Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of power system automation and active distribution network protection and control technology, and particularly relates to a fault variation impedance differential protection method applicable to active distribution networks containing inverter-type distributed power sources. Background Technology
[0002] With the large-scale integration of new power generation, grid, load, and storage systems, the traditional centralized power supply mode of large power grids is increasingly revealing its inherent defects in terms of flexibility and power supply reliability. Meanwhile, distributed power sources, represented by inverter-interfaced distributed generators (IIDGs), are widely adopted due to their advantages of high efficiency, flexibility, clean operation, and low carbon emissions, transforming traditional distribution networks into active distribution networks containing a large number of distributed power sources.
[0003] The integration of IIDG (Integrated Ionized Diode) grids transforms traditional single-ended radial distribution networks into multi-ended active distribution networks. Traditional overcurrent protection designs based on single-ended power grids are prone to losing selectivity. Furthermore, the current-limiting measures employed by IIDGs to prevent device overcurrent restrict fault current, reducing the sensitivity of traditional overcurrent protection. Clearly, the power supply structure and fault characteristics of active distribution networks incorporating IIDGs undergo significant changes, rendering traditional overcurrent protection inapplicable. To address this technical challenge in the field of relay protection for active distribution networks, existing technologies include improvements to traditional overcurrent protection and research into new methods such as differential protection and wide-area protection suitable for active distribution networks.
[0004] (1) Improvement of traditional overcurrent protection
[0005] Adaptive overcurrent protection improves the performance of traditional overcurrent protection by monitoring changes in grid voltage and current and adjusting the settings and parameters of the overcurrent protection in real time according to the grid's operating status. However, this method only passively adapts to the fault characteristics of active distribution networks containing IIDGs. While it improves the selectivity of overcurrent protection to some extent, it cannot solve the problem of decreased protection sensitivity. Existing technologies also employ the concept of control-protection coordination, actively controlling the phase angle of the IIDG equivalent impedance to make the directional element operate at its maximum sensitivity angle, thus improving the sensitivity of directional overcurrent protection. However, with the increasing penetration of distributed generation, the above-mentioned overcurrent protection improvement methods utilizing adaptive and control-protection coordination measures still have shortcomings in coordinating sensitivity and selectivity.
[0006] (2) Differential protection is used in active distribution networks
[0007] Differential protection with absolute selectivity is widely used in high-voltage transmission networks. Introducing it into active distribution networks, which also have multiple power sources, can fundamentally improve protection performance. Differential protection suitable for active distribution networks includes current differential protection and impedance differential protection. Current differential protection determines whether a fault in an active distribution network occurs within the protected line by comparing the relationship between the differential current and the restraining current. However, current differential protection requires strict synchronization of the currents at both ends of the line involved in the protection calculation, which is difficult to achieve in active distribution networks with weak communication conditions. To address this, existing technologies utilize 5G communication technology to improve the communication conditions of the distribution network or employ methods such as fault data self-synchronization (FDSS) to address the data synchronization problem of current differential protection. However, the use of 5G communication technology is too costly, while current differential protection methods based on the FDSS algorithm do not fundamentally reduce the requirement for data synchronization.
[0008] Impedance differential protection calculates the differential impedance and restraining impedance using the naturally synchronized voltage and current at the same terminal. By comparing the relationship between the differential impedance and the restraining impedance, the location of the fault inside or outside the protection zone is determined. Compared with current differential protection, it does not require strict synchronization of electrical quantities at both ends of the protected line. However, existing impedance differential protection is severely affected by transition resistance, and its sensitivity drops significantly when encountering faults with high transition resistance.
[0009] (3) Adopting wide-area protection of the entire network information
[0010] Wide-area protection is a type of protection method that utilizes information from the entire active distribution network. Existing adaptive wide-area protection methods first divide the power grid into several sub-networks or protection zones, and then calculate the fault identification vector by measuring the wide-area current to determine the fault location. Although wide-area protection methods can flexibly respond to changes in distribution network topology and operating modes, and have strong anti-interference capabilities, they require a large number of phasor measurement units and high-speed communication networks, and are not suitable for active distribution networks with weak communication conditions.
[0011] In summary, the overcurrent protection improved by using adaptive and control-protection coordination measures still has the problem of difficulty in coordinating selectivity and sensitivity. Furthermore, the existing current differential protection has high requirements for data synchronization and is not suitable for the weak communication conditions of the distribution network. Therefore, there is an urgent need to study new relay protection methods suitable for active distribution networks containing IIDG. Summary of the Invention
[0012] To overcome the aforementioned problems in the prior art, this invention discloses an active distribution network fault variation impedance differential protection method.
[0013] The specific technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows:
[0014] An active distribution network fault variation impedance differential protection method includes the following steps:
[0015] 1. Establish a data transmission system
[0016] In active power distribution networks, a data transmission system based on a peer-to-peer communication network is established, enabling adjacent protection devices to establish data transmission channels via wired physical direct connection or wireless virtual direct connection. Through this established data transmission system, protection devices at both ends of the protected line can exchange at high speed any information used for electrical quantity calculation and logical judgment, including analog sample values and binary states.
[0017] 2. Obtain the three-phase voltage and three-phase current at each location.
[0018] The two ends of the protected line are designated as M-end and N-end, where M-end represents the end of the protected line closer to the distribution network, and N-end represents the end farther from the distribution network and closer to the IIDG. Three-phase voltage and three-phase current are collected at three locations: M-end, N-end, and the IIDG grid connection point.
[0019] The M-terminal protection device uses a voltage transformer installed on the busbar to collect the instantaneous three-phase voltage value u at the M-terminal. MA (t), u MB (t) and u MC (t), the instantaneous value of the three-phase current i at terminal M is collected using a current transformer installed on the protected line. MA (t), i MB (t) and i MC (t), where t represents time.
[0020] Using the same method, the N-terminal protection device collects the instantaneous value u of the three-phase voltage at the N-terminal. NA (t), u NB (t) and u NC (t) and instantaneous value of three-phase current i NA (t), i NB (t) and i NC (t).
[0021] Using the same method, the control device installed at the IIDG grid connection point collected the instantaneous three-phase voltage value u at the IIDG grid connection point. GA (t), u GB (t) and u GC (t) and instantaneous value of three-phase current i GA (t), i GB (t) and i GC (t).
[0022] Through the data transmission system established in step 1, the M-terminal protection device and the N-terminal protection device respectively send their acquired instantaneous three-phase voltage and instantaneous three-phase current values to the other end, that is, the M-terminal sends u to the N-terminal. MA (t), u MB (t), u MC (t) and i MA (t), i MB (t), i MC (t), N sends u to M. NA (t), u NB (t), u NC (t) and i NA (t), i NB (t), i NC (t).
[0023] After the above direct acquisition and data transmission process, both the M-terminal protection device and the N-terminal protection device can obtain the directly acquired instantaneous values of their own three-phase voltage and three-phase current, as well as the transmitted instantaneous values of the opposite terminal's three-phase voltage and three-phase current. At this point, the instantaneous voltage and current values obtained by the M-terminal protection device and the N-terminal protection device are identical.
[0024] In the subsequent steps 3 to 7, the M-terminal protection device and the N-terminal protection device are executed in the same way. Therefore, the M-terminal protection device is used as an example in steps 3 to 7. When the N-terminal protection device processes the data, it replaces all the electrical quantities of the local terminal mentioned in these steps with the electrical quantities of the N terminal, and replaces the electrical quantities of the opposite terminal with the electrical quantities of the M terminal.
[0025] 3. Fault start-up diagnosis
[0026] The M-terminal protection device uses the instantaneous voltage and current values of its own end and the opposite end obtained in step 2 to determine whether a fault has occurred in the power grid by employing a sudden change in the starting element. Only when a fault is determined to have occurred using the instantaneous voltage and current values of its own end, and simultaneously determined to have occurred using the instantaneous voltage and current values of the opposite end, will the M-terminal protection device determine that a fault has been initiated and enter the fault handling process.
[0027] The fault detection and activation method of the N-terminal protection device is exactly the same as that of the M-terminal protection device.
[0028] The fault detection and activation method of the control device at the IIDG grid connection point is the same as that of the M-end protection device.
[0029] 4. Obtain fault change voltage and fault change current.
[0030] After a fault is identified as initiated in step 3, the fault handling process begins. Compared to the full fault, the fault variation is theoretically unaffected by load current, transition resistance, and IIDG operating mode. Therefore, this invention first obtains the fault variation voltage and fault variation current in the fault handling procedure for subsequent calculations.
[0031] The M-terminal protection device uses equation (1) to obtain the instantaneous value Δu of the fault change voltage at this terminal. Mφ (t), the instantaneous value Δi of the fault change current at this end is obtained using equation (2). Mφ (t).
[0032] Δu Mφ (t)=u Mφ (t)-u Mφ (t-nT) (1)
[0033] Δi Mφ (t)=i Mφ (t)-i Mφ (t-nT) (2)
[0034] In the formula, φ represents the phase, which takes values of A, B, and C; T represents the fundamental period; and n is a positive integer.
[0035] The M-terminal protection device uses the instantaneous values of the three-phase voltage and three-phase current at the opposite end to obtain the instantaneous value Δu of the voltage change due to the fault at the opposite end. Nφ (t) and the instantaneous value Δi of the fault change current at the opposite end. Nφ (t), when calculating, u in equations (1) and (2) Mφ (t) is replaced with u Nφ (t), i Mφ (t) is replaced with i Nφ (t).
[0036] Similar to the method used by the M-terminal protection device to obtain fault change quantities, the N-terminal protection device also obtains the instantaneous values of the fault change quantities voltage and current at both the local and remote ends.
[0037] The control device at the IIDG grid connection point uses the same method to obtain the instantaneous value Δu of the fault change voltage at the IIDG grid connection point. Gφ (t), and the instantaneous value Δi of the fault change current. Gφ (t).
[0038] 5. Obtain the positive sequence components of fault change voltage and fault change current.
[0039] Compared to the negative-sequence component, which only reflects asymmetric faults, the positive-sequence component can reflect both asymmetric and symmetric faults. Therefore, the protection method constructed using the positive-sequence component in this invention more comprehensively reflects the fault type.
[0040] The M-terminal protection device uses the instantaneous sequence component extraction method to calculate the instantaneous value Δu of the positive sequence component of the fault change voltage at this terminal. M1 (t) and the instantaneous value Δi of the positive sequence component of the fault change current. M1 (t), and calculate the instantaneous value Δu of the positive-sequence component of the voltage change at the opposite end of the fault. N1 (t), Instantaneous value Δi of the positive sequence component of the fault change current N1 (t).
[0041] The N-terminal protection device uses the same method to obtain the positive sequence components of the fault change voltage and current at its own and opposite ends.
[0042] The control device at the IIDG grid connection point also uses the same sequence component extraction method to calculate the instantaneous value Δu of the positive sequence component of the fault change voltage. G1 (t), instantaneous value Δi of the positive sequence component of the fault change current G1 (t).
[0043] Then, the M-terminal and N-terminal protection devices and the IIDG grid connection point control device use a phasor extraction algorithm to calculate the effective value and phase of the phasor corresponding to the positive sequence components of each of the above-mentioned fault change quantities. The above-mentioned phasors include the positive sequence phasor of the fault change quantity voltage at the M-terminal. The positive-sequence phasor of the fault change current at the M-terminal The positive-sequence phasor of the N-terminal fault change voltage The positive-sequence phasor of the fault change current at the N-terminal terminal. IIDG grid connection point fault change voltage positive sequence phasor Positive sequence phasor of fault change current at IIDG grid connection point
[0044] 6. Implement constant phase angle control for IIDG.
[0045] After the control device at the IIDG grid connection point detects a fault, it uses a smooth switching method to switch the constant power control strategy or constant frequency and constant voltage control strategy before the fault to the constant phase angle control strategy after the fault, and implements constant phase angle control of the IIDG until the fault is cleared.
[0046] After the control strategy is switched, the reference value of the inner current loop of the IIDG dual closed-loop control is calculated according to the following steps.
[0047] (1) Locate the instantaneous three-phase voltage values at the grid connection point before the fault start-up from the data buffer of the control device, and extract its positive sequence component u using the instantaneous sequence component extraction method. G|0| (t), and then use the phasor extraction algorithm to calculate the corresponding phasor. After a fault start-up, the control device extracts the positive sequence component u using the instantaneous value of the three-phase voltage at the grid connection point. G1 (t), and then use the phasor extraction algorithm to calculate the corresponding phasor.
[0048] (2) Use equation (3) to calculate the voltage drop degree k.

[0054] In the formula, The phase angle control target for IIDG should be close to the phase angle of the equivalent impedance of the distribution network, i.e. θ ΔU,G1 The positive-sequence component of the IIDG grid connection point fault change voltage obtained in step 5. The phase; β∈[1.2,2.0], I N This indicates the rated current of the IIDG.
[0055] 7. Calculate the measured impedance at terminals M and N.
[0056] Based on the positive-sequence components of the fault change voltage and current obtained in step 5 at terminal M. And the positive sequence components of the voltage and current changes during faults at the N-terminal. The M-terminal protection device calculates the measured impedance Z at this terminal using equations (6) and (7), respectively. CM and the measured impedance Z at the other end CN .
[0057]
[0058]
[0059] Z CM and Z CN These respectively reflect the equivalent impedance of the back-side equivalent power supply of the M-terminal and N-terminal protection devices.
[0060] The method for calculating the measured impedance of the N-terminal protection device is the same as that of the M-terminal protection device, which is to calculate the measured impedance Z at this terminal. CN Also calculate the measured impedance Z at the other end. CM .
[0061] 8. Calculate the differential impedance and braking impedance using the impedance measurements at both ends.
[0062] The M-terminal protection device calculates the measured impedance Z at this terminal. CM and the measured impedance Z at the other end CN Then, the differential impedance Z is calculated using equation (8). dif The braking impedance Z is calculated using equation (9). res .
[0063] Z dif =Z CM -Z CN =|Z dif |∠θ d (8)
[0064] Z res =Z CM +Z CN =|Z res |∠θ r (9)
[0065] The results of measuring impedance, differential impedance, and braking impedance for faults at different locations are shown in Table 1.
[0066] Table 1. Results of measured impedance, differential impedance, and braking impedance for faults at different locations.

[0068] Z in Table 1 S The positive sequence impedance of the equivalent system of the distribution network behind the M-terminal protection installation location is obtained by performing Thevenin equivalence on the distribution network; Z DG The positive sequence equivalent impedance of the power grid containing the IIDG section on the back side of the N-terminal protection installation location; Z L1 This is the positive sequence impedance of the protected line.
[0069] The N-terminal protection device also uses the same method as Equations (8) and (9) to independently calculate the differential impedance and braking impedance.
[0070] 9. Fault detection and isolation
[0071] Whether the M-end protection device continuously judges whether equation (10) is valid.
[0072] |Z dif |<|Z res | (10)
[0073] Equation (10) is the constructed protection criterion, which is maintained for T hours after the fault starts. d If equation (10) is satisfied continuously within a time period, it is determined to be an intra-zone fault. The M-end protection device sends a trip signal to its own end, i.e., the M-end circuit breaker, to achieve fault isolation; otherwise, it is identified as an extra-zone fault and no trip signal is sent to its own circuit breaker.
[0074] Similarly, if the N-terminal protection device is activated due to a fault, it will continue to operate for T... d If equation (10) is satisfied continuously within a time period, it is determined to be a fault within the zone, and a trip signal is sent to the circuit breaker at the local end, i.e., the N-end, to achieve fault isolation.
[0075] The beneficial effects of this invention include:
[0076] (1) A protection criterion was constructed using the measured impedances at both ends of the protected line to achieve fault identification. The constructed protection criterion is only related to the equivalent impedances of the power supplies at both ends and the line impedance, and the setting is simple. Based on the concept of control and protection coordination, the protection performance during faults in the zone can be further improved by controlling the phase angle of the equivalent impedance of IIDG.
[0077] (2) Compared with current differential protection, this invention uses the naturally synchronized voltage and current at the same terminal to calculate the measurement impedance, thus reducing the data synchronization requirements. Under the condition of data asynchrony, the protection only delays operation when there is a fault within the zone, and reliably does not operate when there is a fault outside the zone.
[0078] (3) The present invention improves the resistance to transition resistance by utilizing the fault variation amount, and the protection performance is not affected by the penetration rate of distributed power sources and the line length. Attached Figure Description

[0083] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples, but this is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. All technical solutions obtained by equivalent substitution or equivalent transformation are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0084] In such Figure 1 In the 10kV active distribution network shown, line L1 is the protected line, and busbars B1 and B3 correspond to the two ends of the protected line L1, namely the M end and the N end, respectively. The length of line L1 is 5km. f1, f2, and f3 are the fault points within the protected line L1, corresponding to positions at 5%, 50%, and 95% of the distance from busbar B1, respectively; f4, f5, and f6 are the fault points outside the protected area on the back side of the M end, the fault points outside the protected area on the back side of the N end, and the fault points outside the protected area on the adjacent line L2, respectively. The process of the M-end protection device completing fault detection and fault isolation is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the fault detection and fault isolation process of the N-terminal protection device is similar; it only requires... Figure 2 The acquisition end is changed to the N end, and the receiving end is changed to the M end.
[0085] Example 1:
[0086] Assume a phase-C ground fault occurs at point f2, with a fault time of t0 = 1.0s and a duration of 0.1s. This is considered an in-zone fault for the protected line L1.
[0087] 1. Establish a data transmission system
[0088] In an active power distribution network, a data transmission system based on a peer-to-peer communication network is established. Adjacent protection devices transmit data via direct fiber optic connections, employing an Ethernet link layer direct mapping communication protocol based on the IEC 61850 standard. The SV (Sampled Value) and GOOSE (Generic Object Oriented Substation Event) protocols, conforming to the IEC 61850 standard, are used to transmit analog instantaneous values and binary status information, respectively. Specifically, the analog instantaneous values transmitted between adjacent protection devices are sequentially composed of SV frames, including phase A voltage, phase B voltage, phase C voltage, phase A current, phase B current, and phase C current. Binary status information is sequentially composed of GOOSE frames, including fault initiation status, fault identification results within the zone, tripping commands, and standby status. The transmission frequency of SV frames is consistent with the sampling frequency; the transmission frequency of GOOSE frames is densely transmitted when there is a status change, and a heartbeat message is sent every 5 seconds when there is no status change. The transmission mechanism complies with the IEC 61850 standard.
[0089] 2. Obtain the three-phase voltage and three-phase current at each location.
[0090] M-end protection device utilizes the installation on Figure 1 The voltage transformer at busbar B1 collects the instantaneous voltage value u. MA (t), u MB (t) and u MC (t), utilizing the device installed in Figure 1 The current transformer at R1 collects the instantaneous current value i. MA (t), i MB (t) and i MC (t). Figure 3 (a) shows the instantaneous waveforms of the three-phase voltage and the three-phase current at terminal M.
[0091] N-terminal protection device utilizes the installation on Figure 1 The voltage transformer at busbar B3 collects the instantaneous voltage value u. NA (t), u NB (t) and u NC (t), utilizing the device installed in Figure 1 The current transformer at R2 collects the instantaneous current value i. NA (t), i NB (t) and i NC (t).
[0092] The control device at the IIDG2 grid connection point uses voltage and current transformers installed at the grid connection point to collect data. Figure 1 Instantaneous value of three-phase voltage u at R10 GA (t), u GB (t) and u GC (t), and the instantaneous value of the three-phase current i GA (t), i GB (t) and i GC (t).
[0093] Through the data transmission system established in step 1, the M-end protection device receives the u sent by the peer protection device. NA (t), u NB (t), u NC (t), i NA (t), i NB (t) and i NC (t); The N-end protection device receives u sent by the peer protection device. MA (t), u MB (t), u MC (t), i MA (t), i MB (t) and i MC (t).
[0094] After the above direct acquisition and data transmission process, both the M-terminal protection device and the N-terminal protection device can obtain the directly acquired instantaneous values of their own three-phase voltage and three-phase current, as well as the transmitted instantaneous values of the opposite terminal's three-phase voltage and three-phase current. At this point, the instantaneous voltage and current values obtained by the M-terminal protection device and the N-terminal protection device are identical.
[0095] In the subsequent steps 3 to 7, the M-terminal protection device and the N-terminal protection device are executed in the same way. Therefore, the M-terminal protection device is used as an example in steps 3 to 7. When the N-terminal protection device processes the data, it replaces all the electrical quantities of the local terminal mentioned in these steps with the electrical quantities of the N terminal, and replaces the electrical quantities of the opposite terminal with the electrical quantities of the M terminal.
[0096] 3. Fault start-up diagnosis
[0097] Based on the instantaneous voltage and current values obtained in step 2, the M-terminal protection device performs fault start judgment. It uses the phase current mutation start method to determine whether a fault has occurred for the three-phase current at the M-terminal and the phase voltage mutation start method to determine whether a fault has occurred for the three-phase voltage at the N-terminal. Only when both the M-terminal phase current and the N-terminal phase voltage indicate a fault, the M-terminal protection device determines that a fault has occurred.
[0098] The process of the phase current sudden change start-up method adopted by the M-terminal protection device is as follows.
[0099] First, use equation (11) to calculate the phase current mutation |Δi| corresponding to the kth instantaneous value at this end. φ (k)|.
[0100] |Δi φ (k)|=|i φ (k)-i φ (kN T )|-|i φ (kN T )-i φ (k-2N T (11)
[0101] In the formula, i φ (kN T ) and i φ (k-2N T ) respectively represent the (kN)th phase current T ) and the (k-2N) T ) instantaneous values; N T N represents the number of sampling points per wave, which is taken as N in this embodiment. T =24.
[0102] The instantaneous value at t = 0s is denoted as k = 1, and the sampling frequency is 1200Hz. Therefore, the instantaneous value at fault occurrence time t = 1.0s is k = 1200. At k = 1202, k = 1203, and k = 1204, the sudden changes calculated by the M-terminal protection device using the C-phase current at this terminal are |Δi|, respectively. C (1202)|=0.102kA、|Δi C (1203)|=0.160kA and |Δi C (1204)|=0.225kA. At this time, the three consecutive instantaneous values satisfy equation (12).
[0103] |Δi φ (k)|>I set (12)
[0104] In the formula, I set The phase current start-up threshold value is I, which is taken as I in this embodiment. set =0.1kA.
[0105] Therefore, when k = 1204, the M-terminal protection device uses the instantaneous value of the phase current at this terminal to determine that a fault has occurred in the power grid.
[0106] Similar to the judgment process of the phase current surge initiation method described above, the M-terminal protection device uses the phase voltage surge initiation method based on the instantaneous value of the phase voltage at the opposite end to determine whether a fault has occurred. Calculations show that at k=1201, k=1202, and k=1203, the phase voltage surge initiation calculated by the M-terminal protection device using the phase C voltage at the opposite end are |Δu C (1201)|=5.455kV、|Δu C (1202)|=6.678kV and |Δu C (1203)|=7.725kV. At this time, the three consecutive instantaneous values satisfy equation (13).
[0107] |Δu φ (k)|>U set (13)
[0108] In the formula, U set This is the phase voltage start-up threshold value. In this embodiment, it is set to U. set =0.05kV.
[0109] Therefore, when k = 1203, the M-terminal protection device also determines that a fault has occurred in the power grid by using the instantaneous value of the phase voltage at the opposite end.
[0110] Based on the above judgment results, when k=1204, the M-terminal protection device has determined that a fault has occurred in the power grid using both the phase current at this end and the phase voltage at the opposite end. At this time, the M-terminal protection device determines that the fault has been activated and enters the fault handling process.
[0111] The fault activation process of the N-terminal protection device is the same as that of the M-terminal protection device: it uses the instantaneous value of the M-terminal phase current and the phase current mutation to determine whether a fault has occurred, and it also uses the instantaneous value of the N-terminal phase voltage and the phase voltage mutation to determine whether a fault has occurred. Consistent with the determination result of the M-terminal protection device, the N-terminal protection device also determines fault activation when k=1204.
[0112] The IIDG2 grid connection point control device also uses its instantaneous grid connection point voltage and phase voltage start-up method to determine fault start-up, which is the grid connection point voltage.
