Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of power system relay protection technology, and relates to a method for zero-sequence resistive current differential protection of inter-station tie lines in low-resistance grounding systems. Background Technology
[0002] As the scale of new energy continues to expand, there are more and more wind power, photovoltaic and energy storage power stations distributed in a decentralized manner. After multiple power stations are connected by interconnection lines, they are connected to the power grid through a power station.
[0003] Currently, single-phase grounding protection for tie lines uses full-current zero-sequence differential protection. When a single-phase grounding fault occurs outside the tie line zone, the differential current on both sides of the line includes the capacitive current of the tie line to ground, which is detrimental to the selectivity of the single-phase differential protection and reduces its reliability. When a single-phase grounding fault occurs within the tie line zone, the capacitive current of the tie line to ground results in a differential current close to zero on both sides of the line, having no effect on increasing the differential operating current. Furthermore, the amplitude of the capacitive differential current depends on the capacitive current to ground of the substations on both sides, meaning the amplitude of the capacitive differential current is affected by the operating mode of the substations.
[0004] In substations with resistive grounding, single-phase grounding protection of tie lines employs resistive current zero-sequence differential protection. When the grounding resistances on both sides of the tie line are effectively engaged, the adverse effects of capacitive current during single-phase grounding can be overcome. It is unaffected by the large unbalanced current caused by excessively long tie lines, nor by the substation's operating mode. Using resistive current zero-sequence differential protection, when a single-phase grounding occurs on the tie line, the zero-sequence differential current is the vector difference of the resistive current flowing through the current transformers on both sides of the tie line. This invention utilizes the characteristics of the zero-sequence current in the tie line and employs a relay protection method based on the principle of resistive current zero-sequence differential protection to accurately and promptly determine when a single-phase grounding has occurred on the grounded tie line and disconnect the faulty tie line. The principle of this invention is clear and reliable, conforming to the basic principles of relay protection: reliability, sensitivity, selectivity, and speed. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a method for zero-sequence resistive current differential protection of inter-station tie lines in low-resistance grounding systems. This method can accurately and promptly determine the occurrence of a single-phase grounding fault in the grounding tie line and promptly clear the fault.

Collect the three-phase current of the three-phase current transformer at the receiving end of the tie line. and Collect the zero-sequence voltage of the receiving-end substation bus of the tie line.
[0008] 2) Based on the three-phase current of the three-phase current transformer at the sending end of the tie line. and Calculate the resistive zero-sequence current at the sending end of the tie line.
[0009] 3) Based on the three-phase current of the three-phase current transformer at the receiving end of the tie line. and Calculate the zero-sequence current of the tie-line with resistance at the receiving end.
[0010] 4) Based on the resistive zero-sequence current at the sending end of the tie line and the resistive zero-sequence current at the receiving end of the tie line Calculate the zero-sequence resistive differential current and braking current
[0011] 5) When or When this happens, the zero-sequence differential protection will operate, in which case, K is the zero-sequence differential starting current, and K is the zero-sequence differential braking coefficient.
