Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of electric power technology, and in particular to a method for improving the accuracy of locating traveling wave faults in a distribution network. Background Art

[0002] The modern power distribution system is a complex network topology. A complete power distribution network is often responsible for the transmission of power in multiple regions. When a permanent fault occurs in a distribution line, if it is not handled in time, it will impact the associated system, causing large-scale power outages and affecting normal social production and life. Therefore, it is of great significance to accurately and reliably locate the faults of the distribution network with complex topology, quickly troubleshoot and eliminate the faults, and restore the normal operation of the line to ensure the safe and stable operation of the power grid.

[0003] Traveling wave positioning technology plays an important role in distribution network fault detection due to its high precision and fast response. By capturing and analyzing the traveling wave signal generated when a fault occurs, the fault point can be accurately located in a short time, significantly improving the speed of fault handling. However, the fault location method based on two-end traveling waves is susceptible to various errors, including the uncertainty of the traveling wave velocity caused by the influence of line electrical parameters, the inaccurate estimated line length, the wavefront arrival time error caused by the low amplitude of the traveling wave, and the Beidou time synchronization error. There is still much room for improvement in its positioning accuracy.

[0004] Specifically, the current fault location technology still has the following defects: (1) The establishment of the traveling wave front time and wave speed is still mainly based on manual calibration and empirical values, which has large errors; (2) The various parameters of the current two-end traveling wave location method do not fully consider the error impact, and do not consider the sampling frequency information, so there is much room for improvement in accuracy. Summary of the invention
