Traditional power distribution fault monitoring methods mostly rely on centralized data collection and analysis systems, that is, through remote monitoring centers to process and judge the field data. However, this mode has problems such as high response delay, large communication bandwidth occupation, strong dependence on the center node, etc., and when facing sudden faults or local power failure scenes, it is often difficult to achieve fast and effective fault identification and positioning.
