[0129] The specific implementations selected the following scenarios:
[0130] (1) Implementation example of applying it to faults in transformer areas
[0131] A single-phase ground fault occurred inside the transformer, and the faulty phase was phase A. The differential protection for the sudden change in phase A operated as follows: Figure 5A As shown, the fault zone I was entered 1.67ms after the fault was initiated. The inrush current blocking criterion action result of the A-phase sudden change sampling value is as follows: Figure 5B As shown, the criterion was met 15.83ms after the fault started, the sudden change differential protection was activated, and the transformer differential protection operated. The result of the inrush current blocking criterion action for the A-phase progressive fault is as follows. Figure 5C As shown, this fault had no development process. After the fault started, the inrush current blocking criterion for the developmental fault was never met. However, the inrush current blocking criterion for the sudden change value had already been judged as an intra-zone fault. Therefore, it did not affect the correct operation of the transformer protection.
[0132] (2) Example of applying the application to transformers with inrush current during no-load charging
[0133] When an inrush current occurs during transformer no-load charging, the differential protection operation result for phase A sudden change is as follows: Figure 6A As shown, after the fault is initiated, it remains in fault zone II outside the zone. The sampling value of the abrupt change in phase A and the result of the inrush blockage criterion are as follows: Figure 6B As shown, the surge blockade criterion for the sudden change in the sampled value is consistently not met after the fault is initiated. The result of the surge blockade criterion action for the phase A progressive fault is as follows: Figure 6C As shown, the criteria for resolving the inrush current blockade due to the developing fault were consistently not met after the fault was initiated. Therefore, the transformer differential protection did not operate.
[0134] (3) Implementation examples of application to transformer progressive faults
[0135] A single-phase ground fault occurred inside the transformer. The faulty phase was phase B. The differential protection for the sudden change in phase B operated as follows: Figure 7A As shown, after the fault is initiated, it enters fault zone I within the zone 9.375ms. The sampling value of the phase change in phase B and the result of the inrush blockage criterion are as follows: Figure 7BAs shown, the criteria for triggering the fault were consistently not met after the fault was initiated. The result of the triggering of the inrush blockage release criterion for the B-phase progressive fault is as follows: Figure 7C As shown, the inrush current blocking criterion for the developmental fault is satisfied 20ms after the fault starts. In summary, the transformer protection operates correctly within 20ms.
[0136] Therefore, by utilizing the sampled value of the sudden change in the first power frequency cycle after startup, a differential protection system with low-sensitivity inrush current blocking is constructed to quickly clear severe transformer faults. In the second power frequency cycle after startup, a criterion for releasing the inrush current blocking for developing transformer faults is established, accelerating the opening of inter-turn developing faults.
