is used to extract the fault traveling wave emitted by the fault point, and the positive sequence and zero sequence components of the voltage traveling wave, namely the α modulus and the zero modulus component, are extracted using the phase mode transformation theory. The fault distance is measured using the modulus wave velocity difference method. Assuming that the distance between the fault point and the E end is L2, the distance measurement formula is formula (2):

[0107]

[0108] In formula (2), L2 is the distance from the fault point to the traveling wave extraction device at E, in meters; v α is the α modulus wave velocity, unit is m / s; v0 is the zero modulus wave velocity, unit is m / s; Δt is the time difference, unit is s.

[0109] Δt=t0-t α (3)

[0110] In formula (3), t0 is the time when the zero mode reaches the traveling wave extraction device at the branch point E, in seconds; t α is the moment when the α mode arrives at the traveling wave extraction device at the branch point E, in seconds; the line mode, i.e., the α mode wave propagation speed is greater than the zero mode wave speed, and Δt is the time difference between the zero mode and the line mode arriving at the ranging point, in seconds.

[0111] The content in step 2) can be directly simplified to the modulus wave velocity difference ranging method, which is a prior art.

[0112] 3) The fault occurs in the branch without distance measuring device

[0113] like Figure 5 As shown, when a distribution branch without a distance measuring device (such as CD) fails, the fault point situation.

[0114] Since the voltage traveling wave extraction device is connected at the branch starting point D, the required fault traveling wave cannot be extracted, and the fault distance measurement devices on both sides need to be used for coordinated distance measurement.

[0115] After a fault occurs somewhere on branch CD, the fault traveling wave first reaches the D end and propagates to both sides of A and E. According to the principle of double-end traveling wave fault ranging, the fault distance measured with point A as the ranging center is l1, and the fault distance measured with point E as the ranging center is l3. Although the absolute distances of the ranging are different, they are only located to the branch point D, that is, only interval positioning can be performed, and the specific fault location point cannot be determined. At this time, the double-end-line zero-mode wave velocity difference method is used to locate the fault.

[0116] like Figure 8 As shown in the figure, A is taken as the ranging center to receive the fault voltage traveling wave emitted by the fault point, and phase mode transformation and wavelet analysis are performed on it to extract the arrival time of the α-mode and zero-mode voltage traveling waves, and the ranging is performed according to the traveling wave speeds of the two.

[0117] The ranging formula is formula (4):

[0118]

[0119] After simplification, we can get formula (5):

[0120]

[0121] In formula (5), L3 is the distance from the fault point to the branch point at D calculated with point A as the distance measurement center, in meters.

[0122] Similarly, the fault distance can be obtained by locating the fault with E as the center:

[0123]

[0124] In formula (6), L4 is the distance from the fault point to the traveling wave extraction device at D calculated with E as the ranging center, in meters.

[0125] In order to improve the ranging accuracy, the final ranging result takes the average value of the two, as shown in formula (7):

[0126]

[0127] In formula (7), L is the average value, unit is m.

[0128] This method can also use the fault distance measuring devices at H and B to measure the distance, or use the fault distance values ​​obtained by multi-point distance measuring devices to take the average value to calculate a more accurate fault location, which will not be analyzed in detail here.

[0129] The content in step 3) is an innovative point, which is equivalent to replacing the traveling wave extraction device at the end of the branch line with the traveling wave extraction devices on both sides.

[0130] 4) The fault occurs at the end of the line

[0131] like Figure 6 As shown in the figure, when the IB section at the end of the line fails, since this section of the line does not contain branch lines and there are fault distance measurement devices on both sides of I and B, the fault distance measurement method at this time can be simplified to ordinary double-end traveling wave fault distance measurement. When the IB section at the end of the line fails, the fault point situation.

[0132] If the wave head is at T B When the first one arrives at the B end, the fault distance measurement is performed with B as the distance measurement center, and the measured fault distance L5 is expressed as formula (8):

[0133]

[0134] In formula (8), L5 is the distance from the fault point to the traveling wave extraction device at B, in meters; T B is the time when the fault traveling wave reaches the traveling wave extraction device at B, in seconds; T I is the moment when the fault traveling wave reaches the traveling wave extraction device at location I, in s; l9 is the physical length of the IB section of the transmission line, in m.

[0135] The traveling wave velocity used in the above calculation is also the α-mode velocity.

[0136] In summary, after the distance measuring device is used to determine the section, the steps for determining the fault point in the four cases are as follows:

[0137] (1) When a fault occurs in the main line, the time it takes for the traveling wave to arrive at both sides is recorded using a distance measuring device, and then the α-mode wave velocity is calculated. The fault location can be obtained using the double-end distance measurement formula.

[0138] (2) When the fault occurs in a branch line containing a distance measuring device, the voltage traveling wave is extracted by the fault distance measuring device at the starting point of the branch and a phase-mode transformation is performed, and the fault is located according to the single-ended modulus wave velocity difference method.

[0139] (3) When the fault occurs in a branch line without a distance measuring device, the fault section is first located using the double-end distance measuring method on the main line; after locating the branch point, the double-end-line zero-mode wave velocity difference method is used to locate the fault point using any distance measuring points on both sides of the branch. The fault traveling wave received at the distance measuring point is subjected to phase-mode transformation, and the distance to the fault point is calculated based on the modulus wave velocity difference Δv and the time difference Δt. Finally, the distance l of the traveling wave transmission on the main line is subtracted to obtain the position of the fault point on the branch line.

[0140] (4) When the fault occurs at the end of a line without branches, since this section does not contain branch lines, the line fault distance measurement will be converted into a simple two-end traveling wave fault distance measurement. The specific calculation method can be calculated by referring to the fault situation of the distribution trunk line.

[0141] The ranging method in step 4) is the same as that in step 1), which is double-end fault ranging.

[0142] like Figure 7 As shown, the fault location method is simplified into a flow chart, which is a simplified flow chart of the double-end-line zero-mode wave velocity difference fault location method.

[0143] Assuming that there are n branch lines in the medium voltage distribution ring network, according to the traditional double-end traveling wave fault distance measuring device configuration scheme, that is, a distance measuring device is installed at the end of each line, a total of n+2 distance measuring devices are required. According to the distance measuring theory proposed in this paper, the number of distance measuring devices configured is expressed as formula (9):

[0144]

[0145] In formula (9), x is the number of required distance measuring devices, and n is the number of branch lines.

[0146] Compared with the traditional two-terminal traveling wave fault location method, the number of distance measurement devices is almost halved while ensuring the accuracy of traveling wave fault location, and the more branches there are, the more economical it is.

[0147] At the same time, the subway medium-voltage distribution ring network distance measurement algorithm proposed in this paper has reference significance for fault distance measurement of other types of distribution networks. When the topology of the power supply network is more complex, such as when there are many slave branch lines in the main branch line, the topology can be decomposed, and each level of branch line can be configured with a fault distance measurement device according to this model and the fault can be accurately located.

[0148] In addition, the determination of the zero-mode wave velocity in this distance measurement method has a great influence on the distance measurement accuracy of the modulus wave velocity difference method. The zero-mode wave velocity has obvious frequency-varying characteristics, and with the increase of the transmission line distance, it produces greater attenuation and loss. This is also an important reason why the modulus wave velocity difference method cannot be applied to long-distance line fault distance measurement. Many solutions have been proposed, such as combining the Li value of the zero-mode wave head and using iterative algorithms. However, due to the difficulty of calculation, the problem of zero-mode wave velocity change during long-distance transmission has not been well solved. Therefore, it is necessary to study and calculate the change of zero-mode wave velocity. In the subway medium-voltage distribution ring network, the length of the terminal branch is between several hundred meters and several kilometers. The application of zero-mode wave velocity has practical significance, which will be actually verified in the simulation experiment later.

[0149] Fault simulation:

[0150] Single-phase fault simulation analysis

[0151] like Fig. 9 As shown in the simplified model, the AE section contains three fault conditions.

[0152] like Fig. 9As shown, l1=5000m, l2=600m, l3=3000m, l4=700m.

[0153] like Fig.10 As shown, take the IB section (line end). l9 = 3000m.

[0154] Use Matlab / simulink platform to build Fig. 9 , Fig.10 The fault simulation model is set, the transition resistance value in the simulation model is set to 200Ω, the initial phase angle of the power supply is set to 0°, the simulation period is: 0.0s-0.1s, the sampling frequency is 5MHz, and the time when the single-phase grounding fault occurs is 0.02s.

[0155] 5.1 Single-phase fault simulation

[0156] 5.1.1 The fault occurs on the main distribution line

[0157] Assume that a single-phase grounding fault of phase B occurs 3 km away from point A. First, all distance measuring devices on the main line are used to locate the section and determine that the fault section is section AD. Then, the fault distance measuring devices at points A and E are used to locate and measure the specific fault point.

[0158] like Fig.11 As shown in Figure 1, the α-mode fault traveling wave received at point A. Fig.12 As shown in the figure, the wavelet transform d1 waveform received at point A. The d1 waveform is locally amplified near the 0.02s mutation point to locate the arrival time T of the first wave head of the α-mode fault traveling wave. A =0.020019s.

[0159] like Fig.13 As shown in Figure 1, the α-mode fault traveling wave received at point E. Fig.14 As shown, the wavelet transform d1 waveform received at point E. The arrival time T of the traveling wave head of the α-mode fault is E =0.020031s.

[0160] Select the positive sequence modulus traveling wave speed as T α =167.3×10 6 m / s, and the fault distance is calculated using formula (1), the result is:

[0161]

[0162] The calculated result differs by 170m from the actual fault point of 3000m, that is, the absolute error is 170m.

[0163] 5.1.2 The fault occurs in the branch with the distance measuring device

[0164] Assume that the fault occurs at a distance of 200m from point E and use the fault distance measuring device at point E to measure the distance.

[0165] like Fig.15 As shown in Figure 1, the α-mode fault traveling wave received at point E. Fig.16 As shown, the wavelet transform d1 waveform received at point E. The arrival time T of the traveling wave head of the α-mode fault is α =0.020002s.

[0166] like Fig.17 As shown in Figure 1, the 0-mode fault traveling wave received at point E. Fig.18 As shown, the wavelet transform d1 waveform received at point E. The arrival time of the first wave head of the 0-mode fault traveling wave is T0 = 0.020004s.

[0167] Select the 0-mode traveling wave velocity v0 = 89.07 × 10 6 m / s. According to formula (4) in 4.2.2, the fault distance can be calculated as follows:

[0168]

[0169] The absolute error is 181m.

[0170] 5.1.3 The fault occurs in the branch without distance measuring device

[0171] Assume that a single-phase grounding fault of phase B occurs 300m away from point D, and the fault distance measuring device at point A is used for distance measurement.

[0172] like Fig.19 As shown in Figure 1, the α-mode fault traveling wave received at point A. Fig. 20 As shown, the wavelet transform d1 waveform received at point A. The arrival time T of the traveling wave head of the α-mode fault is α =0.020033s.

[0173] like Fig.21 As shown in Figure 1, the 0-mode fault traveling wave received at point A. Fig. 22 As shown in Figure 1, the wavelet transform d1 waveform received at point A. The arrival time of the first wave head of the 0-mode fault traveling wave is T0 = 0.020060s.

[0174] According to formula (6), the fault distance is calculated as:

[0175]

[0176] The distance from the actual fault point is 157m.

[0177] like Fig.23 As shown, the fault distance measuring device at point E is used to measure the distance and the α-mode fault traveling wave is received.

[0178] like Fig.24 As shown, the fault distance measuring device at point E is used to measure the distance, and the received wavelet transform d1 waveform is obtained.

[0179] The arrival time T of the first wave head of the traveling wave for locating α-mode fault α =0.020021s.

[0180] like Fig.25 As shown in Figure 1, the 0-mode fault traveling wave received at point E. Fig.26 As shown, the wavelet transform d1 waveform received at point E. The arrival time of the first wave head of the 0-mode fault traveling wave is T0 = 0.02038s.

[0181] According to formula (7), the fault distance is calculated as:

[0182]

[0183] The actual fault distance is 62m different, and the average of L3 and L4 is taken as the final calculation result, that is, The absolute error is 109.5m, and the ranging result error meets the requirements.

[0184] 5.1.4 Fault at the end of the line

[0185] Assume that a single-phase grounding fault of phase A occurs 1 km away from point B, and the distance is measured using the fault distance measuring devices at points I and B.

[0186] like Fig. 27 As shown in Figure 1, the α-mode fault traveling wave received at point I. Fig.28 As shown, the wavelet transform d1 waveform is received at point I. The time when the head of the traveling wave of the α-mode fault reaches point I is T I =0.020013s.

[0187] like Fig.29 As shown in the figure, the α-mode fault traveling wave received at point B is as follows: Fig.30 As shown, the wavelet transform d1 waveform received at point B. The time when the head of the traveling wave of the α-mode fault reaches point B is T B =0.020007s.

[0188] According to formula (9), the distance can be calculated as follows:

[0189]

[0190] The calculated result differs from the actual fault point at 1000m by 2m, that is, the absolute error is 2m. The above four fault simulations are continued by selecting different fault points, and the results are summarized in Table 1.

[0191] Table 1: Single-phase fault simulation distance calculation results

[0192]

[0193] In Table 1, the fault distance is the distance from the ranging reference point.

[0194] From the statistical data in Table 1, it can be seen that the absolute error of ranging is the largest when the fault occurs at a branch without a ranging device, with a maximum error of 198m. This is because the zero-mode wave velocity is not stable relative to the line-mode wave velocity and decays quickly, and there is an error between the calculation process and the actual situation. At the same time, when the traveling wave transmission process passes through the branch point, the refraction and reflection generated will also affect the traveling wave transmission process.

[0195] 5.2 Phase-to-phase fault simulation analysis

[0196] In 5.1, the simulation of single-phase high-resistance grounding fault was completed for four fault locations, and the fault distance and ranging error were calculated. This section will focus on the simulation of other types of faults. The simulation process is similar to that in Section 5.1, so it will not be repeated here. The simulation results are summarized and classified, and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0197] Table 2: Phase-to-phase fault simulation distance calculation results

[0198]

[0199] The following conclusions can be drawn from the simulation results in Table 2:

[0200] (1) Two-phase high-resistance grounding faults can be located, and the maximum absolute error of the positioning result is 114m. It is impossible to accurately locate two-phase short-circuit faults, three-phase high-resistance grounding faults, and phase short-circuit faults. Only the main transmission line fault can be located. Faults occurring in branch lines can only be located at the branch point.

[0201] (2) When a two-phase short-circuit fault occurs in a branch of a transmission line, it is impossible to locate the fault. This is because no zero-mode voltage traveling wave is generated during a phase-to-phase short-circuit fault, and it is therefore impossible to identify the zero-mode waveform head.

[0202] (3) When a three-phase fault occurs, the vector sum of the zero-mode components of the three phases is zero, which is shown in the simulation results as zero-mode voltage traveling wave amplitude. This makes it impossible to identify the zero-mode waveform head and locate the fault point in the branch. Just like a two-phase short-circuit fault, in actual fault location, only the branch point can be detected.

[0203] After this application was run confidentially for a period of time, the on-site technicians reported that the benefits were:

[0204] 1. A universal ranging method is proposed for complex distribution network topology, which can locate faults for different types of power supply networks.

[0205] 2. The number of traveling wave extraction devices is reduced by nearly half, greatly reducing the cost required for fault location.

[0206] At present, the technical solution of the present invention has been put into pilot production, that is, a small-scale test of the product before large-scale mass production; after the pilot production was completed, a user usage survey was carried out in a small range, and the survey results showed that user satisfaction was high; now preparations have begun for the formal production of the product for industrialization (including intellectual property risk warning survey).
