[0002] On the metal loop of the DC field of the UHV converter station, multi-column parallel arresters are usually installed. They have the characteristics of current sharing and strong energy absorption, and can effectively absorb the continuous current shock caused by the operating overvoltage of the metal loop. When the performance of a column arrester in the DC multi-column parallel arrester group deteriorates or fails, the overall performance of the arrester group will be affected; the existing detection method is to detect the single-column arrester during power outage; the distance between the two branches of the DC parallel arrester group is only 5 to 30 cm, and it is very difficult to dismantle and install. At the same time, the overall test of the arrester group is significantly affected by the capacity of the test equipment and spatial coupling; the existing online detection method of the DC multi-column parallel arrester group is limited, and it is impossible to grasp the operating status of each column arrester in the arrester group in real time. At present, it is very difficult to locate the fault of the arrester group. Summary of the invention

[0008] The insulation resistance of each column lightning arrester under the operating voltage is calculated by the DC line voltage of the line voltage divider and the DC leakage current of each column lightning arrester. The insulation resistance of each column lightning arrester under the operating voltage and the factory insulation resistance of the corresponding column lightning arrester are used to determine the insulation resistance status of each column lightning arrester.

When it is detected that the action current signal of any column lightning arrester meets the preset trigger condition, the high-speed synchronous acquisition module is started to collect a continuous waveform of the action current signal of a preset duration; the high-speed synchronous acquisition module sorts the continuous waveform of the action current signal with the DC line voltage collected by the line voltage sensor and the action current of each column lightning arrester collected by the action current sensor in chronological order of sampling time to form an action waveform.

[0014] When R 运行 >R 参考 , and the insulation resistance R 运行 When the slope of the curve fluctuating with the time axis is less than the preset slope k, the insulation resistance of the column arrester is degraded;

[0015] When R 运行 <R 参考 , and the insulation resistance R 运行 When the slope of the curve fluctuating with the time axis is less than the preset slope k, there is a fault in the insulation resistance of the column lightning arrester.

[0016] Optionally, the specific method for judging the dynamic resistance state of each column arrester by using the action resistance value of each column arrester, the average action resistance value of the arrester, the residual voltage resistance under the action current of each column arrester and the maximum change resistance value of each column arrester is:

[0017] When | R 动作 -R 平均 |<ΔR, and |R 动作 -R 残压 |<ΔR, the dynamic resistance state of the column arrester is normal, where R 动作 is the operating resistance value of a column arrester, R 平均 is the average value of the arrester action resistance, R 残压 is the residual voltage resistance of the column arrester under the operating current, ΔR is the maximum variable resistance value of the column arrester;

[0018] When | R 动作 -R 平均 |>ΔR, and |R 动作 -R 残压 |<ΔR, the dynamic resistance of the column arrester is degraded;

[0019] When | R 动作 -R 平均 |>ΔR, and |R 动作 -R 残压 |>ΔR, the column arrester is faulty.

[0020] Optionally, the specific method for calculating the average value of the arrester action resistance according to the action resistance value of each column arrester is:

[0021] The calculated action resistance values ​​of all arresters are sorted from large to small, the largest and smallest resistance values ​​are removed, and the average of the intermediate action resistance values ​​is calculated to obtain the average action resistance value of the arrester.

[0022] The present invention is a fault locating device for a DC multi-column parallel arrester in operation, comprising:

[0023] The DC leakage current sensor is used to collect the DC leakage current of each column arrester;

[0024] The line voltage sensor is used to collect the DC line voltage of the line voltage divider connected in parallel with the arrester in the DC field of the converter station;

[0025] The operating current sensor is used to collect the operating current of each column arrester;

[0040] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0041] Example 1

[0042] A method for locating faults in a DC multi-column parallel arrester in operation, comprising the following steps:

[0043] The DC leakage current of each column arrester is collected by the DC leakage current sensor 1, and the DC leakage current is a DC microampere level current;

[0044] The DC line voltage (DC low voltage signal) of the line voltage divider connected in parallel with the arrester in the DC field of the converter station is collected by the line voltage sensor 2;

[0045] The action current of each column arrester is collected through the action current sensor 3;

[0046] The insulation resistance of each column lightning arrester under the operating voltage is calculated by the DC line voltage of the line voltage divider and the DC leakage current of each column lightning arrester. The insulation resistance of each column lightning arrester under the operating voltage and the factory insulation resistance of the corresponding column lightning arrester are used to determine the insulation resistance status of each column lightning arrester.

[0047] Calculate the action resistance value of the corresponding column lightning arrester through the action current of each column lightning arrester; calculate the average action resistance of the lightning arrester according to the action resistance value of each column lightning arrester; use the residual voltage at the peak point of the action current of each column lightning arrester provided by the lightning arrester manufacturer or maintenance company to calculate the residual pressure resistance under the action current of each column lightning arrester; judge the state of the dynamic resistance of each column lightning arrester by the action resistance value of each column lightning arrester, the average action resistance of the lightning arrester, the residual pressure resistance under the action current of each column lightning arrester and the maximum change resistance value of each column lightning arrester.

[0048] According to the above steps, the fault of DC multi-column parallel lightning arrester can be quickly detected.

[0049] In the above technical solution, the lightning arresters of each column are connected in parallel to form a lightning arrester group (seven-column lightning arresters in this embodiment), and the line voltage divider is connected in parallel with the lightning arrester group.

[0050] In the above technical solution, the DC leakage current sensor 1 is connected to both ends of the action current counter of each column lightning arrester. The low impedance input circuit of the DC leakage current sensor 1 is in a normally open state. When the preset collection time is reached, the DC leakage current sensor 1 connects the low impedance input circuit through a relay controlled by the microcontroller of the DC leakage current sensor to collect the DC leakage current of each column lightning arrester. The low impedance input circuit is used to perform resistance sampling on the current signal and convert it into voltage. Its impedance is much smaller than the internal impedance of the lightning arrester counter, and most of the leakage current flows through the current signal sampling circuit. The above collection time is jointly determined by relevant standards or the FLASH capacity of the device. The default interval is 1 hour to start the collection once;

[0051] In the above technical solution, the DC leakage current sensor 1 is used to accurately measure the DC leakage current of the lightning arrester by utilizing the AC signal suppression and DC gain conditioning functions. The AC signal suppression solves the abnormal fluctuations in the measured value caused by the interference of the power frequency and high-order harmonic signals on the DC measurement; the DC gain conditioning automatically amplifies the microvolt voltage signal to the volt level, ensuring that the analog-to-digital circuit can distinguish microampere current changes.

[0052] In the above technical solution, the line voltage divider is configured at both ends of the DC line input and output in the DC field of the converter station. The line voltage sensor 2 is used to sample the voltage at both ends of the lightning arrester and the leakage current of the single-column lightning arrester to calculate the insulation resistance of the lightning arrester.

[0053] In the above technical solution, the coil of the action current sensor 3 is sleeved on the grounding down conductor under the arrester, and the action current signal is sampled by the Rogowski coil. When the DC line is closed or opened, due to the inductance and capacitance of the DC transmission line, an operation overvoltage will be generated on the line. This embodiment collects the dynamic resistance change of each column of the DC arrester when the operation overvoltage acts (the on-resistance of the arrester under the action of the action voltage).

[0054] In the above technical scheme, the DC line voltage collected by the line voltage sensor 2 and the action current of each column lightning arrester collected by the action current sensor 3 are continuously pre-sampled and triggered for sampling by the high-speed synchronous acquisition module 4 (in this embodiment, 7 action currents and 1 line voltage signal corresponding to 7 column lightning arresters), and the pre-sampled data are placed in a first-in-first-out queue (FIFO) of fixed length. When it is detected that the action current signal of any column lightning arrester meets the preset trigger condition (the set trigger threshold and the number of continuous trigger points), the high-speed synchronous acquisition module 4 is started to collect the continuous waveform of the action current signal with a duration of 70ms (the continuous waveform with a duration of 70ms is dynamically updated over time, and is always the waveform with a duration of the most recent 70ms); the high-speed synchronous acquisition module 4 sorts the continuous waveform of the action current signal with the DC line voltage collected by the line voltage sensor 2 and the action current of each column lightning arrester collected by the action current sensor 3 according to the sampling time, with a total of 80ms for each channel, to form an action waveform, such as Figure 3 As shown. This solution further stores a continuous signal waveform in FIFO for 10ms; when a current channel signal is detected to meet the trigger condition, the high-speed synchronous acquisition module is started to continuously acquire a signal waveform of 70ms; the device combines the pre-sampled data with the triggered sampled data to form an action waveform of 80ms continuous duration for group storage. Since the high-speed synchronous acquisition module 4 does not know when the line will have an overvoltage, the above-mentioned capture action current waveform is used to realize the device trigger control and latch the 80ms waveform.

[0055] In this embodiment, the insulation resistance of each column lightning arrester under the operating voltage is equivalent to the static resistance; and the trigger acquisition is to measure the dynamic resistance of the lightning arrester when it is turned on.

[0056] In the above technical solution, if Figure 2 The specific method for judging the insulation resistance status of each column arrester is as follows:

[0057] When R 运行 ≥R 参考 , and the insulation resistance R 运行 When the slope of the curve fluctuating with the time axis is ≈ the preset slope k, the insulation state of the column arrester is normal, and the column state is indicated in green, where R 运行 is the insulation resistance of a column arrester under the operating voltage, R 参考 The factory insulation resistance of the corresponding column arrester;

[0058] When R 运行 ≥R 参考 , and the insulation resistance R 运行 When the slope of the curve fluctuating with the time axis is less than the preset slope k, the insulation resistance of the column arrester is degraded, and the column status is indicated in yellow;

[0059] When R 运行 <R 参考 , and the insulation resistance R 运行 When the slope of the curve fluctuating with the time axis is less than the preset slope k, the insulation resistance of the arrester of the column is faulty, and the column status is indicated in red. The above scheme can be used to judge the insulation status of each column of the arrester online and identify the arrester fault.

[0060] In this embodiment, the insulation resistance data monitored during the operation of the arrester for a period of time is continuously counted, and the change law of the insulation resistance of each column arrester is analyzed. Affected by the environment, the insulation resistance of each column arrester fluctuates with the time axis, and the historical curve tends to change linearly. When the preset slope k is 1, the insulation resistance R 运行 The curve that fluctuates with the time axis is a straight line parallel to the horizontal axis. When the slope k is 1, the arrester insulation has not deteriorated, and the historical curve tends to a horizontal straight line. The decrease in insulation resistance indicates that the arrester insulation has slowly deteriorated; when the insulation resistance decreases by an order of magnitude, it needs to be replaced.

[0061] In the above technical solution, if Figure 4 As shown, the specific method for judging the dynamic resistance state of each column arrester by using the action resistance value of each column arrester, the average action resistance value of the arrester, the residual voltage resistance under the action current of each column arrester and the maximum change resistance value of each column arrester is:

[0062] When | R 动作 -R 平均 |<ΔR, and |R 动作 -R 残压 |<ΔR, the dynamic resistance state of the column arrester is normal, and the column state is indicated in green, where R 动作 is the operating resistance value of a column arrester, R 平均 is the average value of the arrester action resistance, R 残压 is the residual voltage resistance under the action current of the column arrester, ΔR is the maximum variable resistance value of the column arrester, which is the factory detection parameter of the arrester;

[0063] When | R 动作 -R 平均 |>ΔR, and |R 动作 -R 残压 When |<ΔR, the arrester of the column is degraded, and the column status is indicated in yellow;

[0064] When | R 动作 -R 平均 |>ΔR, and |R 动作 -R 残压|>ΔR, the arrester of the column is faulty, and the column status is indicated in red. The dynamic resistance under the arrester action voltage is basically linear. If it is too large, it means that there is an open circuit inside the arrester; if it is too small, it means that there is a short circuit inside the arrester. It is known from experiments that the internal resistance of the arrester does not change much under overvoltage. The above scheme locates the arrester fault by analyzing the change of the dynamic resistance value of the arrester under overvoltage.

[0065] In the above technical solution, the specific method for calculating the average value of the arrester action resistance according to the action resistance value of each column arrester is:

[0066] The fault location host 5 reads the data packet from the high-speed synchronous acquisition module 4, retrieves the action current waveform by the comparison method, and finds all the peak points of the action current waveform; obtains the voltage value corresponding to the current peak point by referring to the sampling point serial number, calculates the resistance value of each column lightning arrester under the action current according to the peak point voltage and current value, and averages the dynamic resistance value of the column when there are multiple current peak points, sorts the calculated action resistance values ​​of all lightning arresters from large to small, removes the largest and smallest resistance values, and averages the intermediate action resistance values ​​to obtain the average action resistance value of the lightning arrester.

[0067] In the above technical scheme, the method for calculating the factory insulation resistance of the lightning arrester is: using the lightning arrester DC reference voltage U1mA and the leakage current corresponding to 0.75U1mA provided by the lightning arrester manufacturer or maintenance company as parameters, and using 0.75U1mA / leakage current to calculate the factory insulation resistance of each column lightning arrester.

[0068] Example 2

[0069] A fault locating device for a DC multi-column parallel arrester in operation, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes:

[0070] The DC leakage current sensor 1 is used to collect the DC leakage current of each column arrester;

[0071] The line voltage sensor 2 is used to collect the DC line voltage of the line voltage divider connected in parallel with the arrester in the DC field of the converter station;

[0072] The operating current sensor 3 is used to collect the operating current of each column arrester;

[0073] The fault location host 5 is used to calculate the insulation resistance of each column lightning arrester under the operating voltage through the DC line voltage of the line voltage divider and the DC leakage current of each column lightning arrester, and to determine the state of the insulation resistance of each column lightning arrester by using the insulation resistance of each column lightning arrester under the operating voltage and the factory insulation resistance of the corresponding column lightning arrester;

[0074] The fault locating host 5 is used to calculate the action resistance value of the corresponding column lightning arrester through the action current of each column lightning arrester; calculate the average action resistance of the lightning arrester according to the action resistance value of each column lightning arrester; use the residual voltage at the peak point of the action current of each column lightning arrester to calculate the residual pressure resistance of each column lightning arrester under the action current; use the action resistance value of each column lightning arrester, the average action resistance of the lightning arrester, the residual pressure resistance of each column lightning arrester under the action current and the maximum change resistance value of each column lightning arrester to determine the state of the dynamic resistance of each column lightning arrester.

[0075] In embodiment 2, it also includes a high-speed synchronous acquisition module 4 for continuously pre-sampling and triggering sampling of the DC line voltage collected by the line voltage sensor 2 and the action current of each column lightning arrester collected by the action current sensor 3, and the pre-sampled data is placed in a first-in-first-out queue of a fixed length. When it is detected that the action current signal of any column lightning arrester meets the preset trigger condition, the high-speed synchronous acquisition module 4 is started to collect the continuous waveform of the action current signal of a preset time length; the high-speed synchronous acquisition module 4 sorts the continuous waveform of the action current signal with the DC line voltage collected by the line voltage sensor 2 and the action current of each column lightning arrester collected by the action current sensor 3 according to the sampling time to form an action waveform, such as Figure 3 shown.

[0076] In Example 2, the high-speed synchronous acquisition module 4 is usually in a pre-sampling state, and pre-samples 7 action currents and 1 line voltage at a sampling frequency of 50kHz. The data is put into FIFO. The FIFO buffer of each channel is 10ms long and can store 500 points of data. The acquisition frequency is 50kHz, which corresponds to 20us to collect 1 point, and 500 points correspond to 10ms.

[0077] The pre-sampled 10ms current data with 500 points is divided into 10 equal parts from No. 1 to No. 10 at 1ms intervals. The difference calculation is performed from the starting point to the end point on the 50-point data of the latter part (such as No. 2) and the 50-point data of the previous part (such as No. 1). The default difference trigger threshold is 10A, and the number of continuous trigger points is 10. In order to prevent false triggering, the pre-sampled data is latched only when it is detected that 10 consecutive data points exceed the threshold; when the trigger condition is met, the 500-point data in the current FIFO is latched. If the 10 consecutive data points are greater than 10A, the pre-sampled data is latched. The above pre-sampled data is continuously updated over time, and latching can ensure that the complete action waveform is stored.

[0078] When the trigger condition is met, the high-speed synchronous acquisition module 4 switches from the pre-sampling mode to the trigger acquisition mode; the high-speed synchronous acquisition module 4 continuously acquires 3500 points of data for a 70ms waveform, and combined with the pre-sampling data, each channel has a total of 4000 points of data; the action data is grouped in chronological order, and a maximum of 20 groups are stored, each group of 8 waveform data (7 action currents and 1 line voltage). After the trigger acquisition is completed, the high-speed synchronous acquisition module 4 returns to the pre-sampling mode.

[0079] The device uses a three-color integrated signal light to indicate the operating status of each column of the arrester group. There are 7 three-color indicator lights on the fault location host of this solution, which indicate the status of each of the 7 columns of arresters. Green represents normal, yellow represents degradation, and red represents failure. The arrangement order of the 7 indicator lights is consistent with the installation order of each column of the arrester. When a column of arrester fails, the color of the indicator light of the column turns red, realizing the location of the arrester fault. The device also has a remote data transmission function to realize the perception of the operating status of the DC parallel arrester group. The above functions ensure the safe operation of UHV DC equipment.
