Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of power system protection and control, and in particular relates to a short-circuit fault judgment method and device suitable for the load side of a main protection system. Background Art

[0002] "Power sway" is a phenomenon of short-term voltage fluctuation or short-term power outage in the power grid caused by lightning strikes, short circuits or other disturbances. It is also a common power quality problem in industrial enterprises. In order to ensure the power supply reliability of important loads, the bus voltage maintenance system (hereinafter referred to as the bus voltage maintenance system) is an important anti-power sway method and is becoming more and more widely used.

[0003] After the bus protection system is activated, the current limiting reactor will be put into use, which will quickly support the bus voltage at more than 95%, and at the same time significantly reduce the short-circuit current. However, the reduction of short-circuit current will have an adverse effect on the lower-level protection that uses current as a criterion. There are two main existing solutions. The first is to abandon the rapidity of protection and use long-delay protection, that is, overcurrent II stage to cut off the fault. This method increases the damage of short-circuit faults to the primary system. The second is to ensure that the protection can still operate after the current limiting reactor is put into use by reducing the set value, but this method sacrifices the reliability and selectivity of the protection, resulting in problems such as false operation or over-tripping.

[0004] Therefore, in a power system using a main protection system, when a short circuit fault occurs on the load side of the main protection system, it is very important to be able to accurately identify the fault while taking into account the reliability, selectivity and sensitivity of the protection device for the safe power supply of large industrial enterprises.

[0014] The above-mentioned protection action conditions also include action delay; when the maximum current on the load side of the main protection system is greater than the set action current setting and maintains the time set by the action time setting, it is judged as a protection action; after the protection action, when the maximum current on the load side of the main protection system is less than the action current setting, the protection action returns immediately.

[0015] In the above step 2, all the interlocking opening conditions are met, including the operation of the bus protection system and the input of the current limiting reactor; the negative sequence voltage value of the bus voltage is higher than the set negative sequence voltage setting, or any bus voltage line voltage is lower than the set low voltage setting, and the composite voltage interlocking element is opened.

Figure 2 As shown;

[0042] The protection function is activated, which means that the hard pressure plate, soft pressure plate and control word are all activated;

[0043] The protection start refers to comparing the maximum current value collected on the load side of the mother protection system with the set starting current constant value to determine whether the protection is started; when determining the protection start, delayed start and delayed return are also added; the maximum current value can be the maximum effective value, the maximum transient value, the maximum change value, etc.;

[0054] In this embodiment, the judgment unit judges whether a short circuit fault occurs within the protected range according to the following criteria: the protection function is put into operation, the protection is started, the protection is in action, and all the locking and opening conditions are met at the same time;

[0055] Among them, when the judgment unit judges whether the protection is started, it compares the collected current on the load side of the mother protection system with the set starting current constant value, and can also add delayed start and delayed return;

[0056] Specifically, the starting current constant I is set in advance. set1 , Start time setting value T set1 And the expansion time setting value T after startup set2 , when the maximum value of the three-phase current I max Greater than the starting current setting I set1 When the delay start time is set to T set1 After the protection is started; after the protection is started, when the maximum value of the collected three-phase current I max Less than the starting current setting I set1 When the delay widening time is set to T set2 After that, the protection returns.
