With the improvement of the living standards of residential users, the power consumption load of the power grid has gradually increased, and power consumption problems have gradually increased. In reality, the number of low-voltage residential users is huge and widely distributed. Affected by the complex installation conditions and many restrictions of the distribution room transformers, the branch lines of the circuit are messy, resulting in the inability to determine the topology structure of the substation area. When problems such as safety failures and abnormal line losses occur, a large amount of human resources are required to conduct inspections and positioning, with low efficiency and high operation and maintenance costs. These typical problems have added layers of resistance to the safety, management, and maintenance of intelligent power grids.

[0003] The topology relationship of the low-voltage substation area is a key part of the construction of high-quality substations and an indispensable part of the application of the intelligent power grid system. How to obtain the accurate topology relationship of the low-voltage substation area has become an important direction for the construction of intelligent power grids. Summary of the Invention

Its CPU chip has a main frequency greater than 1G and is a multi-core processor, with fast operating speed, large data storage space, and real-time control of functional modules such as the AC sampling module, the carrier module, and the branch monitoring module. The AC sampling module is the AC sampling and metering unit of the terminal, sampling the instantaneous values of voltage and current multiple times, processing the data according to a certain algorithm, and statistically analyzing each data quantity. The 485 module is a functional circuit module. The terminal can communicate with the electric energy meter in a downlink manner through 485 communication. The module uses opto-isolation to ensure the safety and reliability of the system. The wireless public network module is a functional circuit module. The terminal can communicate with the master station in an uplink manner through 4G communication, and this module supports logging in to dual master stations, with stable data transmission and high reliability. The carrier module is a local communication module, using an independently designed broadband carrier chip, with the power line as the carrier signal transmission medium, supporting functions such as substation area or phase differentiation, information active reporting, and automatic networking. The clock module selects a high-precision clock chip to time the main system, with high timing accuracy and small error. The display module selects a dot matrix liquid crystal, with a wide operating temperature range, and can display normally at both high and low temperatures, with good stability. The power supply and backup power module designs a high-power AC-DC power supply to supply power to the main system, supporting AC power failure detection and backup power function.

The remote signaling module provides multiple monitoring channels for switch status quantities, real-time monitoring of the opening and closing status of the line, and fast recognition and reporting speed. The branch monitoring module can be used in conjunction with the Mengxi intelligent terminal to achieve the function of substation area topology recognition. This module supports up to 5 outgoing line branches at most, collects characteristic small current signals through an external current transformer, and forms data packets after a certain algorithm operation and stores them in the terminal. The control module has 2-way relay control, and the terminal can control tripping and closing in a timely manner according to trigger conditions.

[0027] The cross-sampling module is connected to the main control module through the UART interface, the 485 module is connected to the main control module through the USB interface, the wireless public network module is connected to the main control module through the USB interface, the carrier module is connected to the main control module through the USB interface, the clock module is connected to the main control module through the IIC interface, the display module is connected to the main control module through the SPI interface, the power supply and backup power module is connected to the main control module through a connecting device, the Bluetooth module is connected to the main control module through the UART interface, the Ethernet module is connected to the main control module through the USB interface, the remote signaling module is connected to the main control module through the USB interface, the branch monitoring module is connected to the main control interface through the USB interface, and the control module is connected to the main control module through the USB interface.

[0028] As Figure 2 shown, a Mengxi intelligent terminal device equipped with a broadband carrier module and a branch monitoring module is installed at the outgoing line of the transformer busbar.

The identification device is equipped with a module related to carrier communication, and a single-pass meter is hung under the identification device.

[0029] The topology identification process of the Mengxi intelligent terminal includes feature signal input, feature signal identification, and the main station sorting out the topology relationship. For the feature signal input, after the accurate time calibration of the substation area is completed, the terminal sets the feature signal sending time for all devices (including identification devices and meters) in the substation area file in sequence through the power line carrier communication method of the carrier module according to the start time set by the main station. For the feature signal identification, after the meter receives the carrier signal from the terminal or the identification device, it will send a feature small current signal according to the preset time. This feature small current signal finally converges into the voltage busbar monitored by the Mengxi intelligent terminal through the line branch. The branch monitoring module on the terminal collects this feature small current signal through the external current transformer according to a certain transformation ratio. The Mengxi intelligent terminal can obtain the required information through demodulation and algorithm operations on the acquired signal in the module, and form a data packet related to the topology information, which is stored in the terminal. For the main station sorting out the topology relationship, that is, after the terminal obtains the topology information, it reports it to the main station or is called by the main station for measurement. The main station can then sort out a clear topology identification relationship. When the power supply line relationship changes, the main station can prompt the change of line ownership, and after the user confirms, the topology identification file can be selectively updated. This terminal applies modern digital communication technology, embedded technology, computer software and hardware technology, etc. to realize power metering monitoring and advanced calculation. Especially, it can be used for substation area topology identification, with fast data processing and high cost performance, and can well meet the application requirements of the power grid.
