Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field related to microgrids, and in particular to a microgrid relay protection method. Background Art

[0002] A microgrid is a small power grid composed of distributed power generation equipment, energy storage equipment and loads, which has strong independence and autonomy. Since the power supply and load in the microgrid are distributed, the relay protection must take into account its particularity. The main goal of microgrid relay protection is to correctly distinguish internal and external faults, disturbances or abnormal operation of the microgrid, so as to quickly isolate the fault, reduce the scope of the fault, and send signals to ensure the safe operation of the microgrid and its equipment; The magnitude and direction of short-circuit current in existing microgrids change with the access of distributed power sources, which affects the coordination relationship of traditional distribution network protection. In particular, there is a large difference in fault current between the well-grid and off-grid operation modes, which brings challenges to relay protection; In order to solve the above-mentioned defects, a microgrid relay protection method and device with publication number CN110224382B is proposed. It sets a genetic algorithm real-time prediction model, predicts the current situation of the next cycle in real time based on the historical current data in the microgrid, and then compares the predicted value with the actual sampled data in the microgrid to determine whether there is a short-circuit fault in the microgrid. First, through the real-time prediction of the genetic algorithm, it solves the problem that the traditional overcurrent protection relies solely on the setting of fixed values ​​to determine whether there is a short-circuit fault, which often leads to protection failure, and greatly improves the sensitivity and timeliness of the relay protection; secondly, it can meet the comprehensive protection needs of microgrids of 400V and below when operating in an isolated network; thirdly, it can adapt to the switching of the microgrid between the two working states of the isolated network and the grid-connected network; finally, it can identify various faults in the microgrid and make correct responses to ensure the safe and stable operation of the microgrid; In the actual use of the above-mentioned device, although the detection accuracy can be improved by setting up a genetic algorithm real-time prediction model, its genetic algorithm real-time prediction model requires a large number of training samples to learn the fault characteristics and protection action rules of the power grid. As the scale of the power grid expands, more and newer training samples are needed, which increases the difficulty of data collection and processing.

[0003] So we proposed a microgrid relay protection method to solve the problems raised above. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a microgrid relay protection method to solve the problem proposed in the above background technology that the real-time prediction model of genetic algorithms on the current market requires a large number of training samples to learn the fault characteristics and protection action laws of the power grid. As the scale of the power grid expands, more and newer training samples are needed, which increases the difficulty of data collection and processing.

[0010] Preferably, the microgrid relay protection device is electrically isolated from the microgrid to prevent short circuit or electric shock accidents caused by improper electrical connection.

[0011] Preferably, the method comprises the following steps: A1: Analyze the microgrid structure, understand the configuration and connection methods of distributed power sources (such as solar energy, wind energy), energy storage devices, energy conversion devices, loads, and monitoring and protection devices in the microgrid, and evaluate the voltage and current variation patterns of the microgrid under normal operation and fault conditions; A2: According to the structure and operation characteristics of the microgrid, determine the required protection type (overcurrent protection, differential protection, directional protection, and determine the coverage, sensitivity and speed requirements of the protection.

[0012] Preferably, the method comprises the following steps: Q1: Set voltage protection criteria. Set voltage protection criteria at the microgrid bus level to detect changes in bus voltage. When the bus voltage changes meet the protection criteria (the voltage drop exceeds the set threshold), an alarm signal is sent to the control system, and a fault line is determined. An alarm signal is also sent to the microgrid monitoring system or operator to detect and handle the fault in a timely manner. Q2: Current transformers, voltage transformers and measuring relays collect current and voltage electrical quantity data in the microgrid in real time.

[0013] Preferably, the method comprises the following steps: S1: Different measures are taken for different types of faults. For faults in double-ended power supply line sections, current differential protection or impedance-type directional pilot protection is used. Current differential protection determines the fault location by comparing the current difference at both ends of the line. Impedance-type directional pilot protection identifies faults in the positive direction of the line by setting impedance measurement elements at both ends of the line and transmits fault signals through the power line carrier channel. For faults in load branches with only one side connected to the power supply, overcurrent information is used to meet protection requirements. S2: According to the collected electrical quantity information and the set protection criteria, set a reasonable tripping logic. When the tripping conditions are met, the relay protection device should act quickly to cut off the faulty line or equipment to prevent the fault from expanding; S3: After the fault is removed, take appropriate measures to restore the normal operation of the system according to the operation status and needs of the microgrid.
