Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of circuit breaker protection systems and safe power supply and distribution systems, and in particular to a power supply and distribution system based on an upper level circuit breaker actively indicating the action of a lower level circuit breaker. Background Art

[0002] In the power supply and distribution system, the coordination of the operating characteristics of two or more circuit breakers connected in series in the circuit should ensure that when a short circuit, overcurrent or leakage occurs within a given range, the circuit breaker designated to operate within this range will operate, while other circuit breakers will not operate. This is selective protection. Figure 1 As shown, there are usually two methods for selective protection of upper and lower circuit breakers:

[0003] The first is the action value selective coordination, and the second is the time selective coordination. The action value selective coordination means that the action value of the upper circuit breaker UD, such as short-circuit current, overcurrent, and leakage current, needs to be sufficiently larger than the action value of the lower circuit breaker DD of the branch line switch, so that the action value is below a certain value, and the protection characteristic curves of the upper and lower circuit breakers do not overlap, thereby achieving protection selectivity, that is, DD is disconnected and UD is not disconnected. The setting value of the residual current action protection device of the upper circuit breaker should be greater than 2 times the setting value of the lower residual current action protection device, and 3 times in engineering.

[0004] Time selective coordination means that when the protection action time of the upper circuit breaker is calculated with negative deviation (i.e. early action) and the protection action time of the lower circuit breaker is calculated with positive deviation (i.e. delayed action), the action time of the upper circuit breaker is still greater than the action time of the lower circuit breaker, which means that the requirements of selective coordination can be achieved. Usually, the action time of the upper and lower residual current protection devices should have a step difference of 100ms.

[0005] Figure 2 This is a common example of three-stage circuit breaker leakage protection coordination. It should be noted that the current standard term for leakage protection is residual current protection.

[0006] From the above overview, it can be seen that the current implementation of the coordination of the upper and lower circuit breakers is based on the active action of the circuit breakers at each level. However, in fact, due to the following reasons, the lower circuit breaker should act but does not act, and the upper circuit breaker acts and trips instead, or both the upper and lower circuit breakers act, resulting in an expansion of the scope of the accident. In extreme cases, the circuit breakers at all levels do not act.

[0007] 1. Improper coordination between the upper and lower circuit breakers, that is, the upper and lower circuit breakers do not adopt appropriate protection selectivity coordination.

[0008] 2. Problems with the circuit breaker itself. There is a certain probability of slow action, insufficient sensitivity, no action, and malfunction.

[0009] 3. Complexity of lines, short circuits and leakage.

[0010] For example: The current coordination mode of the upper and lower circuit breakers is that if a short circuit or leakage occurs somewhere within the protection range of the lower circuit breaker (taking leakage as an example below, the coordination principle of short circuit is the same), there are actually the following situations:

[0011] (1) The lower circuit breaker operates, but the upper circuit breaker does not operate

[0012] The leakage current is greater than or equal to the action value of the lower-level circuit breaker, but less than the action value of the upper-level circuit breaker. At this time, the lower-level circuit breaker trips and disconnects, while the upper-level circuit breaker does not operate. The leakage fault is limited to the protection range of the lower-level circuit breaker, achieving the preset ideal effect.

[0013] The leakage current is greater than or equal to the action value of the lower and upper circuit breakers (when leakage occurs, the leakage current rises quickly or the lower circuit breaker acts too slowly), but because the upper circuit breaker is set with a delayed action time, if the lower circuit breaker can trip and disconnect within the delayed action time of the upper circuit breaker, the upper circuit breaker does not act, and the preset effect can still be achieved.

[0014] (2) Both the lower and upper circuit breakers are actuated

[0015] The leakage current is greater than or equal to the action value of the lower and upper circuit breakers. The lower circuit breaker does not trip and disconnect within the delayed action time of the upper circuit breaker, while the upper circuit breaker trips and disconnects, causing the leakage accident to expand to the protection range of the upper circuit breaker, and failing to achieve the preset effect. Although the leakage fault is eliminated at this time, in addition to the expansion of the power-off range, it is very likely that the lower leakage has caused harm to people or equipment.

[0016] (3) Neither the lower nor the upper circuit breaker operates

[0017] The leakage current is greater than or equal to the action value of the lower and upper circuit breakers, but neither of them operates. At this time, the protection function of the upper circuit breaker is relied on to trip and disconnect the incoming line. This situation will not be described in detail. Summary of the invention

[0018] In order to overcome the lack and insufficiency of the selective protection of upper and lower level circuit breakers in the prior art, a power supply and distribution system based on the upper level circuit breaker actively indicating the action of the lower level circuit breaker and a control method for the power supply and distribution system are provided.

[0033] Preferably, the upper circuit breaker and the multiple lower circuit breakers can be intelligent circuit breakers or non-intelligent circuit breakers. In addition to the original fault detection, judgment, amplification and driving units, the circuit breaker is also equipped with the UD indication unit or the DD receiving unit to achieve double tripping drive when a fault occurs.

[0034] Preferably, the power supply and distribution system also includes a control center, which detects in real time whether a short circuit occurs and the scope of the short circuit, or whether a leakage occurs and the scope of the leakage; the control center is used to form a dual control function with the upper-level circuit breaker.

[0037] A second aspect of the present invention is to provide a control method for a power supply and distribution system based on an upper level circuit breaker actively indicating the action of a lower level circuit breaker, comprising:

[0038] S1, the upper circuit breaker and the lower circuit breaker both detect the short circuit or leakage current in real time, and determine that a short circuit or leakage occurs based on the magnitude of the short circuit or leakage current exceeding a threshold after the short circuit or leakage current detection;

[0039] S2, reporting the occurrence of a short circuit or leakage to the UD indicating unit of the upper circuit breaker and the DD receiving unit of the lower circuit breaker;

[0040] S3, detecting whether the upper circuit breaker trips, and if so, determining that the fault is eliminated; if not, instructing the lower circuit breaker to trip through the upper circuit breaker.

[0050] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0051] 1. When a short circuit or leakage occurs in the line, the upper-level circuit breaker takes the initiative to intervene and issue a command to disconnect the lower-level circuit breaker. The role of the upper-level circuit breaker is not just to wait, nor is it just to serve as a substitute for the action of the lower-level circuit breaker.

[0052] 2. The control center understands the occurrence and scope of short circuit and leakage, and can achieve dual control, that is, dual control by the control center and the upper circuit breaker, among which the control of the upper circuit breaker has priority.
