[0002] When a single-phase ground fault occurs in a power distribution line, it is often necessary to determine the location of the fault point in order to address it. Among related technologies, the main method for locating fault points in power distribution lines is the traveling wave method. The core principle of the traveling wave method is to utilize the characteristics of the traveling wave generated when a fault occurs and its propagation in the line. By analyzing parameters such as the arrival time and waveform characteristics of the traveling wave, the location of the fault point can be calculated. However, the traveling wave method requires additional high-precision detection and timing devices, which is not conducive to on-site implementation. Summary of the Invention

[0060] The core of this invention is to provide a method and apparatus for locating fault points in power distribution lines. Multiple virtual fault points are constructed, and the phase difference between zero-sequence voltage and zero-sequence current is calculated for each. No additional measuring equipment is required, and the calculation results are simpler. When the voltage phase and current phase are approximately the same, it is proven that this virtual fault point is the actual fault point.

[0061] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0062] Figure 1 A flowchart of a method for locating fault points in a power distribution line provided by the present invention includes:

[0063] S11: Determine the zero-sequence voltage, zero-sequence current and zero-sequence current at the beginning and end of the fault section of the power distribution line, and identify the fault point in the fault section.

[0064] S12: Construct multiple virtual fault points, and determine the zero-sequence current before the fault point and the zero-sequence voltage at the fault point based on the zero-sequence voltage at the beginning of the fault section, the zero-sequence current at the beginning of the fault section and the zero-sequence current at the end of the fault section.

[0065] S13: Determine the phase difference between the zero-sequence current before the virtual fault point and the zero-sequence voltage at the virtual fault point;

[0066] S14: Take the virtual fault point with a phase difference less than the judgment threshold as the fault point, and determine the fault distance between the fault point and the beginning of the fault section.

[0067] Currently, the main methods for locating fault points in power distribution lines include the traveling wave method and the fault analysis method. The traveling wave method has high ranging accuracy but requires additional high-precision detection and timing devices, making it less suitable for on-site implementation. The fault analysis method can directly establish a quantitative relationship between fault distance and electrical quantities from the voltage and current information measured and recorded on the feeder. Depending on the analysis object, it can be divided into frequency domain calculation methods based on steady-state power frequency components and time domain calculation methods based on transient full-band components. The fault analysis method only requires voltage and current measurement information on the line, making it more suitable for engineering implementation. However, the actual location accuracy is easily affected by factors such as line model parameters, system operation, signal measurement, and transition resistance.

[0068] Because a transition resistance exists at the fault point, and it is usually approximately purely resistive, a unique and strict phase constraint relationship always exists between the zero-sequence voltage across the transition resistance and the zero-sequence current flowing through it. That is, the instantaneous phase must always be consistent. Based on the distribution law of zero-sequence voltage and current on the line, this constraint condition holds only at the fault point. Due to the instantaneous phase constraint condition, the transition resistance is the electrical connection between fault points that is not an ideal metallic short circuit when a fault occurs; it is a certain resistance. The phase of the zero-sequence voltage across the transition resistance and the zero-sequence current flowing through it must always remain equal. Therefore, by determining the phase difference between the zero-sequence current before the virtual fault point and the zero-sequence voltage at the virtual fault point, it is possible to determine whether the virtual fault point is indeed a fault point.

[0069] Specifically, the calculation process requires determining the current and voltage at each point in the section based on the zero-sequence voltage at the beginning, the zero-sequence current at the beginning, and the zero-sequence current at the end. When calculating the current and voltage, the distance between the virtual fault points and the equivalent resistance between the virtual fault points also need to be considered.

[0070] This application provides a method and apparatus for locating fault points in power distribution lines, relating to the field of power distribution networks. The method includes constructing multiple virtual fault points and determining the zero-sequence current before the fault point and the zero-sequence voltage at the fault point based on the zero-sequence voltage, zero-sequence current at the beginning of the fault section, and zero-sequence current at the end of the fault section; determining the phase difference between the zero-sequence current before the virtual fault point and the zero-sequence voltage at the virtual fault point; identifying virtual fault points with a phase difference less than a judgment threshold as actual fault points, and determining the fault distance between the fault point and the beginning of the fault section. Since the zero-sequence voltage and zero-sequence current of each virtual fault point have a phase constraint relationship, when the voltage phase and current phase are approximately the same, it is proven that this virtual fault point is the actual fault point. Therefore, multiple virtual fault points are constructed, and the phase difference between the zero-sequence voltage and zero-sequence current is calculated separately, eliminating the need for additional measuring equipment and simplifying the calculation results.

[0071] Based on the above embodiments:

[0072] In some embodiments, determining the zero-sequence voltage at the beginning of a fault section of a power distribution line, the zero-sequence current at the beginning of the fault section, and the zero-sequence current at the end of the fault section includes:

[0073] After acquiring the fault occurrence time, at least two acquisition cycles are required for the discrete beginning zero-sequence voltage, discrete beginning zero-sequence current, and discrete end zero-sequence current of the fault segment.

[0074] The zero-sequence voltage, zero-sequence current and zero-sequence current at the beginning and end of the fault section in two acquisition cycles are fitted to obtain the zero-sequence voltage, zero-sequence current and zero-sequence current at the beginning and end.

[0075] The expressions for the zero-sequence voltage at the beginning, the zero-sequence current at the beginning, and the zero-sequence current at the end are:

[0076] ;

[0077] in, Let M be the zero-sequence current at time t. Let M be the zero-sequence current at time t. instantaneous amplitude, , Let M be the zero-sequence current at time t.

The magnitude of the cosine function term, Let M be the zero-sequence voltage at time t. The magnitude of the sine function term, Let be the zero-sequence current at terminal N at time t. Let N be the zero-sequence current at time t. instantaneous amplitude, Let N be the zero-sequence current at time t. The instantaneous initial phase, Let N be the zero-sequence current at time t. The magnitude of the cosine function term, Let N be the zero-sequence current at time t. The magnitude of the sine function term, Let N be the zero-sequence voltage at time t. Let N be the zero-sequence voltage at time t. instantaneous amplitude, Let N be the zero-sequence voltage at time t. The instantaneous initial phase, Let N be the zero-sequence voltage at time t. The magnitude of the cosine function term, Let N be the zero-sequence voltage at time t. The amplitude of the sin function term; the fault section is the section with M as the beginning and N as the end.

[0078] Based on the zero-sequence voltage, zero-sequence current at the beginning of the fault section, and zero-sequence current at the end of the fault section, determine the zero-sequence current before the fault point and the zero-sequence voltage at the fault point for each virtual fault point, including:

[0079] The zero-sequence voltage, zero-sequence current and zero-sequence current at the beginning and end of the continuous fault section are used to determine the zero-sequence current before the fault point and the zero-sequence voltage at the fault point of each virtual fault point.

[0080] The fault signal to be calculated is obtained by collecting N data points (at least one power frequency cycle) of zero-sequence voltage and current from the moment of fault occurrence using a waveform recorder. Since the model requires the (2q-p)-th order derivatives of the zero-sequence voltage and current during calculation, but the actual measured signals are discrete transient data, processing of the discrete transient data is necessary. This patent uses a sinusoidal representation method for transient signals proposed in existing literature to fit the discrete transient data to obtain a functional expression, which can then be differentiated at higher orders.

[0083] In some embodiments, multiple virtual fault points are constructed, and the zero-sequence current before the fault point and the zero-sequence voltage at the fault point are determined based on the zero-sequence voltage at the beginning of the fault section, the zero-sequence current at the beginning of the fault section, and the zero-sequence current at the end of the fault section, including:

[0084] Construct multiple virtual fault points, where the distance between any two adjacent virtual fault points is . And there is a transition resistance;

[0085] Based on the zero-sequence voltage and zero-sequence current at the beginning of the fault section, the virtual fault point inlet zero-sequence current and fault point zero-sequence voltage are determined for each virtual fault point. The expressions for the virtual fault point inlet zero-sequence current and fault point zero-sequence voltage are as follows:

Let R be the second transition function, l be the resistance per unit length, l be the length of the line, and L be the inductance per unit length.

[0088] like Figure 3 As shown, due to the presence of transition resistance at the fault point...

With the zero-sequence current flowing through the transition resistor There will always be a unique and strict phase constraint relationship, that is and The instantaneous phase should always be consistent. According to the distribution law of zero-sequence voltage and current on the line, this constraint condition only holds true at the fault point.

[0089] Assuming the search step size is That is, the faulty sections are evenly distributed at intervals per unit distance. Virtual fault points, such as Figure 3 As shown, the main method involves calculating the phase of the transition resistance at each point by setting virtual fault points, and finally identifying the point with the smallest phase difference as the actual fault point.

[0090] Due to instantaneous phase constraints, the transition resistance is defined as the resistance present when the electrical connection between fault points is not an ideal metallic short circuit during a fault, and a certain resistance exists. The zero-sequence voltage across the transition resistance is... and the zero-sequence current flowing through the transition resistance The phases should always remain equal, that is, satisfy the relation. Therefore, its instantaneous initial phase remains constant at all times, that is... .

[0091] By using trigonometric identity transformations, the instantaneous initial phase of the fault is transformed into:

[0092] .

[0093] The initial phase constraint condition for the fault can also be equivalent to:

[0094] .

[0095] Based on the above principles, substitute the distributed parameter line model to calculate the virtual fault point.

[0096] In some embodiments, the expression for the first transition function is:

Let be the 2q-p+1th derivative of the zero-sequence current at terminal M at time t. Let be the 2q-p derivative of the zero-sequence current at terminal M at time t;

[0099] The expression for the second transition function is:

[0100] ;

Let be the 2q-p-2nd order derivative of the zero-sequence voltage at terminal M at time t. The length of the line is a power of 2q. Let be the 2q-p derivative of the zero-sequence current at terminal M at time t. Let be the 2q-p-1 derivative of the zero-sequence current at terminal M at time t.

[0102] In some embodiments, before determining the phase difference between the zero-sequence current and the zero-sequence voltage before the virtual fault point, the method further includes:

[0110] Continuing with the distributed parameter circuit model, based on the idea of ​​cascading micro-circuits in the distributed parameter circuit model, we know that the current in the upper-order micro-circuit can be represented by the current and voltage flowing into the lower-order micro-circuit. This can be extended to the cascading of all micro-circuits in the entire downstream section of the fault point. Assuming the downstream section of the fault point consists of… A series of cascaded micro-element circuits are used to calculate the voltage of each micro-element on the line downstream of the fault point and its corresponding arbitrary derivative for a virtual point. The first derivative of the zero-sequence current after the fault point through the terminal current and the voltage of each micro-element is expressed as follows:
