Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power grid fault location technology, and more specifically, to a method and apparatus for determining the range of power grid faults based on a topology search algorithm. Background Technology

[0002] After a power grid fault occurs, accurately and quickly determining the fault location is crucial for on-site confirmation of the specific fault point and fault handling. Currently, power grid fault location mainly relies on fault and relay protection action information reported by relay protection systems. Due to the high reliability of relay protection actions, under general power grid fault conditions, relay protection action information can basically meet the needs of rapid fault location in field applications. However, when relay protection systems operate incorrectly, or when multiple relay protection devices operate or multiple circuit breakers trip due to complex power grid faults, existing methods for fault location based on fault and relay protection action reports generated by relay protection devices fail due to inaccurate judgment by the relay protection devices themselves or analysis that only focuses on a local area. The primary goal of power grid fault location is to delineate the possible range of the power grid fault, eliminating non-faulty equipment from the power grid equipment set to further analyze the candidate equipment set and arrive at a definitive power grid fault location conclusion. This invention aims to solve the problem of how to accurately and effectively delineate the range of power grid faults. Summary of the Invention

[0013] Optionally, it also includes:

[0014] If no complementary displacement circuit breaker to the displacement circuit breaker at the vertex is found within the predetermined number of search steps, the search ends.

[0020] The third determination module is used to determine the associated subset of candidate grid fault devices for each circuit breaker based on the branching tree of each circuit breaker.

[0021] The fourth determination module is used to take the set of candidate faulty equipment subsets determined by each variable circuit breaker as the candidate faulty equipment set of the power grid.

[0022] According to another aspect of the present invention, a computer-readable storage medium is provided, the storage medium storing a computer program for performing the methods described in any of the above aspects of the present invention.

[0023] According to another aspect of the present invention, an electronic device is provided, the electronic device comprising: a processor; a memory for storing executable instructions of the processor; the processor being configured to read the executable instructions from the memory and execute the instructions to implement the method described in any of the preceding aspects of the present invention.

[0047] Exemplary methods

[0048] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining the fault range of a power grid based on a topology search algorithm, provided in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment can be applied to electronic devices, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the power grid fault range determination method 100 based on topology search algorithm includes the following steps:

[0049] Step 101: Combine the circuit breaker position change information with the power grid topology information to determine the position of the position change circuit breaker in the power grid topology information and the primary equipment connected to the position change circuit breaker.

[0050] Step 102: Perform a closed-loop topology search using each variable circuit breaker in the power grid topology information as a vertex of the branch tree to determine the branch tree with each variable circuit breaker as a vertex.

[0051] Step 103: Based on the branch tree of each variable-position circuit breaker, determine the subset of candidate grid fault devices associated with each variable-position circuit breaker;

[0052] Step 104: The set of candidate faulty equipment subsets determined by each variable circuit breaker is taken as the candidate faulty equipment set of the power grid.

[0053] Optionally, a closed-loop topology search is performed, using each variable circuit breaker in the power grid topology information as a vertex of a branch tree, to determine the operation of the branch tree with each variable circuit breaker as a vertex, including:

[0054] The variable displacement circuit breaker is taken as the vertex of the branch tree, and the primary equipment adjacent to the variable displacement circuit breaker is taken as the node directly connected to the vertex.

[0055] Based on the power grid topology information, search for expanded full-branch trees along different directions;

[0056] If a circuit breaker that is complementary to the circuit breaker is found, a branching tree with the circuit breaker as the vertex is determined.

[0057] Optionally, it also includes:

[0058] If no complementary displacement circuit breaker to the displacement circuit breaker at the vertex is found within the predetermined number of search steps, the search ends.

[0059] Optionally, the operation of determining the associated subset of candidate grid fault devices for each displacement circuit breaker based on its branch tree includes:

[0060] The nodes contained in the branching subtrees of complementary branching circuit breakers within the branching tree of the displacement circuit breaker are selected as a subset of candidate grid fault devices.

[0061] Specifically, this invention addresses the problem of determining the scope of a power grid fault in power grid fault location. It involves identifying the set of primary equipment that may cause a power grid fault, while excluding primary equipment that is unlikely to fail. Based on circuit breaker position changes and relay protection operation information, a method using minimal cut sets of the power grid tripping range extracted through topology analysis is used to determine the scope of faulty equipment in the power grid, thus creating conditions for further analysis of whether candidate faulty equipment in the power grid is indeed faulty.

[0062] After a power grid fault, a network connection diagram is constructed based on the topology of the primary equipment in the power grid. The variable-position circuit breakers are marked in this diagram. The minimum cut set that completely covers the variable-position circuit breakers is extracted from the network connection diagram. Primary equipment within this minimum cut set is considered candidate equipment for fault location. In fact, for primary equipment outside the minimum cut set, if the equipment is faulty, its relay protection device or the backup protection device of an adjacent device can operate to disconnect the adjacent circuit breaker or the circuit breaker of the upstream device, thus clearing the fault. However, as described above, the minimum cut set does not completely cover the variable-position circuit breakers, which does not match the expected minimum cut set. Therefore, the power grid equipment in the minimum cut set that completely covers the variable-position circuit breakers must encompass the actual faulty primary equipment and can be used as a candidate set for fault location.

[0063] Furthermore, in order to determine the minimum cut set of the displacement circuit breaker in the connection graph, this invention proposes a branching tree method for topology search, combining the topological connection relationship of power grid equipment and the correlation between primary equipment faults and displacement circuit breakers, to achieve the goal of efficiently extracting the minimum cut set of the displacement circuit breaker after a power grid fault.

[0064] The specific method for extracting the minimum cut set of the power grid tripping range through topology analysis is as follows:

[0065] (1) Combine the circuit breaker displacement information with the power grid topology information to identify the primary equipment that is electrically connected to the circuit breaker that has undergone displacement in the power grid connection, including busbars, branches, etc.

[0066] (2) Select any one of the aforementioned variable-position circuit breakers and perform a topology search to determine a point cluster formed by combining this variable-position circuit breaker as a point with several other variable-position circuit breakers in the power grid, which can form a closed-loop topology with the minimum number of primary power grid devices covered by this closed-loop topology. To obtain the aforementioned closed-loop topology, a branching tree method for closed-loop topology search is proposed. The vertex of the branching tree is a variable-position circuit breaker. Starting from this variable-position circuit breaker, the adjacent primary power grid devices are obtained through topology search. These primary power grid devices are taken as child nodes of the branching tree. Then, starting from the child node, the search continues in the same direction to determine the primary power grid devices and variable-position circuit breakers adjacent to the new primary power grid devices, and the new primary power grid devices and variable-position circuit breakers are added to the branching tree. The variable-position circuit breaker can be used as a termination node, while other primary power grid devices are not termination nodes and need to continue searching in the same direction, and so on. The specific steps are as follows:

[0067] 1) Determining the vertices of the branch tree and their directly connected nodes. The initial displacement circuit breaker is taken as the vertex of the branch tree; the primary power grid equipment adjacent to this displacement circuit breaker is selected. The primary power grid equipment on both sides of the displacement circuit breaker is taken as the nodes (i.e., child nodes) directly connected to the vertex in this branch tree;

[0068] 2) Expand the branch tree by searching in different directions. Starting with the displaced circuit breaker, conduct a topology search in the directions described in 1) to obtain other primary devices or circuit breakers adjacent to the current primary device in the power grid. The other primary devices or circuit breakers found can be expanded into the branch tree as new nodes. Determine whether the search terminates here or needs to be further expanded to search for other primary devices based on the displacement status of other circuit breakers. If the adjacent other circuit breakers have also displaced, the starting circuit breaker and the newly found circuit breaker are complementary, and the search can stop at the newly found displaced circuit breaker. The newly found displaced circuit breaker can be included as part of the closed-loop topology, and the complementary displaced circuit breaker node is identified using a "shaded" symbol in the branch tree. If the adjacent other circuit breakers have not displaced, it indicates that further topology analysis of the current primary device in the power grid is needed to determine other primary devices adjacent to this primary device in the power grid, and expand the scope of the topology analysis. The newly found primary device in the power grid is then treated as a new child node in the branch tree.

[0069] 3) Termination condition for branch tree establishment. Repeat the above search process until another circuit breaker complementary to the initial circuit breaker is found, or after a certain number of steps, through an expanded topology search, no circuit breaker complementary to the initial circuit breaker and capable of forming a closed-loop topology is found. If, starting from a child node at the vertex of the branch tree, the search terminates at several nodes marked with "shaded" symbols, it indicates that the search direction of the initial branch breaker is the correct direction for searching the power grid fault range. The subtree formed by the branch breaker's child node as the vertex and each branch breaker searched from that child node as a node covers the candidate primary equipment for the power grid fault, and the corresponding closed-loop topology is the closed-loop topology associated with the initial branch breaker. If, starting from a child node at the vertex of the branch tree, the search fails to find any branch breakers, or even if a certain number of branch breakers are found, but some branches of the branch tree in that direction can extend indefinitely without terminating, it indicates that no trace of the power grid fault was found in the initial branch breaker and the initial search direction, and the power grid fault could not have occurred in that search direction of the branch breaker.

[0070] (3) Following the search method in step (2), the primary devices of the power grid covered in the subtree of the branch tree constructed with any variable circuit breaker as the vertex, from a certain child node of the branch tree as the vertex to each variable circuit breaker searched from that child node as the node, are identified as candidate power grid fault devices for this power grid fault location. Repeating the method in step (2), the search of the closed-loop topology associated with each variable circuit breaker can be completed. Therefore, the possible faulty primary devices of this power grid fault are the union of the primary devices of the power grid covered by the above-mentioned subtrees of the branch tree.

[0071] also, Figure 2 This diagram illustrates the power grid topology related to a power grid fault and the information on circuit breakers that experienced displacement. Solid lines represent lines, and intersections between solid lines represent busbars. A connection from one busbar to another via a line contains two circuit breakers; these are the two circuit breakers located near the two busbars on the connecting line. Displaced circuit breakers are marked with an "×" in the diagram. For simplicity, circuit breakers that did not undergo displacement are not marked. During a natural disaster, multiple faults occurred in the power grid, and relay protection activated the circuit breakers, causing them to shift. Figure 1 A circuit breaker displacement occurred at the location indicated by the "×" symbol. Using the topology graph search method described in this invention, a branching tree is constructed with any displacement circuit breaker as its vertex. This branching tree is then expanded. Based on whether adjacent primary equipment in the power grid has a displacement circuit breaker and whether the displacement circuit breaker and the initial displacement circuit breaker form a complementary displacement circuit breaker, the analysis determines whether adjacent primary equipment is in the closed-loop topology. The subtree of the branching tree containing the primary equipment related to the closed-loop topology is then obtained, thus determining the scope of the power grid fault.

[0072] Using the displaced 2(6) circuit breaker as the vertex, the branching tree for dividing the power grid fault range is constructed as follows: Figure 3 As shown. Line 2-6 refers to the line connecting busbar 2 and busbar 6. Circuit breaker 2(6) refers to the circuit breaker located between line 2-6 and busbar 2. The meanings of other symbols are similar and will not be repeated. The specific steps for constructing a branch tree with the displaced circuit breaker 2(6) as the vertex are as follows:

[0073] 1) Search for the primary equipment of the power grid adjacent to the 2(6) circuit breaker, specifically line 2-6 and bus 2M. This means that the possible cause of the 2(6) circuit breaker displacement is a fault in line 2-6 or a fault in bus 2M.

[0074] 2) Based on step 1), the branching tree continues to expand. The expansion for line 2-6 and bus 2M is from circuit breaker 2(6) towards line 2-6 and from circuit breaker 2(6) towards bus 2M, respectively. Figure 1It can be seen that by expanding the branch tree along the direction from circuit breaker 2(6) to line 2-6, the primary device adjacent to line 2-6 is the displacement circuit breaker 6(2). This indicates that the search starts from the child node "line 2-6" and ends in this direction with the displacement circuit breaker 6(2). Therefore, the primary device "line 2-6" covered in the branch tree subtree with the child node "line 2-6" as the vertex is the candidate fault device for this power grid fault location. It is not difficult to analyze and find that the displacement circuit breaker 6(2) and the displacement circuit breaker 2(6) located at the apex of the branch tree have a complementary relationship in playing the role of clearing grid faults. The reason is that in the search direction of "line 2-6", there is only one branch of "line 2-6", and this branch terminates at the displacement circuit breaker 6(2). This indicates that from the perspective of the displacement circuit breaker 2(6), the displacement circuit breaker "6(2)" works together with it in the direction of "line 2-6" to clear the possible fault point located on "line 2-6". The displacement circuit breaker 2(6) and the displacement circuit breaker 6(2) can form a closed-loop topology, such as Figure 2 The area within the dashed box in the branching tree is shown. Correspondingly, as... Figure 2 As shown, the displacement circuit breaker 2 (6) and the displacement circuit breaker 6 (2) form a closed-loop topology, and the closed-loop topology includes a candidate fault device "line 2-6".

[0075] When searching along the direction of bus 2M from the circuit breaker 2(6), the other circuit breakers adjacent to bus 2M are not displaced. Therefore, the primary equipment of the power grid adjacent to bus 2M is found to be line 1-2 and line 2-3. Along the same search direction, the circuit breaker 1(2) of line 1-2 and the circuit breaker 3(2) of line 2-3 are not displaced. Therefore, the search continues, and the primary equipment bus 1M and bus 3M adjacent to line 1-2 and line 2-3 are found respectively. Continuing the search along this direction, since there are no displaced circuit breakers on bus 1M and bus 3M, the primary equipment of the power grid adjacent to bus 1M and bus 3M are all lines. Therefore, the branch tree continues to expand. As the depth of the branch tree increases, no complementary circuit breaker to the circuit breaker 2(6) located at the apex of the branch tree is found in this direction, indicating that the probability of a power grid fault occurring in this direction is extremely small. Therefore, the primary equipment of the power grid in the subtree of this branch tree is not considered as a candidate power grid fault device.

[0076] By combining the two subtrees of the branch tree with "displacement circuit breaker 2(6)" as the vertex in the directions of "line 2-6" and "bus 2M", the closed-loop topology obtained by searching with displacement circuit breaker 2(6) as the starting point is circuit breaker 2(6)-line 2-6-circuit breaker 6(2), and the candidate device for power grid fault "line 2-6" is obtained. By continuing the search using this step, the closed-loop topologies obtained by searching with other displacement circuit breakers as the starting point can be obtained, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0077] Table 1 Closed-loop topology related to variable-displacement circuit breakers

[0078] 2(6) Circuit breaker 2(6) - Line 2-6 - Circuit breaker 6(2) Line 2-6 6(2) Circuit breaker 2(6) - Line 2-6 - Circuit breaker 6(2) Line 2-6 11(12) Circuit breaker 11(12) - Line 11-12 - Circuit breaker 12(11) Line 11-12 12(11) Circuit breaker 11(12) - Line 11-12 - Circuit breaker 12(11) Line 11-12 14(15) Circuit breaker 14(15) - Line 14-15 - Circuit breaker 15(14) Line 14-15 15(14) Circuit breaker 14(15) - Line 14-15 - Circuit breaker 15(14) Line 14-15

[0079] The union of the candidate power grid fault devices shown in Table 1 is taken as the range of candidate devices for this power grid fault diagnosis, namely lines 2-6, 11-12, and 14-15.

[0080] Furthermore, the second example of this application selects... Figure 4 The local power grid shown, Figure 4 The circuit breaker is marked with an "×", and A and B refer to two transmission lines respectively. Figure 4 The line in the upper middle position is line A. Figure 4 The line in the lower middle position is line B. The method using this invention is as follows: Figure 4 A branch tree is established for each of the variable-position circuit breakers to define the fault range. Taking variable-position circuit breakers 4(3)A and 1(2)A as the search starting points, the branch trees established are as follows: Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown. Line 4-3A refers to line A connecting busbar 4 and busbar 3. Circuit breaker 4(3)A refers to the circuit breaker between line 4-3A and busbar 4, and so on. Figure 5 , Figure 6 The dashed box area represents the branching subtrees obtained by searching along the 3-4A line and the 1-2A line, starting from the variable-position circuit breakers 4(3)A and 1(2)A respectively. The leaf nodes in the subtree correspond to the complementary variable-position circuit breakers of circuit breakers 4(3)A and 1(2)A respectively. The dashed box area represents the closed-loop topology corresponding to the variable-position circuit breakers 4(3)A and 1(2)A. The primary equipment of the power grid covered by the dashed box area serves as the candidate equipment for power grid fault location.

[0081] Similarly, candidate faulty devices in the power grid were calculated with other variable-position circuit breakers as the search starting point, and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0082] Table 2 Candidate grid fault devices associated with variable-position circuit breakers

[0083]

[0084]

[0085] Based on the candidate power grid fault devices related to each variable circuit breaker in Table 2, the range of candidate devices for power grid fault diagnosis is obtained by taking the union of the sets: Line 1-2A, Line 1-2B, 2-station bus, Line 2-3A, Line 2-3B, 3-station bus, Line 3-4A, Line 3-4B, Line 3-7A, and Line 3-7B.

[0086] Therefore, by constructing a branch tree with a certain displacement circuit breaker as the vertex, the complementary displacement circuit breakers related to that displacement circuit breaker are determined, thereby determining the minimum cut set of the displacement circuit breaker. The primary equipment of the power grid within the minimum cut set is taken as the primary equipment for fault candidates, thus accurately analyzing the primary equipment for power grid faults.
