Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of distribution network fault detection, and in particular to a method, system and medium for locating a single-phase grounding fault section based on the ratio of the fault zero-sequence current phase angle difference. Background Art
[0002] As a critical national public infrastructure, the distribution network plays a vital role in ensuring power supply, supporting economic and social development, and improving people's livelihoods. The distribution network's topology and operating environment are complex, and the incidence of single-phase grounding faults is high. According to incomplete statistics from the State Grid, single-phase grounding faults account for over 80% of all faults. High-resistance grounding faults have weak fault characteristics, with fault currents typically only a few amperes or even less than one ampere. The complex environment of the lines, combined with the weak electrical characteristics of high-resistance grounding faults, makes it difficult to locate the section of the system when a high-resistance grounding fault occurs. This poses a serious threat to the distribution network and the safety of people's lives and property, with significant social impact. Therefore, research on high-resistance grounding fault section location technology in distribution networks is of great significance.
[0003] Current fault location techniques can be broadly categorized into two types. The first utilizes steady-state or transient measurements to identify characteristic differences for fault location. However, these methods are ineffective in detecting high-resistance ground faults and are affected by the system's ground admittance parameters. The second method involves signal injection, most notably the "S" injection method, which is significantly affected by the system's ground admittance parameters. Summary of the Invention

[0040] Example 1
[0041] Figure 1 is a single-phase grounding fault model for a 10kV distribution network flexible grounding system, where: It is a three-phase symmetrical power supply, Z0 is the arc suppression coil inductance, Rf is the fault resistance, and Y0 is the relative ground parameter. is the current signal injected into the system through the active inverter device, is the neutral point voltage.
[0042] The flexible grounding device consists of a DC power supply, a PWM inverter and an isolation transformer. S is the control switch. The proposed new topology is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, This is the current injected into the system by the flexible grounding device.
[0043] The impedance of the single-phase grounding fault model is decomposed according to the section. The distribution network line is divided into n sections. The starting point of each section is used as the 1st to nth sampling points. Each sampling point is set with an automatic terminal for current detection. The zero-sequence equivalent model of the flexible grounding distribution network fault is obtained as follows: Figure 2 As shown, where Z0 is the arc suppression coil inductance, is the current injected into the flexible device, ① represents the sampling point, Ye is the relative ground parameter between the sampling points, Gf is the fault conductance, It is the virtual power supply at the fault point. If phase C fails, , is the neutral point voltage. Assume that the fault occurs between the tth sampling point and the t+1th sampling point.
[0044] The method for locating a single-phase grounding fault section based on the ratio of the fault zero-sequence current phase angle difference in this embodiment includes:
[0045] Step 1: When a permanent single-phase ground fault occurs in the distribution network, the distribution network automation terminal detects and extracts the zero-sequence current of each section sampling point of the line. At this time (before the neutral point is injected with the power frequency current signal), the zero-sequence current value detected is expressed as , .
[0046] Step 2: Use a flexible grounding device to inject a power frequency current signal into the neutral point, and then use the distribution network automation terminal to detect and extract the zero-sequence current of the sampling points in each section of the line.
[0047] Sampling points of the segment At this time (after the power frequency current signal is injected into the neutral point), the zero-sequence current value detected is expressed as , .
[0048] Step 3: Calculate the zero-sequence current at each sampling point based on the zero-sequence current detected by the distribution network automation terminal before and after the power frequency current signal is injected into the neutral point. The phase angle difference formed by the relative change of zero sequence current , then calculate the phase angle difference between the sampling points at both ends of the section, and determine the section corresponding to the maximum value of all phase angle differences as the ground fault section.
[0049] Among them, the sampling points The phase angle formed by the ratio of the relative change of the zero-sequence current to the zero-sequence current before the power frequency current signal is injected , its calculation expression is:
[0050]
[0051] Where, Sampling points for the segment The zero-sequence current difference before and after the power frequency current signal is injected into the neutral point, Sampling points for the segment The zero-sequence current value before the power frequency current signal is injected into the neutral point, Indicates phase angle operation.
[0052] The phase angle difference between the sampling points at both ends of the i-th segment is calculated as:
[0053]
[0054] Where, Represents the phase angle difference between the sampling points at both ends of the i-th segment.
[0055] Final criterion Find the sampling point j with the largest m value, and the segment between sampling point j and sampling point j+1 (i.e. segment j) is the fault segment.
[0056] The following provides an explanation of the principle of the method for locating a single-phase grounding fault section in this embodiment:
[0057] 1. Variation trends of zero-sequence currents before and after the flexible device injects the signal.
[0058] Before injecting the power frequency signal, the system neutral point voltage can be known according to the node voltage method for:
[0059] (1)
[0060] It can be seen from formula (1) that the system neutral point voltage is related to the transition resistance and system admittance. Figure 2 It can be obtained that the zero-sequence current measured at the line head end and each sampling point of the line should theoretically be:
[0061] (2)
[0062] After the power frequency signal is injected, the neutral point voltage of the system will change. According to the circuit superposition theorem, when the flexible device acts alone, the neutral point voltage of the system will change. for:
[0063] (3)
[0064] When the system acts alone, the system neutral point voltage It is the neutral point voltage before the signal is injected.
[0065] (4)
[0066] According to the superposition theorem, when a single-phase ground fault occurs in the distribution network, the neutral point voltage of the distribution network after the active inverter injection device injects power frequency current is obtained as follows:
[0067] (5)
[0068] From formula (5), it can be seen that after the power frequency current signal is injected, the neutral point voltage is not only related to the transition resistance and the system's admittance to ground, but also to the amplitude and phase of the injected current. The larger the amplitude of the injected power frequency current signal, the greater the change in the system neutral point voltage and the change in the zero-sequence current in each section. When the transition resistance is constant, and the injected current amplitude does not affect the system operation, the injected power frequency current is adjusted. The phase angle of the zero-sequence current before and after the injection signal can be amplified.
[0069] After the power frequency signal is injected, the zero-sequence current measured at each sampling point of the fault line should be:
[0070] (6)
[0071] As the equation shows, after the power frequency current is injected, the zero-sequence current in the fault section changes with the neutral point voltage. Therefore, it will differ from the zero-sequence current before the power frequency signal was injected. By injecting current into the neutral point, flexible and proactive intervention can be achieved in the zero-sequence voltage of the distribution network and the zero-sequence current of the feeder.
[0072] By comparing and analyzing the zero-sequence currents in each section before and after the current signal is injected, it can be seen that the flexible grounding device regulates the zero-sequence currents in each section of the system by injecting controllable power frequency current. In addition, under the premise that the injected current amplitude does not affect the system operation, the phase angle of the injected current can be adjusted to amplify the phase angle difference of the zero-sequence current before and after the injection signal.
[0073] 2. Fault section location criterion based on the change of zero-sequence current before and after signal injection.
[0074] The fault section is determined by the phase angle of the ratio of the zero-sequence current before and after the power frequency signal is injected. The difference is calculated in turn to construct the positioning criterion. The change in zero-sequence current at the head end of the line and each sampling point of the line is:
[0075] (7)
[0076] Define the phase angle of the ratio of the zero-sequence current difference before and after the power frequency signal is injected to the zero-sequence current before the signal is injected as K, then there is a fault upstream:
[0077] (8)
[0078] Downstream of the fault:
[0079] (9)
[0080] Calculate the difference K between the zero-sequence current sampling points of the fault line, defined as k, and we have:
[0081] (10)
[0082] Then the m value corresponding to the sampling point before the fault section is calculated as:
[0083] (11)
[0084] The m value corresponding to the calculation of the first sampling point in the fault section is:
[0085] (12)
[0086] The m value corresponding to the sampling point after the fault section and the sampling point after the fault section is calculated as follows:
[0087] (13)
[0088] The zero sequence current of the sampled m value before the fault section differs by only one , the calculated m value is close to zero, and its value is also related to the number of sampling points. The more sampling points, the The smaller it is, the closer the m value is to zero.
[0089] Therefore, the positioning method used in the present invention is judged as follows:
[0090]
[0091] Find the sampling point j with the largest m value, and the fault section is located between the jth sampling point and the j+1th sampling point.
[0092] The embodiment of the present application provides a single-phase grounding fault section location system, comprising: a central processor and a plurality of automation terminals arranged on each section of a distribution network line, each automation terminal being in communication with the central processor;
[0093] The automation terminal is used to detect the zero-sequence current of the sampling points in each section of the line and send the detected zero-sequence current to the central processor;
[0094] The central processor is used to receive the zero-sequence current of each sampling point from each automation terminal, and calculate the zero-sequence current of each sampling point according to the zero-sequence current detected and extracted before and after the power frequency current signal is injected into the neutral point by the distribution network automation terminal. The phase angle formed by the ratio of the relative change of the zero-sequence current to the zero-sequence current before the power frequency current signal is injected , then calculate the phase angle difference between the sampling points at both ends of the section, and determine the section corresponding to the maximum value of all phase angle differences as the ground fault section.
