Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of distribution network relay protection, and in particular to an active distribution network traveling wave fault locating method under the disturbance of a power electronic device. Background Art

[0002] Once a distribution network with multiple branches and complex topology fails, it is difficult for operation and maintenance personnel to determine the fault location in time, which affects the troubleshooting and power supply restoration process of on-site operation and maintenance personnel, resulting in a decrease in power supply reliability. Therefore, reliable and accurate fault location technology is crucial for distribution network self-healing.

[0003] The traveling wave fault location method uses the time difference between the high-frequency transient traveling wave head generated by the fault and the traveling wave sensor to achieve fault location. It has high positioning accuracy and has been widely used in high-voltage transmission networks. Due to the large number of distribution line branches and complex topological structures, the length parameters of overhead lines and cable lines in the distribution lines are missing or have large errors. The fault line mode traveling wave will be refracted and reflected multiple times during transmission in the distribution line. The fault location result achieved by relying solely on the time difference between the traveling wave generated by the fault arriving at the starting node and the end node of the distribution line will have a very large deviation. Therefore, it is necessary to rely on new input signals to correct the distribution line fault traveling wave location and improve the accuracy of distribution network traveling wave fault location.
