Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power system relay protection technology, and in particular to a multi-terminal area protection method and system for digital-analog signal fusion and comparison. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional current protection criteria based on switching quantities require that only one node in the area fails, while other nodes do not meet the fault conditions. This criterion relies on a significant increase in short-circuit current on one side exceeding a set value during a fault, while the other side exhibits weak deficiencies. In systems without distributed photovoltaic (PV) grid connection, the short-circuit current on the power supply side is larger than that on the load side during a fault, a fault characteristic consistent with switching quantity-based protection criteria. However, with the grid connection of distributed PV, the additional current generated by its connection affects the fault current detected at each protection installation point, thus impacting the accuracy of current protection operation. Furthermore, as the capacity and number of distributed PV installations increase, the impact of distributed PV grid connection becomes more significant. If traditional switching quantity protection criteria for distribution networks are still used, protection devices are prone to failure to operate or maloperation, which is detrimental to the stable operation of the distribution network.

[0075] Furthermore, to achieve the above objectives, the present invention also provides a computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program, which, when executed by a processor, implements the multi-terminal region protection method for digital-analog signal fusion comparison as described above.
[0076] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely one preferred embodiment of the invention and are only used to explain the invention. They do not limit the scope of protection of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.
[0077] Example 1
[0078] according to Figure 2 The topological relationships shown are simulated, with a photovoltaic capacity of 15MW. / 11=0.787kA, I setL Taking 1.2 times the rated photovoltaic current, we get: 0.944kA; taking k H =0.8, then *I setL=1.18kA. Taking the protection zone formed by switches 3, 4, and 32 as an example, switch 3 is defined as the system side, switch 32 as the photovoltaic side, and switch 4 as the load side.
[0079] When a metallic fault occurs at point F1 within the zone, the system-side current is 8.69 kA, and the photovoltaic-side current is 1.07 kA. qd =2, enter the regional amplitude comparison criterion. I max =8.69A, since the photovoltaic side current is less than k1*I max The criteria are met, and reliable protection is provided without rejection.
[0080] The reliability coefficient k1 in the criterion should be chosen to ensure reliable operation during faults outside the designated area. Considering extreme cases where photovoltaic power is concentrated within the area, when a fault occurs downstream outside the area via a transition resistor, the short-circuit current supplied by the system is essentially the same as the short-circuit current of the distributed power source. The difference in short-circuit current flowing through the two sectionalizing switches within the area is the largest, reaching twice the value. To ensure that faults outside the designated area do not cause false tripping, k1 is set to 0.4. Simulation results show that when a fault occurs via the transition resistor F2 outside the designated area, the system-side current is 1.12 kA, the photovoltaic-side current is 1.06 kA, and the load-side current is 2.02 kA. qd =3, I max = 2.02A. Since both the photovoltaic side current and the system side current are greater than k1*I... max It provides reliable protection and prevents accidental activation.
