Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of medium-voltage distribution network technology, and relates to the handling of single-phase grounding faults in medium-voltage distribution networks, and particularly to a method and system for locating single-phase grounding fault sections in medium-voltage distribution networks based on weak communication. Background Technology
[0002] my country's power distribution network is mainly a low-current grounding system, among which single-phase grounding faults are the most common type of fault, accounting for more than 80% of all faults. When a single-phase grounding fault occurs in the system, the fault current can only form a path through the system's ground capacitance, resulting in a weak fault characteristic signal amplitude. Coupled with the background harmonic interference generated by nonlinear components such as distributed power sources and power electronic converters connected on a large scale in the power distribution network, the fault characteristics are becoming increasingly difficult to identify.
[0003] Traditional methods rely on single distribution automation terminal data or single feature analysis, lacking interactive verification of fault characteristics across multiple nodes. The polarities of the upstream and downstream zero-sequence currents at the grounding point are opposite and highly similar, but when the polarity of the zero-sequence current transformer is unclear, the correlation coefficient method has a blind spot in fault location and insufficient fault tolerance.
[0004] Traditional handling methods such as manual testing take 1-2 hours and are prone to causing continuous arcing at the fault point, leading to phase-to-phase short circuits and expanding the power outage area. According to statistics, about 35% of phase-to-phase faults are caused by untreated single-phase grounding faults, which seriously threaten personal safety and power supply reliability.

[0075] Δi x (t ) = i x ( t ) - i x ( t - N × ΔT )

[0088] Further preferably, the band-pass filter characteristic frequency band selection calculation method is as follows:
[0089] For a neutral non-grounded system, the capacitive frequency band range is 0 f c , i.e. between 0 and the first series resonance frequency of the zero-sequence network; for an arc suppression coil grounded system, the capacitive frequency band range is f arc ~ f c , wherein f arc is the zero-sequence line frequency band where the arc suppression coil is located, usually 2-3 times the system power frequency.
[0090] Further, f c is the first series resonance frequency of the zero-sequence network, expressed by the following formula:

[0095] Step 4, feature extraction, including: calculating the transient energy and current direction of the fault component in the zero-sequence current characteristic frequency band according to the zero-sequence current sampling period variation.
[0096] Preferably, the dynamic data window length is calculated according to the zero-sequence voltage sampling period variation, specifically including:
[0097] Obtaining the zero-sequence voltage sampling period variation of each 2-cycle length before and after the single-phase ground fault time;
[0098] Based on the data buffer timing, the extreme point is screened out, the time t1 is confirmed, and the first peak point t2 is screened out with the time t1 as the starting point. The dynamic data window length is between the time t1 and the time t2.
[0099] More specifically, the necessary and sufficient condition for judging the time t1, i.e. the extreme point, is expressed by the following formula:
[0100]
[0101] In the formula:
[0102] Δu x t is the zero sequence voltage sampling period change amount at the node x at the time t1. t Δu x x is the zero sequence voltage sampling period change amount at the node at the time t1.

[0105] In the formula:
[0106] Δu x Δu x x is the zero sequence voltage sampling period change amount at the node
[0107] Therefore, the dynamic data window ΔT is calculated by the following formula:
[0108]
[0109] In the formula:
[0110] ΔT is the dynamic data window;

[0131] Preferably, according to the inter-node interaction information and format established in step 1, each node sends fault information to any node outside the node x, including but not limited to: zero sequence current direction, zero sequence current transient energy, zero sequence DC offset overrun, etc.
[0132] Preferably, the necessary and sufficient conditions for fault section judgment are that the transient energy of the zero sequence current of the node is much larger than that of other nodes, or the transient energy of the zero sequence current of the node is larger than that of other nodes and in different directions, or only the DC offset component of the zero sequence current of the node is larger than the threshold value, otherwise it is a bus fault, which is specifically expressed by the following formula:

[0138] If all the minimum isolation ranges do not satisfy the above conditions, it is a bus fault, and the node only gives an alarm.
[0139] Preferably but not limitedly, if the transient energy of the zero sequence current of the node is 4 times or more than that of other nodes, it can be considered that the transient energy of the zero sequence current of the node is much larger than that of other nodes. It can be understood that considering only 3 outages of the same length, a grounding occurs at the first end of a certain line, and the theoretical ratio is 4:1.
[0140] Preferably, the corresponding node switch tripping mode is as follows:
[0141] The node near the power supply side trips, the remaining nodes in the minimum isolation range receive a "successful tripping" command or detect a loss of voltage and open, isolating the fault section; if the tripping fails, the upper adjacent node on the power supply side sends a tripping failure message, and when the node switch receives the "tripping failure" message, the node switch trips immediately if it is in the closed state.
[0142] Step 6, fault recovery, the tie switch is time-differential coordinated and delayed to close, restoring power supply to the healthy area downstream of the fault.
[0143] Preferably, the tie switch is delayed to close as follows:
[0144] When the voltage on the tie switch side is lower than the threshold, preferably but not limited to 0.8 p.u., the tie switch is delayed to close, preferably but not limited to 60 ms, to restore power supply to the healthy area downstream of the fault. When the tie switch needs to be reclosed in cooperation with the substation outgoing switch, the delay closing logic needs to be started after reclosing fails.

Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including all the preferred embodiments and all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the present application.
[0166] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the present application without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present application fall within the scope of the claims of the present application and their equivalents, the present application is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
[0167] In order to more clearly introduce the outstanding substantial features of the present application and the significant progress brought to the prior art, an application example of implementing the present application is introduced below.
[0168] As shown in FIG. 2, a schematic diagram of a weak communication-based single-phase grounding fault section positioning system of a medium-voltage distribution network is shown.
[0169] The minimum isolation range of the fault section is defined as the area surrounded by the backbone line section switch and the branch / junction switch, and the branch switch and the junction switch, and the inside no longer contains switches with protection outlets. Therefore, based on the current network structure, 5 minimum isolation ranges are divided, denoted as 1#, 2#, 3#, 4# and 5#.
[0170] As shown in FIG. 3, first, consider a single-phase grounding fault of a distribution line, taking the fault of the backbone line between section switches FS1 and FS2 as an example. At this time, the fault current is the sum of the non-fault line capacitance current and the line capacitance current upstream of the fault point. From the fault point, the fault current flows to the bus through section switch FS1 and the substation outgoing line switch CB. The zero sequence current flowing through the remaining switches is only the line-to-ground capacitance current of the switch itself.
[0171] As shown in FIG. 4, there is no node in the 1#, 3#, 4# and 5# minimum isolation ranges that meets the fault section positioning judgment condition.
[0172] In the 2# minimum isolation range, node FS1 meets the fault section positioning judgment condition. Therefore, node switch FS1 near the power supply side trips, and the remaining nodes FS2, YS2, YS3 and YS4 in the fault minimum isolation range receive the trip success command or detect the loss of voltage and trip, thereby isolating the fault section.
[0173] As shown in FIG. 5, if node switch FS1 fails to trip, a “trip failure” message is sent to the upper adjacent node CB on the power supply side. Upon receiving the “trip failure” message, node CB switch trips immediately if it is in the closed state, thereby achieving fault isolation.
[0174] As shown in FIG. 6, when the tie switch LSW is below the threshold voltage (which can be 0.8 p.u.), the time difference coordination delay closing is used to restore the power supply to the healthy area 3# downstream of the fault. When the tie switch needs to be reclosed with the substation outgoing line switch, the delay closing logic needs to be started after reclosing failure.
[0175] As shown in FIG. 7, when a single-phase grounding fault occurs in the substation bus, the fault current directly flows to the bus through the fault point, and the zero sequence current flowing through all node switches is only the line-to-ground capacitance current of the switch itself.
[0176] 1#~5# Minimum isolation range, no fault section positioning research conditions meet the node, at this time, the node only fault alarm, no longer tripping.
[0177] The computer program instructions can also be loaded onto a computer or other programmable data processing apparatus to cause a series of operational steps to be performed on the computer or other programmable apparatus to produce a computer-implemented process such that the instructions which execute on the computer or other programmable apparatus provide steps for implementing the functions specified in the flowchart block or blocks. Figure 1 one or more flow or blocks Figure 1 means for functionally implementing the steps listed in the flowchart block or blocks.
[0178] These computer program instructions can also be stored in a computer-readable memory that can direct a computer or other programmable data processing apparatus to work in a specific manner, so that the instructions stored in the computer-readable memory produce an article of manufacture including an instruction device, which implements the function specified in the flowchart block or blocks.
