Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of direct-current area fault detection of photovoltaic power stations, and particularly relates to a method and device for locating single-pole grounding faults in the direct-current area of a photovoltaic substation. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the continuous development of the world economy, the demand for energy by industry is increasing, and traditional fossil fuels cannot meet the demand. As one of high-quality green energy, solar power generation has the characteristics of economy and environmental protection. Therefore, photovoltaic power generation has developed rapidly, and some large photovoltaic power stations have also begun to be constructed and put into operation in large quantities.

[0003] With the continuous expansion of the scale of photovoltaic power stations, faults in photovoltaic power generation often occur. There are a large number of DC cables between photovoltaic components and between photovoltaic strings and inverters or combiner boxes. Once the insulation layer ages or is damaged due to external factors, ground or short circuit faults occur, the photovoltaic power generation system stops, and the power generation benefit is damaged. At the same time, a high DC voltage can break through the air and cause an electric arc, causing fires, injuries to personnel, damage to equipment, etc. In large photovoltaic power stations, the probability of single-pole grounding faults is the highest in the direct-current area due to the large number of cables and complex wiring. However, due to the small fault current when a single-pole grounding fault occurs, the protection part of the traditional photovoltaic power station cannot normally operate. After the fault occurs, it is difficult to patrol the fault location due to the large number of cables and complexity, thereby causing more serious short circuit faults and even causing the entire photovoltaic power station to shut down.

[0004] In the current technology, a complex mathematical model and algorithm are mostly used to locate single-pole grounding faults in the direct-current area of a photovoltaic power station, but there are problems such as difficulty in modeling, difficulty in extracting fault samples, and low positioning accuracy, which are constrained in actual engineering applications.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a single-pole grounding fault positioning technology that can accurately determine the direct-current area of a large photovoltaic power station to ensure reliable operation of the photovoltaic power station. SUMMARY

[0006] In order to solve the problems of poor positioning accuracy and difficulty in implementation of single-pole grounding faults in the direct-current area of a large photovoltaic power station, the application provides a method and device for locating single-pole grounding faults in the direct-current area of a photovoltaic power station.
