Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application generally relates to the field of power system technology. More specifically, this application relates to a method and related products for monitoring leakage faults in power supply lines. Background Technology
[0002] With the intelligent transformation of power grids and the improvement of rural electrification, leakage fault monitoring in distribution transformer areas has become a key focus of power safety management. State Grid Corporation of China and other enterprises are vigorously promoting the construction of intelligent distribution transformer areas and driving the widespread application of leakage monitoring equipment and systems to improve power supply reliability, reduce line losses in distribution transformer areas, and ensure the safety of residents' electricity use.
[0003] By comparing the current of the main meter for a specific phase of a power supply line in a distribution area with the sum of the currents of each branch circuit, it is possible to determine whether there is a leakage fault in the upstream line of that phase. However, due to the inevitable deviations in the measurement results of metering equipment and the difficulty in maintaining complete consistency in the sampling times of multiple metering devices, the method of directly comparing the current of the main meter for the distribution area with the sum of the currents of each branch circuit has unreliable issues. In addition, in existing user energy meters, the phase sequence of the data collected by single-phase energy meters defaults to phase A of the main meter for the distribution area; the phases A, B, and C of the data collected by three-phase energy meters default to phases A, B, and C of the main meter for the distribution area, respectively. In reality, the phase sequence of the data collected by user energy meters does not necessarily conform to this default value. This mismatch between the phase sequence of the collected data and the actual physical phase lines makes it impossible to effectively determine which part of the power supply phase line in the power supply area has a fault, and it is also impossible to comprehensively use the data collected by multiple energy meters to monitor leakage faults in the upstream lines of the distribution area.
[0004] In view of this, this application provides a method and related products for monitoring leakage faults in power supply lines, so as to effectively utilize the data collected by smart meters during operation to accurately identify leakage faults in the lines before the meters in the distribution area. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to at least solve one or more of the technical problems mentioned above, this application proposes methods and related products for monitoring leakage faults in power supply lines in several aspects.
[0006] In a first aspect, this application provides a method for monitoring leakage faults in power supply lines, comprising: identifying in-phase energy meters associated with the power supply line; obtaining branch currents of each branch of the power supply line based on sampling data from the in-phase energy meters at multiple sampling time points; calculating the difference current between the total current of the transformer substation and the total current of the branches at multiple sampling time points to obtain a difference current sequence; and determining whether a leakage fault exists in the power supply line based on the stability of the difference current sequence; wherein the in-phase energy meters include user energy meters with the same phase sequence as the power supply line.
[0007] In a second aspect, this application provides an electronic device, including: a processor; and a memory having program code stored thereon for monitoring leakage faults in power supply lines, wherein when the program code is executed by the processor, the electronic device performs the method described in the first aspect.
[0008] In a third aspect, this application provides a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium having stored program code thereon for monitoring leakage faults in power supply lines, which, when executed by a processor, causes the method described in the first aspect to be implemented.
[0009] Using the methods and related products for monitoring leakage faults in power supply lines provided above, this application achieves the monitoring and analysis of leakage faults in the line before the meter in a distribution area by combining two dimensions: the conservation of current in the distribution area and the characteristics of leakage current. The method proposed in this application can monitor leakage faults in the line before the meter in a distribution area solely based on the load curve data of existing electricity meters in the Electricity Information Acquisition 2.0 system, without requiring additional hardware equipment. This reduces investment in hardware installation and fills the research gap in monitoring leakage faults in the line before the meter in a distribution area without relying on additional hardware equipment.

[0021] The specific embodiments of this application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0022] In a power system, a distribution area refers to a complete distribution unit centered around a single distribution transformer, covering its power supply range. It is also the basic unit for power companies to distribute electricity, perform metering statistics, and manage operation and maintenance. Distribution areas use transformers to step down high-voltage electricity from the upper-level power grid to low-voltage electricity, which is then distributed to individual users through pre-meter lines.
[0023] Figure 1 Exemplary schematic diagrams of power supply areas in some embodiments of this application are shown. For example... Figure 1 As shown, this could be a three-phase power supply from a three-phase generator or transformer, used to output stable and efficient three-phase electricity. The three-phase electricity consists of three alternating currents with the same frequency, equal amplitude, and phases differing by 120° sequentially, transmitted via live wires, each corresponding to a different phase. Figure 1 The A-phase live wire, B-phase live wire, and C-phase live wire are also called phase wires; the neutral wire, also called the neutral line, has a potential of zero under ideal conditions and is used to form a power supply circuit with the live wires.
[0024] like Figure 1 The power supply system shown includes a main meter for the entire distribution area and individual electricity meters. The main meter for the entire distribution area measures the electricity consumption, while individual electricity meters (such as...) Figure 1 In this power supply system, single-phase energy meters (A) and three-phase energy meters (B and C) are used to measure the electrical energy consumed by each or some users. A single-phase power supply can be drawn from any one phase line and neutral line to power a single-phase load; a three-phase power supply can be drawn from all three phase lines and neutral line to power a three-phase load. Corresponding to single-phase and three-phase loads, user energy meters can be classified as single-phase energy meters and three-phase energy meters.
[0025] continue Figure 1 In some embodiments, a single-phase power supply circuit consisting of any one phase wire and a neutral wire can be equipped with knife switches S1 and S2 and a single-phase energy meter A. In other embodiments, a three-phase power supply circuit consisting of three phase wires and a neutral wire can be equipped with knife switches S3 and S4 and a three-phase energy meter B. The knife switches are used to control the on / off state of the circuit, and can quickly cut off the power supply during equipment maintenance, troubleshooting, or emergencies, ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment. In some embodiments, a combined junction box can also be installed in both single-phase and three-phase power supply circuits. The combined junction box is used to reliably connect the energy meter, transformer, and power line together, ensuring accurate transmission of power signals and preventing external factors from affecting the metering equipment. In some embodiments, transformers can be installed in the three-phase power supply circuit. Transformers are divided into voltage transformers and current transformers, used to transform high voltage and large current into low voltage and small current to facilitate measurement and protect the safe operation of the equipment.
[0026] Within a power distribution area, electricity can be supplied to a large number of low-voltage users. For example, all residents in a community might share one distribution area, or all offices in an office building might share one distribution area. Each low-voltage user has a specific set of metering equipment to ensure accurate metering of all users' electricity consumption. Therefore, for example... Figure 1 The power supply system shown can be equipped with a specified number of metering devices according to actual needs and the number of low-voltage users.
[0027] A leakage fault before the meter in a distribution transformer area refers to a power fault in which, due to insulation damage, line aging, abnormal grounding, or other reasons, some current leaks into the ground or other non-consumer circuits through damaged areas or grounding electrodes, instead of flowing through the meter normally. Since these pre-meter lines are public power supply facilities exposed outdoors or in public areas, leakage can lead to energized grounding electrodes and discharge at damaged points, posing a risk of electric shock to pedestrians, construction workers, and residents. Currently, leakage faults in pre-meter lines are managed through a reactive, post-incident detection mechanism, resulting in significant economic losses and safety hazards. Therefore, research on leakage monitoring and analysis methods for pre-meter lines in distribution transformer areas is urgently needed to address this safety risk. This research aims to achieve early detection, prevention, and handling of leakage faults in pre-meter lines, thereby significantly reducing economic losses caused by these faults, mitigating safety risks in distribution transformer areas, improving the reliability and security of smart grid operation, and ensuring the safe and stable operation of the smart grid.
[0028] Currently, leakage current monitoring methods for transformer substations include two categories: on-site inspection and remote online monitoring. On-site inspection of leakage faults mainly relies on manual step-by-step power outages, pole climbing and disconnection, and door-to-door searches when a high line loss rate is detected in the substation. Methods such as branch power testing and clamp-on ammeter positioning are also used to detect the cause of the leakage. Only if a leakage fault in the pre-meter line causes a sudden high line loss in the substation will grassroots maintenance personnel pay attention to such substations, conduct on-site verification of the cause of the high loss, and measure whether there is leakage current in the transformer grounding wire. On-site inspection methods for leakage faults are susceptible to interference from factors such as metering failures and abnormal power consumption. If a leakage fault in the pre-meter line does not cause a high line loss index in the substation, it is difficult to detect in a timely manner, leading to prolonged power loss. The main method for remote online monitoring of leakage current in the line before the meter in a transformer substation relies on the installation of hardware equipment, such as installing a current transformer at the grounding flat iron position of the transformer to monitor the leakage current, or installing a measuring switch at the branch line or meter box position to monitor the leakage current. These methods can detect some leakage current faults in the line before the meter in a transformer substation, but they also increase the investment cost of the substation and are not suitable for large-scale promotion and application.
[0029] With the comprehensive upgrade of the Electricity Information Acquisition 2.0 system, it can collect 96-point curve data such as current and power, providing strong data support and technical foundation for intelligent monitoring of leakage faults in transformer substations. However, in terms of using multi-dimensional data features and deep correlation analysis to identify leakage faults in transformer substations, the domestic industry still lacks efficient and accurate analysis methods and technologies, and the potential in this field has not yet been fully released and explored.
[0030] Figure 2 Exemplary schematic diagrams of power supply areas in some embodiments of this application are shown. For example... Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, phase A of the transformer substation includes n power supply branches, phase B of the substation includes m power supply branches, and phase C of the substation includes h power supply branches. Let I be the phase A current in the substation's overall meter. A The equivalent resistance values of the electrical loads of the equipment in each power supply branch of phase A are RA1~RA1. n The branch currents are IA1~IA. n Let the current of phase B in the transformer substation's main meter be I. B The equivalent resistance values of the electrical loads of the equipment in each power supply branch of phase B are RB1~RB1. m The branch currents are IB1~IB1. m Let the current of phase C in the transformer substation's main meter be I. C The equivalent resistance of the electrical load of the equipment in the C-phase power supply branch is RC1~RC h The branch current is IC1~IC h Kirchhoff's Current Law states that at any node, the sum of the currents flowing into the node is equal to the sum of the currents flowing out of the node. For Figure 2 The example shown can be used to obtain the current for phase A according to Kirchhoff's current law. Similarly, phase B can be obtained It is possible to obtain the C phase. .
[0031] Figure 3 This illustration shows an exemplary schematic diagram of a leakage fault in the pre-meter line of a power supply area in some embodiments of this application. For example... Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, a leakage fault exists in the pre-meter line of phase A in the transformer substation, generating leakage current. At this point, according to Kirchhoff's current law, we can obtain: .
[0032] By comparing the total current of a specific phase of a power supply line in a transformer substation with the sum of the currents of each branch circuit, it is possible to determine whether there is a leakage fault in the upstream line of that phase. However, due to the inevitable deviations in the measurement results of electricity meters and the difficulty in maintaining perfect consistency in the sampling times of multiple electricity meters, the method of directly comparing the total current of the transformer substation with the sum of the currents of each branch circuit suffers from insufficient reliability. The inventors of this application discovered in practice that when the leakage fault contact point is stable, during the fault period... Approximately a constant value, the stability of the difference between the current in the main meter of a power supply line corresponding to a certain phase and the sum of the currents in each branch can be used to determine whether there is a leakage fault in the pre-meter line of that phase power supply line. However, in existing user energy meters, the phase sequence of the data collected by single-phase energy meters defaults to phase A of the main meter of the power supply line; the phases A, B, and C of the data collected by three-phase energy meters default to phases A, B, and C of the main meter of the power supply line, respectively. In reality, the phase sequence of the data collected by user energy meters does not necessarily correspond to this default value with the phase sequence of the main meter of the power supply line. This mismatch between the phase sequence of the collected data and the actual physical phase lines makes it impossible to effectively determine which part of the power supply phase line in the power supply area has a fault, and it is also impossible to comprehensively use the collected data from multiple energy meters to monitor leakage faults in the pre-meter line of the power supply area. In view of this, this application provides a method for monitoring leakage faults in power supply lines, so as to effectively utilize the data collected by smart energy meters during operation to accurately identify leakage faults in the pre-meter line of the power supply area.
[0033] In some embodiments, the method for monitoring leakage faults in power supply lines proposed in this application includes: identifying in-phase energy meters associated with the power supply line; obtaining the branch current of each branch of the power supply line based on the sampling data of the in-phase energy meters at multiple sampling time points; calculating the difference current between the total current of the transformer substation and the total current of the branches at multiple sampling time points to obtain a difference current sequence; and determining whether a leakage fault exists in the power supply line based on the stability of the difference current sequence; wherein, the in-phase energy meters include user energy meters with the same phase sequence as the power supply line.
[0034] In a power supply area, the A-phase, B-phase, and C-phase live wires can each form a power supply line with the neutral wire. The area is equipped with a main meter and multiple user energy meters. These meters periodically collect electrical parameters such as voltage, current, and power. Based on the data collected from the user energy meters and the main meter, the phase sequence of the user energy meters can be determined. This determines whether a single-phase user energy meter is connected to an A-phase, B-phase, or C-phase power supply line, or the correspondence between the three phase wires of a three-phase user energy meter and the A, B, and C phases. After determining the phase sequence of all user energy meters in the power supply area, the corresponding energy meters for each of the A, B, and C phase power supply lines can be identified.
[0035] The power supply lines drawn from the transformer can supply power to multiple users, thus each power supply line can include multiple branches. The main transformer meter records the current flowing from the transformer at each sampling time point, and the user's electricity meter records the current flowing through that meter at each sampling time point. In some embodiments, the main transformer meter and the user's electricity meter sample at the same time point; for example, the main transformer meter and the user's electricity meter can sample once or multiple times per second. In these embodiments, multiple sampling time points within a week or a month can be selected to analyze whether there is a leakage fault in the power supply line before the meter. The branch current can be obtained based on the data recorded by the user's electricity meter on each branch, and the total branch current can be obtained by summing the currents of all branches.
[0036] At each sampling time point, the difference between the total current of the transformer substation and the total current of the branch circuit can be used to obtain the differential current corresponding to that time point. Thus, the differential currents corresponding to multiple sampling time points constitute a differential current sequence. In some embodiments, the transformer substation meter and the user's energy meter are mutual inductance energy meters. The original current data collected are multiplied by the transformation ratio coefficient to obtain the current data of the transformer substation meter and the user's energy meter. The differential current is then calculated based on the current data of the transformer substation meter and the user's energy meter. The causes of differential current include slight differences in the sampling time of the transformer substation meter and the user's energy meter, energy meter measurement errors, and leakage current faults in the upstream lines. To determine whether the differential current is caused by a leakage current fault in the upstream lines, based on the characteristic that the leakage current is approximately a constant value during the fault period when the contact point of the upstream line leakage fault is stable, this application uses the stability of the differential current sequence to determine whether a leakage current fault exists in the power supply line.
[0037] Understandably, this application combines the two dimensions of transformer area current conservation and leakage current characteristics to achieve the monitoring and analysis of leakage faults in the line before the transformer meter. The method proposed in this application can monitor leakage faults in the line before the transformer meter using only the load curve data of the existing electricity meter in the electricity information acquisition 2.0 system, without the need for additional hardware equipment. This reduces the investment in installing hardware equipment and fills the research gap in monitoring leakage faults in the line before the transformer meter without relying on additional hardware equipment.
[0038] In some embodiments, the method for monitoring leakage faults in power supply lines proposed in this application includes: identifying the number of time points in the differential current sequence that exceed a first current difference threshold to obtain a first abnormal time point number; identifying the number of time points in the differential current sequence that exceed a second current difference threshold to obtain a second abnormal time point number; and in response to the ratio of the second abnormal time point number to the first abnormal time point number exceeding a preset ratio threshold, initiating an operation to determine whether there is a leakage fault in the power supply line based on the stability of the differential current sequence; wherein the second current difference threshold is greater than the first current difference threshold.
[0039] In some embodiments, the first current difference threshold can be 1A, the second current difference threshold can be 2A, and the preset ratio threshold can be 90%. Each difference current in the difference current sequence corresponds to a sampling time point. The number of first abnormal time points (N0) and the number of second abnormal time points (N1) can be calculated based on the difference current value at each sampling time point. Both the first and second abnormal time points have a significant difference current, with the difference current at the second abnormal time point being larger than that at the first abnormal time point. In these embodiments, by calculating the ratio of N1 / N0 and comparing it with the preset ratio threshold, the operation of determining whether there is a leakage fault in the power supply line based on the stability of the difference current sequence is initiated only when the ratio of N1 / N0 exceeds the preset ratio threshold. If the ratio of N1 / N0 does not reach the preset ratio threshold, the operation of determining whether there is a leakage fault in the power supply line based on the stability of the difference current sequence is not initiated. This effectively filters out the moments when there is a possible leakage fault, thereby accurately identifying leakage faults in the upstream lines.
[0040] In some embodiments, the method for monitoring leakage faults in power supply lines proposed in this application includes: in response to determining that there is a leakage fault in the power supply line based on the stability of the differential current sequence, verifying the correctness of the determination result based on the leakage current and the power loss of the power supply line.
[0041] Understandably, since the leakage point is located before the user's electricity meter, the leakage current flows through the main meter of the distribution area but not into the user's electricity meter. The current detected by the main meter includes the leakage current of the line before the meter, while the current detected by the user's electricity meter does not. A portion of the electrical energy output by the transformer is not utilized by the user, resulting in power loss. In some embodiments, when a leakage fault is determined in the power supply line based on the stability of the differential current sequence, the correctness of the judgment is further verified by combining the leakage current with the power loss of the power supply line. Here, leakage current refers to the electrical energy lost due to the leakage fault in the line before the meter. When the leakage current and the power loss are approximately equal, it can be considered that a leakage fault does exist in the power supply line, and the judgment based on the stability of the differential current sequence is also correct.
[0042] In some embodiments, verifying the correctness of the judgment result based on the leakage current and the power loss of the power supply line includes: obtaining the leakage current of the first day and the power loss of the power supply line of the first day; determining the difference between the maximum and minimum daily power loss of the power supply line in a month to obtain the daily power loss range; and determining that the judgment result is correct in response to the first day leakage current being less than the first day power loss and the ratio of the first day leakage current to the daily power loss range being within a first preset ratio range.
[0043] In some embodiments, the leakage current generated on the same day (denoted as Day 1) and the daily power loss of the power supply line are obtained to obtain the leakage current and power loss of the first day. In these embodiments, the maximum and minimum daily power loss values in the month containing Day 1 are obtained, and the difference between the maximum and minimum daily power loss values is used to obtain the range of daily power loss. It is understood that the leakage current caused by the leakage fault in the line before the meter should be less than the daily power loss and approximately equal to the range of daily power loss within a month; based on this, when the leakage current of the first day is less than the daily power loss and the ratio of the leakage current of the first day to the range of daily power loss is within a first preset ratio range, the judgment result is determined to be correct. The first preset ratio range can be [90%, 100%] or [85%, 100%].
[0044] In some embodiments, the leakage current at each sampling time is calculated based on the current data recorded by the main meter of the distribution area for the power supply line and the current data recorded by the user's energy meter with the same phase sequence as the power supply line in Day 1, to obtain the daily leakage current data; the leakage amount for the first day is calculated based on the daily current data. For example, based on... To calculate the leakage current at each sampling time in Day 1, where, This represents the leakage current at time t. This represents the total meter current of the transformer substation corresponding to the power supply line at time t. This represents the branch current of the i-th branch at time t; then according to To calculate the leakage power on the first day, where This indicates the leakage power on the first day, and its unit is kWh. This indicates the starting sampling time in Day 1. This indicates the last sampling time in Day 1.
[0045] In some embodiments, verifying the correctness of the judgment result based on the leakage current and the power loss of the power supply line includes: obtaining the leakage current of the first day and the leakage current of the second day, as well as the power loss of the power supply line of the first day and the power loss of the second day; determining the difference between the maximum and minimum daily power loss of the power supply line in a month to obtain the daily power loss range; and determining that the judgment result is correct in response to the following: the leakage current of the first day is less than the power loss of the first day, the leakage current of the second day is less than the power loss of the second day, the ratio of the leakage current of the first day to the daily power loss range is within a first preset ratio range, the ratio of the leakage current of the second day to the daily power loss range is within a first preset ratio range, and the ratio of the leakage current of the first day to the leakage current of the second day is within a second preset ratio range.
[0046] In some embodiments, the leakage current and the daily power loss of the power supply line are obtained on the same day (denoted as Day 1) to obtain the leakage current and power loss of the first day; the leakage current and the daily power loss of the power supply line are obtained on another day (denoted as Day 2) to obtain the leakage current and power loss of the second day. In these embodiments, the maximum and minimum daily power loss values in the month containing Day 1 or Day 2 are obtained, and the difference between the maximum and minimum daily power loss values is used to obtain the daily power loss range.
[0047] In some embodiments, Day 1 and Day 2 are two consecutive days. It is understood that the leakage current caused by a current leakage fault in the pre-meter line should be less than the daily power loss and approximately equal to the range of daily power loss within a month. Furthermore, due to the stability of the leakage current, the leakage current over two consecutive days should be approximately equal. The judgment is considered correct when the leakage current on the first day is less than the power loss on the first day, the leakage current on the second day is less than the power loss on the second day, the ratio of the leakage current on the first day to the range of daily power loss is within a first preset ratio range, the ratio of the leakage current on the second day to the range of daily power loss is within a first preset ratio range, and the ratio of the leakage current on the first day to the leakage current on the second day is within a second preset ratio range. The second preset ratio range can be [90%, 110%]. The leakage current on the first day has already been given above. The same calculation method can be used to calculate the leakage current on the second day. This will not be elaborated upon here.
[0048] In some embodiments, determining the in-phase energy meter associated with a power supply line includes: acquiring voltage time-series data of a user's energy meter to obtain first voltage time-series data; acquiring voltage time-series data of the transformer substation corresponding to the power supply line to obtain second voltage time-series data; acquiring voltage time-series data of the transformer substation corresponding to a first candidate power supply line to obtain third voltage time-series data; acquiring voltage time-series data of the transformer substation corresponding to a second candidate power supply line to obtain fourth voltage time-series data; calculating a correlation coefficient between the first voltage time-series data and the second voltage time-series data to obtain a first correlation coefficient; calculating a correlation coefficient between the first voltage time-series data and the third voltage time-series data to obtain a second correlation coefficient; calculating a correlation coefficient between the first voltage time-series data and the fourth voltage time-series data to obtain a third correlation coefficient; and determining the power supply line in phase sequence with the user's energy meter based on the first correlation coefficient, the second correlation coefficient, and the third correlation coefficient.
[0049] The power supply line can be an A-phase power supply line or a B / C phase power supply line. When the power supply line is an A-phase power supply line, the first candidate power supply line and the second candidate power supply line can be B / C phase power supply lines, respectively. When the power supply line is a B-phase power supply line, the first candidate power supply line and the second candidate power supply line can be A / C phase power supply lines, respectively. When the power supply line is a C-phase power supply line, the first candidate power supply line and the second candidate power supply line can be B / A phase power supply lines, respectively. In these embodiments, voltage timing data from the user's electricity meter is obtained to obtain first voltage timing data; voltage timing data corresponding to the power supply line, the first candidate power supply line, and the second candidate power supply line are obtained from the distribution area meter to obtain second, third, and fourth voltage timing data, respectively, and the obtained voltage timing data correspond to the same sampling time; the correlation coefficient between the user's electricity meter's voltage timing data and the voltage timing data of the distribution area meter for the three-phase power supply line is calculated, and then the phase sequence corresponding to the power supply line with the highest correlation to the user's electricity meter's voltage timing data is taken as the phase sequence of the user's electricity meter. After determining the phase sequence of all users' electricity meters in the distribution area, the electricity meters in the same phase related to the power supply line can be obtained.
[0050] In some embodiments, the first correlation coefficient, the second correlation coefficient, and the third correlation coefficient are Pearson correlation coefficients.

Indicates to Calculate the covariance with b. They represent respectively to Calculate the variance. According to the formula...

After insulation treatment of the leakage point, the high-loss anomaly in the area returned to normal.
