Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power system fault detection technology, specifically a method for rapid location of high-resistivity faults in distribution networks based on directional frequency scanning. Background Technology
[0002] High-resistance faults are among the most common and difficult-to-detect fault types in distribution networks. These faults typically manifest as very weak current signals, often only on the order of a few amperes, and are easily masked by various noise signals in the distribution network. Therefore, accurately extracting the characteristics of high-resistance faults and quickly locating the fault location has become a major challenge in the operation and maintenance of distribution networks.
[0003] Traditional methods typically rely on measurement data from current and voltage transformers to identify and locate fault points through centralized calculations. However, these methods are susceptible to noise, leading to unstable fault feature extraction. Furthermore, the large volume of measurement data required for centralized processing at a main station not only increases data transmission overhead but also introduces significant latency, making it difficult to meet the requirements for rapid fault response. Additionally, installing expensive voltage transformers at all measurement points results in substantial hardware investment and high maintenance costs. Summary of the Invention

Therefore, the smaller a(i) is, the closer the class is; the calculation method of b(i) is similar to that of a(i), but it needs to traverse other clusters to obtain multiple values {b1(i), b2(i), b3(i), …, b m (i)} and select the smallest value as the final result;

Each node independently completes data feature extraction and calculation tasks, utilizing distributed parallel computing to accelerate processing and effectively reduce the computational burden on the main station. This design improves the real-time performance, reliability, and efficiency of the overall system, making it particularly suitable for application scenarios with strict requirements for fault response time.

[0083] Specifically, the overall method flow is described, including core steps such as signal acquisition, fault time determination, discrete Fourier transform and feature extraction, feature vector construction and projection, and feature fusion and cluster analysis. Through directional frequency scanning and extraction of the first intrinsic mode function (IMF1), this method has a high fault feature extraction capability in noisy environments and can reliably capture weak high-resistance fault signal features. The edge computing approach distributes data processing tasks to various sampling points, greatly reducing data transmission volume and the computational burden on the central station, and significantly improving response speed. It eliminates the need to install expensive voltage transformers at all monitoring points, relying on the calculation of virtual reference directions to achieve low-cost and high-precision fault location. The use of multi-timescale analysis and fuzzy clustering technology can effectively improve the robustness of fault detection and location, avoiding misjudgments caused by the randomness of data at a single time point.

[0141]
[0142] where j represents other sample points in the same class as sample i, and distance represents the distance between i and j. Therefore, the smaller a(i) is, the closer the class is; the calculation method of b(i) is similar to a(i), but it needs to traverse other clusters to obtain multiple values {b1(i), b2(i), b3(i), …, b m (i)} and select the smallest value as the final result;
