Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of current transformers, and particularly relates to a high-precision current transformer based on active compensation. Background Art
[0002] A current transformer is an instrument that measures a large current on the primary side by converting it into a small current on the secondary side based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. A current transformer consists of a closed iron core and windings. Its primary winding has very few turns and is connected in series in the circuit where the current to be measured passes through. Therefore, it often has the full current of the circuit flowing through it. The secondary winding has more turns and is connected in series in the measuring instrument and the protection circuit. When the current transformer is working, its secondary circuit is always closed. Therefore, the impedance of the series-connected coil in the measuring instrument and the protection circuit is very small, and the working state of the current transformer is close to a short circuit. A current transformer converts a large current on the primary side into a small current on the secondary side for measurement, and the secondary side cannot be open-circuited. The existing scheme of a dual-core active compensation current transformer can make the transformer reach a very high accuracy and stability. However, there are still various problems with various current transformers on the market.
[0003] For example, a cascaded secondary small-current high-precision current transformer disclosed in the authorized publication number CN117116637A, although it realizes winding an active signal compensation winding outside the main iron core, winding an active electromotive force compensation winding outside the auxiliary iron core, and jointly winding the secondary winding on the main iron core and the auxiliary iron core; the output wire led out from the upper-level secondary winding passes through the lower-level current transformer to be used as the primary winding of the lower level, so that the upper and lower current transformers are cascaded, and the active signal compensation winding and the active electromotive force compensation winding are respectively connected to the active compensation module, and two sources are used to perform dynamic feedback zero-flux compensation on the two-level current transformers respectively, so that the error of the cascaded current ratio standard is less than 5×10 -6 , but it does not solve the problem that the existing current transformer needs to shift gears on the primary side (when there are different input currents), so it cannot meet the requirements of on-line detection by the power department. There are also problems such as the difficulty in calibration due to the heavy load in the small-current range when the standard watt-hour meter is sent for inspection, and the additional error brought to the device under test when calibrating the small current as a standard watt-hour meter. For this reason, we propose a high-precision current transformer based on active compensation. Summary of the Invention

The output current gear shift is used to achieve automatic gear shifting and realize on-line monitoring of the current in the power system. Under the action of the secondary current output and the load, the iron core coil makes the secondary of the transformer switch to a small number of turns in the case of small current, and at this time the load of the transformer is very light, using the small current of the standard watt-hour meter for inspection and calibrating the small current. A precision reference power supply is electrically connected to the differential amplifier, the voltage amplifier, and the power amplifier. The precision reference power supply, differential amplifier, voltage amplifier, and power amplifier form an electronic compensation circuit. The integrating amplifier, differential amplifier, voltage amplifier, and power amplifier form an integral feedback circuit. The operational amplifier of the electronic compensation circuit uses the reference power supply and the integral feedback circuit to eliminate the beat frequency interference of the power frequency power supply. And through the cooperation of the output current gear shift and the standard watt-hour meter for automatic grading, the zero-flux signal detected by the double-core differential is amplified by current and voltage, and the output current is given to the secondary of the current transformer. The secondary current of the current transformer is completely provided by an external power supply, and the secondary load of the transformer is approximately zero, making the transformer have high precision.
