Description

Technical Field

[0002] A leakage fault refers to the current flowing from a normal circuit to the ground or other places through an unexpected path. The possible causes of a leakage fault include line insulation damage, equipment leakage current, ground fault, etc. When a leakage fault occurs in the line, it will cause current leakage, which may cause personal safety accidents and also cause the system to trip. Leakage protection is an effective measure to achieve safe and reliable operation of low-voltage distribution networks. At present, many ground fault leakage protectors on the market use software to synthesize leakage current algorithms for three-phase current acquisition. Although this design can also detect and output the leakage current signal when a ground fault occurs in the AC circuit and achieve the purpose of cutting off the AC circuit, it does not directly collect leakage current. Therefore, there is a certain error compared to directly collecting leakage current. The acquisition operation takes time, and real-time response is difficult to guarantee.

[0042] The collected leakage current analog signal is converted into a digital signal and then processed to obtain a leakage current measurement value;

[0043] The leakage current measurement value is compared with the set threshold value, and an alarm sign is generated according to the comparison result.

[0044] The low-voltage distribution network feeder monitoring device adopted in this embodiment is suitable for 0.4kV distribution network. It is installed in a distribution station room, a pole-mounted integrated distribution cabinet, a low-voltage pole-mounted circuit breaker or a low-voltage cable branch box. It consists of a low-voltage distribution network communication unit, a low-voltage distribution network power supply module and a low-voltage distribution network monitoring unit.
