[0034] The embodiment of the present application provides a medium voltage line fault location method, Figure 1 is a flow chart of a medium voltage line fault location method provided by the embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 1 The medium voltage line fault location method comprises the following steps.
[0035] S110, acquiring the node state of the line monitoring node sent by each node monitoring device; wherein the node monitoring device is arranged in the distribution network line, and the node monitoring device is used to acquire the voltage and current of the line monitoring node, to determine the impedance size and impedance angle of the line monitoring node according to the voltage and current of the line monitoring node, and to determine the node state of the line monitoring node according to the impedance size and impedance angle of the line monitoring node.
[0036] The node state refers to the current condition or status of the line monitoring node in the power grid. In the power system, the node state generally reflects the combination of electrical parameters such as voltage, current, power factor, etc. at the node. The node state is determined by the voltage and current data obtained by the monitoring device, and the impedance size and impedance angle are calculated by the voltage and current data. The impedance size is the ratio of voltage to current in the circuit, and the impedance size of the node can be calculated by measuring the voltage and current of the line monitoring node and using Ohm's law. In the medium-voltage line, the impedance size reflects the impedance of the line to alternating current, and when the line is in a normal state, the impedance value remains in a relatively stable range, and when the line fails, the impedance value at the fault point will change. The impedance angle is determined according to the voltage and current of the line monitoring node, and the impedance angle is the phase angle of the impedance in the complex plane. In the medium-voltage line, the impedance angle reflects the phase difference between voltage and current. For example, for a pure resistance circuit, the voltage and current are in phase, and the impedance angle is 0°; for a pure inductance or pure capacitance circuit, there is a 90° phase difference between the voltage and the current.
[0037] S120, marking the node state of each line monitoring node in the wiring topology diagram, and determining the line fault section according to the marking result.
[0038] The wiring topology diagram is a kind of graph used to show the connection relationship and layout between components in a power system, a communication network, a power distribution network or any other electrical or electronic system. In this embodiment, the wiring topology diagram is used to show the connection mode and physical layout between lines, switches, transformers, node monitoring devices and other devices in the power distribution network.
[0039] Specifically, the monitoring device is installed at the node of the distribution network line, which can collect the voltage and current at the location in real time, calculate the impedance size and impedance angle of each line monitoring node according to the collected voltage and current data, compare the calculated impedance size and impedance angle with the preset impedance, and determine the forward and reverse directions of each line monitoring node. According to the wiring topology diagram of the known distribution network line, the monitoring device is corresponded to the corresponding position of the wiring topology diagram, and the forward and reverse directions of the monitoring device are one-to-one corresponded, the forward and reverse directions of each node are marked on the wiring topology diagram, and the line fault section is determined according to the marking result of each node on the wiring topology diagram.
[0040] The medium-voltage line fault positioning method provided by the embodiment of the application comprises: acquiring the node state of a line monitoring node sent by each node monitoring device; wherein the node monitoring device is arranged in a distribution network line, the node monitoring device is used to acquire the voltage and current of the line monitoring node, to determine the impedance size and impedance angle of the line monitoring node according to the voltage and current of the line monitoring node, and to determine the node state of the line monitoring node according to the impedance size and impedance angle of the line monitoring node, the analysis of the impedance size and impedance angle helps to identify potential problems or faults in the power grid, and the accuracy of fault positioning is improved. The node state of each line monitoring node is marked in a connection topology diagram, and the line fault section is determined according to the marking result, through visual analysis, the fault section can be quickly positioned, and the fault troubleshooting time is reduced. The technical scheme of the embodiment only transmits the node state of each monitoring line, without transmitting 12 measurement points including three-phase voltage amplitude, phase and three-phase current amplitude, phase, has the advantages of simple and fast calculation, and solves the problem of a large amount of data of the new power system occupying the computing resources of the master station. The positive and negative directions of the fault current are sent to the master station, and the fault section of the line can be determined. By monitoring and analyzing the node state in real time, abnormalities can be found in time before the fault occurs, and corresponding preventive measures can be taken, which helps to reduce the power-off time and loss caused by the fault, realizes the rapid positioning and accurate judgment of the fault, and improves the power supply reliability and stability of the power grid.
[0041] Optionally, when the impedance size of the line monitoring node is greater than or equal to a set value, the node state of the line monitoring node is normal;
[0042] When the impedance size of the line monitoring node is less than the set value and the impedance angle is in a preset angle range, the node state of the line monitoring node is the first state.
[0043] When the impedance size of the line monitoring node is less than or equal to the set value and the impedance angle is not in the preset angle range, the node state of the line monitoring node is the second state.
[0044] The first state is used to represent the direction of the fault current of the line monitoring node, for example, the first state determines that the direction of the fault current is positive. The second state is also used to represent the direction of the fault current of the line monitoring node, for example, the second state determines that the direction of the fault current is negative.
[0045] Specifically, when the impedance size of a certain node is greater than or equal to a set value, the node state of the node is normal, that is, a non-line fault section; when the impedance size of a certain node is less than the set value and the impedance angle is in a preset angle range, the node state of the node is determined to be positive; when the impedance size of a certain node is less than the set value and the impedance angle is not in the preset angle range, the node state of the node is determined to be negative.
[0046] Optionally, the setting values of different line monitoring nodes are different.
[0047] Specifically, the different line monitoring nodes set different setting values to better adapt to the complexity of power grid structure, the diversity of load characteristics, the diversity of fault types, the demand of operation and maintenance management, and the possibility of technical implementation. The operation state and fault characteristics of the line monitoring nodes can be better reflected, which helps to improve the accuracy and reliability of fault location.
[0048] Optionally, the node state of each line monitoring node is marked in the wiring topology diagram, and the line fault section is determined according to the marking result, including:
[0049] When the node state of all line monitoring nodes in the line section is the first state, the line section is determined as the line fault section.
[0050] Wherein, the line section refers to a section of line defined by two or more adjacent line monitoring nodes. The line fault section refers to a section in which the current flows to both ends of the section, forming at least two positive polarities at both ends of the section, i.e. the fault section.
[0051] Specifically, according to the wiring topology diagram of the known distribution network line, the monitoring device is corresponded to the corresponding position of the wiring topology diagram, and the positive and negative directions of the monitoring device are one-to-one corresponded. The positive and negative directions of each node are marked on the wiring topology diagram. According to the marking result of each node on the wiring topology diagram, the line fault section is determined. When the node state of all line monitoring nodes in the line section is the positive direction, the line section is determined as the line fault section.
[0052] Optionally, the node state of each line monitoring node is marked in the wiring topology diagram, and the line fault section is determined according to the marking result, including:
[0053] When the node state of each line monitoring node is the first state or the second state, the node state of the line monitoring node is marked in the wiring topology diagram.
[0054] Specifically, according to the wiring topology diagram of the known distribution network line, the monitoring device is corresponded to the corresponding position of the wiring topology diagram, and the positive and negative directions of the monitoring device are one-to-one corresponded. The node state of the line monitoring node is the first state or the second state. The positive direction of the fault current is represented by the first state, and the negative direction of the fault current is represented by the second state. The node state of each line monitoring node is marked on the wiring topology diagram.
[0055] For example, the fault discrimination impedance of a node of the power grid is set as Zd (a variable parameter). When any device installed on the medium voltage line of the distribution network detects the flow of the fault current, the measured impedance Zc and the angle φc are calculated according to the fault voltage and current. If Zc < Zd and the measured angle φc is within a certain range, the direction of the fault current is considered as the positive direction; if Zc < Zd in other cases, the direction of the fault current is considered as the reverse direction; if Zc ≥ Zd, no calculation result is generated. The master station system establishes or acquires the known line connection mode graph of the distribution network, and corresponds the monitoring device to the corresponding position of the line topology graph, and corresponds the positive and reverse directions of the installed device one by one. After the fault occurs, the monitoring device sends the positive direction or reverse direction action signal to the master station through the remote signaling. The master station marks on the line graph according to the positive and reverse direction signals sent by the monitoring device during the fault. When the positive direction signal is received by the measuring node, the positive direction defined by the line graph is positive, and the reverse direction defined by the line graph is negative. When the reverse direction signal is received by the measuring node, the reverse direction defined by the line graph is positive, and the positive direction defined by the line graph is negative. When there are two or more positive polarity marks in a certain section, and there is no negative polarity mark, the section is the fault section.
[0056] The technical scheme of the embodiment solves the problem that, after the distributed power supply is connected to the distribution network, the fault current is difficult to predict, the fixed value is difficult to match, and the fault section after the fault is difficult to accurately locate through the action of the relay protection due to the influence of factors such as the changeable operation mode of the distribution network and the dynamic change of the real-time power generation of the distributed power supply compared with the traditional power grid. The master station is accurately located through the fault transient impedance calculation mode, and the master station topology analysis is used to accurately locate the fault point. The method has the advantages of accurate fault location, small calculation amount and adaptability to various complex power grids. The fault is judged according to the state of each node in the entire line topology graph, and the fault section is judged comprehensively according to each node. The method can solve the problem that the fault current may flow upstream or downstream of the fault point during the fault, and the fault section cannot be determined only by the fault current and time.

The device is integrated in the master station, and the master station only needs to acquire the node state sent by the monitoring device, without acquiring the voltage amplitude, phase and current amplitude, phase of each phase.
