However, the complex marine environment will cause mechanical damage to submarine cables. The submarine cables will generate heat during operation, and the damaged parts may crack due to aging. The seawater and armor provide multiple return paths for the current, causing grounding faults in the submarine cable system.
[0003] The laying environment of submarine cables is more complex and extreme than that of terrestrial cables. Submarine cables face difficulties in repair when faults occur. Specialized equipment and personnel are usually required to conduct long-term fault inspections and construction work. Large-scale and prolonged power outages can lead to serious economic losses. Therefore, research on fault location of submarine cables can timely detect submarine cable grounding faults and ensure safer and more stable offshore power transmission. Summary of the Invention

[0052] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples, but they are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0053] Example 1: A method for measuring the ground fault location of a submarine cable in a high-voltage AC submarine cable system, as shown in the attached Figure 1As shown, follow the steps below:
[0054] Step S1: As shown in the attached Figure 2 -Attached Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the high-voltage AC submarine cable system is a double-end grounded 110kV high-voltage AC submarine cable grounding system. Zero-sequence voltage transformers (VTA, VTB, VTC), power frequency voltage sensors (PTA, PTB, PTC), and power frequency current sensors (CTA, CTB, CTC) are pre-installed on the submarine cable sheath. The zero-sequence voltage on the submarine cable sheath before and after the high-voltage AC submarine cable system is directly grounded and short-circuited is extracted through the zero-sequence voltage transformer. The number 0 on the dial represents the normal state, the number 1 represents a single-phase grounding fault, and single-phase refers to any one of the three phases ABC being grounded. The number 4 represents a two-phase grounding fault, and two-phase refers to any two of the three phases ABC being grounded. The number 7 represents a three-phase grounding fault, and three-phase refers to the three phases ABC. The fault phase is determined by the temporary rise of the zero-sequence voltage before and after the fault. The calculation is shown in the following formula:
[0055]
[0056] Where, is the voltage swell, is the zero-sequence voltage before the fault, is the zero-sequence voltage during the fault period;
[0057] The power frequency voltage sensor and the power frequency current sensor collect the fault traveling wave signal at the moment of the fault phase fault. The fault traveling wave signal is analyzed by wavelet decomposition and wavelet transform methods to obtain fault location feature quantities in the time domain and frequency domain. The fault location feature quantities include the transient voltage and transient current after the fault occurs, the Lipschitz index of the fault traveling wave signal, the mutation time of the first three modulus maxima of the fault traveling wave signal, and the fault signal parameters.
[0058] The Lipschitz index of the fault traveling wave signal is obtained by wavelet transform method. The relationship between the attenuation characteristics of the wavelet transform coefficient of the fault traveling wave signal and the Lipschitz index is shown in the following formula:
[0059] |WT x (t,s)|≤A s S a ;
[0060] Where W is the maximum value of the wavelet coefficient modulus, T x (t,s) is the signal T at time t transformed to scale s x , t is time, S is the wavelet transform scale, a is the expansion factor, As is the Li index, and Li index A S The calculation is as follows:
[0061]
[0062] Among them, when calculating the Li index, n in the formula approaches infinity, f(x k ,α) is the system function, x k is the k-th iteration value;
[0063] The mutation time of the first three modulus maxima of the fault traveling wave signal is obtained by wavelet transform and is calculated as follows:
[0064]
[0065] Where t1 is the arrival time of the fault wave head, t2 is the arrival time of the reflected wave at the fault point, t3 is the arrival time of the reflected wave at the other end, v is the wave speed, L f is the fault distance, and L is the line length.
[0066] The fault signal parameters include the modulus maximum, the stretch factor, and the mother wavelet of the fault traveling wave signal, which are obtained by multi-scale decomposition of the fault traveling wave signal using the wavelet decomposition method. For the continuous fault traveling wave signal f(t), the calculation is shown in the following formula:
[0067]
[0068] Where f(t) is the fault traveling wave signal to be analyzed, is the mother wavelet function, a is the scaling factor, b is the translation parameter, is the wavelet coefficient.
[0069] Step S2: Use the fault distance feature quantity to construct a distance feature vector group containing spatial domain functions and time domain functions. Use the distance feature vector group as sample data to divide it into training samples and test samples. The training samples and test samples are normalized so that the input sample values are mapped within the range of [0, 1]. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0070]
[0071] Among them, x i is the original sample data, x min and x min are the minimum and maximum values of the original samples to be normalized in the wavelet neural network, y i and the input sample value after normalization of the wavelet neural network, i (i=1,2,…) is the number of samples;
[0072] Step S3: As shown in the attached Figure 5As shown, a wavelet neural network is constructed (a wavelet neural network is an algorithm that combines wavelet analysis with artificial neural networks, and uses the two to process nonlinear, non-stationary signals or complex data. It includes an input layer, a hidden layer, and an output layer. The input layer is used to receive original data, and the hidden layer has multiple nodes that are analyzed and output by wavelet basis functions. The output layer linearly combines the results of the hidden layer and outputs predicted values or classification results). The number of nodes in the input layer, hidden layer, and output layer of the wavelet neural network are determined to be n, i, and mm respectively according to the sample capacity.
[0073] Step S4: Input the training samples and test samples processed in step S2 into the wavelet neural network for training. During the training process, the wavelet neural network performs forward propagation and backward propagation until the training samples meet the end training conditions, and the training is terminated to obtain a fitting curve of the relationship between the fault feature quantity and the fault distance;
[0074] During the forward propagation of the wavelet neural network, the sample data is transferred from the input layer to the hidden layer. At this time, the data of the jth node in the hidden layer is calculated by the following formula:
[0075]
[0076] Where x k is the kth sample data of the input sample data, ω kj is the link weight of the hidden layer node; the calculated result S j The wavelet basis is scaled and changed at the hidden layer nodes. The change calculation formula is as follows:
[0077]
[0078] h j =φ[(S j -b j ) / a j ];
[0079] Where φ(x) is the wavelet base, b j is the smoothing factor of the basis function, a j is the scaling factor of the basis function, h j is the output data of the jth node in the hidden layer; h j Entering the output layer, after calculation, it is output from the tth node of the output layer. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0080]
[0081] Where, ω jt is the link weight of the output layer, is the activation function.
[0082] The back propagation process is to modify the wavelet neural network parameters and update the smoothing factor, scaling factor, and two link weights of the hidden layer and the output layer of the wavelet basis function. The modification formula is shown below:
[0083]
[0084] Where E is the error function, μ is the learning rate, ω is t is the corrected weight, ω t-1 is the weight of the previous item.
[0085] The condition that the training sample meets the end of training refers to setting the output error when setting the wavelet neural network parameters. When the output error value of the wavelet neural network is less than the preset value during the training process, the training mark is completed, the training completed data is output, and the fitting curve of the relationship between the fault feature quantity and the fault distance is obtained.
[0086] Step S5: Determine the distance between the fault location of the high-voltage AC submarine cable system and the onshore sensors at both ends by fitting a curve of the relationship between the fault characteristic and the fault distance.
[0087] To better enable relevant personnel in this technical field to fully understand and implement the present invention, the following is a specific implementation case applied to submarine cable ground fault distance measurement in a high-voltage AC submarine cable system. Combining the technical solution in the specification with actual scenarios, the application process and effects of the present invention are demonstrated in detail: Zero-sequence voltage transformers (VTA, VTB, VTC) are respectively installed on the sheaths at both ends of the submarine cable (near the landing section) to collect the zero-sequence voltage of the three-phase sheaths A, B, and C. When the zero-sequence voltage swell of a phase is greater than a threshold, the phase is determined to be a fault phase; the power frequency voltage sensor and the power frequency current sensor respectively collect the voltage and current traveling waves of the fault phase, and the sampling frequency is set to 10MHz;
[0088] The transient signal peak within 0-10ms after the fault is intercepted, the fault signal singularity is calculated through wavelet transform, the wavelet coefficient modulus maximum W at the specified scale S is taken, and the modulus maximum attenuation rate is further obtained. The Lipschitz index is extracted using the formula to obtain the degree of fault signal mutation; the arrival time of the first three wave heads of the fault traveling wave is extracted; the traveling wave signal is decomposed into multiple layers using wavelet decomposition to extract the modulus maximum, expansion factor and mother wavelet phase information at each scale.
[0089] The characteristic quantities of the traveling wave signal of the same fault are integrated into a multi-dimensional feature vector, which is divided into training samples and test samples in a ratio of 8:2 and then normalized using minimum and maximum normalization.
[0090] The number of nodes in the input layer, hidden layer, and output layer of the wavelet neural network are set to n = 10 (corresponding to the dimension of the feature vector), i = 7 (the activation function uses the Morlet wavelet basis function), and m = 1 (the output fault distance, and the activation function is a linear function). The hidden layer weights are randomly initialized to [-0.1, 0.1], and the initial values of the wavelet basis smoothing factor and the scaling factor are both set to 1.
[0091] The wavelet neural network calculates the hidden layer output through forward propagation. The backward propagation sets the learning rate μ = 0.01 and the number of iterations to 500. The smoothing factor, scaling factor, and two link weights of the wavelet basis function are updated. When the test sample error is less than 10 meters or the number of iterations reaches the upper limit, the training is stopped and a fitting curve of the relationship between the fault feature quantity and the fault distance is generated.
[0092] A phase A grounding fault was set 5 km away from end A of the submarine cable. The collected feature vectors were normalized and input into the wavelet neural network, outputting fault = 4.98 km, with an error of 0.4%.
