Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to power system relay protection technology, and in particular to a distance protection method applicable to AC transmission systems with distributed generation access, which can effectively address the problems of fault transition impedance and impedance measurement errors caused by distributed power source access. Background Technology

[0002] In power systems, line faults are common operational safety hazards, seriously threatening grid stability and reliable power supply. Effective protection measures must be taken to ensure system safety. Distance protection, a relay protection method that operates based on fault distance, has been widely used in power systems due to its advantages such as accurate location and rapid action. Its basic principle is to determine whether the fault is located within the protection zone by measuring the impedance between the protection installation point and the fault point. In uniform transmission lines, impedance is proportional to distance, so fault location can be indirectly achieved through impedance measurement. Traditional distance protection algorithms are usually based on short-circuit models, calculating the fault loop impedance (i.e., U / I) by measuring local voltage and current. While this method is simple to implement, it relies on a fundamental assumption: the fault transition resistance is zero, meaning the fault point voltage is considered zero during a metallic short circuit.

[0003] However, in real-world systems, especially ground faults via transition resistance, the transition resistance is not zero. This resistance is composed of various factors, including the resistance of the fault arc, the grounding resistance of the tower, and the resistance of trees or other dielectric materials. The presence of transition resistance, particularly its resistive component, significantly increases the amplitude of the measured impedance, resulting in a measured impedance greater than the actual line impedance. This narrows the protection range and may cause protection failure, hindering rapid fault isolation. To address the impact of transition resistance, scholars both domestically and internationally have proposed several improvement schemes, such as using adaptive methods based on virtual measured voltage, dynamically adjusting setpoints using voltage drop equations, or employing distributed parameter models to accurately account for line distributed capacitance and mutual inductance effects. These methods improve the ability to withstand transition resistance to some extent, but still suffer from problems such as computational complexity, limited adaptability, or dependence on specific network parameters.

[0004] Meanwhile, with the rapid development of renewable energy, distributed generation (DG) has been massively integrated into the grid, profoundly changing the traditional power system structure and operation. Distributed sources typically connect to the transmission and distribution network via power electronic converters, which not only alters the unidirectional nature of power flow, leading to bidirectional power flow in the lines, but also challenges the traditional distance protection principle based on single-source systems. During faults, distributed sources provide additional short-circuit currents to the fault point. This current flows through the protection installation location, significantly affecting voltage and current measurements, causing serious errors in impedance calculations, potentially leading to over-range or under-range protection operation, or even false tripping or failure to trip. Although existing research has attempted to suppress the impact of distributed sources by controlling converter output or using artificial intelligence algorithms for adaptive adjustment, these methods either rely on specific control of the power source (difficult to coordinate in practical multi-source systems) or suffer from insufficient real-time performance and reliability.

[0005] In summary, traditional distance protection algorithms exhibit significant performance degradation when simultaneously facing non-negligible fault transition impedance and bidirectional currents introduced by distributed generation (DG) connections, making it difficult to meet the requirements of modern complex power grids for protection selectivity, speed, and reliability. Therefore, a novel distance protection method is urgently needed that comprehensively considers the effects of fault transition resistance and DG connection. This method should not rely on specific control of DG connections and should possess strong versatility and robustness. Summary of the Invention

[0027] This invention provides a distance protection method for microgrids considering distributed power source integration, applicable to the field of power system relay protection. Its key feature is that it transforms the problem of accurately calculating fault impedance involving distributed power sources into a geometric constraint solution problem in a voltage-current phasor diagram. Based on the known R / X ratio of the line and local measurability, a mapping function is constructed using geometric relationships such as the sine theorem and cosine theorem to derive an explicit analytical expression for the fault impedance. This leads to the establishment of a universal criterion applicable to different transition impedance properties and distributed power source integration scenarios.

[0028] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the distance protection method for microgrids considering distributed power source access provided by the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, including but not limited to the following steps: Step S102: After constructing the fault model of the system with distributed power supply access, obtain the voltage phasor and current phasor at the relay, and the voltage phasor and load current phasor at the common connection point, and construct the voltage-current phasor diagram.

If the fault impedance value is less than the preset impedance threshold, determine that the fault is located within the protection zone and generate a protection action command.

[0029] The aforementioned microgrid distance protection method considering distributed power source access addresses the problem of large impedance measurement errors and malfunctions in traditional distance protection due to transition resistance and backfeed current from distributed power sources in complex power grid environments. It proposes a systematic solution based on voltage-current phasor geometric analysis.

[0030] By establishing a fault model for a power transmission system with distributed power source access, and by comprehensively utilizing local electrical quantity measurement information from relay installation points and points of common coupling (PCC), combined with the known preset nominal ratio R / X of the line, a geometric relationship diagram of voltage and current phasors is constructed in the complex plane.

[0031] Based on this, and using geometric laws such as the sine and cosine laws, the problem of fault impedance calculation is transformed into an analytical problem under geometric constraints. Through rigorous mathematical derivation, a general explicit expression applicable to resistive, inductive, and capacitive transition impedances is obtained. Applying this criterion to distance protection can accurately quantify the intrinsic relationship between the type of transition resistance, the current injected by distributed generation, and the measured impedance. High-precision fault location can be achieved without relying on specific control of distributed generation. This has significant guiding significance for improving the protection reliability of power grids with a high proportion of distributed energy, preventing protection maloperation and failure to operate, and providing an effective technical means for fault protection and safe and stable operation of modern power grids.

[0032] The following is a detailed description of the above-mentioned microgrid distance protection method considering distributed power source access, using a complete example: Figure 2 shows a system model with distributed power source access, including a distributed generation and transmission system model and a distributed generation and transmission system short-circuit model.

[0033] In this embodiment, the distributed power sources in the distributed power source access system are connected to the grid via high-voltage DC or AC.

[0037] Furthermore, the statement based on the first phase angle Second phase angle and line impedance angle For fault transition impedances of different types, voltage-current phasor diagrams are constructed respectively, including: When the fault transition impedance is purely resistive, construct the first voltage phasor. With the load current phasor In phase, a voltage-current phasor diagram is obtained; When the fault transition impedance is inductive or capacitive, the voltage phasor at the fault point is collected. and obtain the load current phasor and voltage phasor The third phase angle between ; According to the third phase angle Second phase angle Determine the voltage-current phasor diagram.

[0038] Based on the above embodiments, as an optional embodiment, the microgrid distance protection method considering distributed power source access provided by the present invention, wherein calculating the fault impedance value from the relay to the fault point using geometric theorems based on the voltage-current phasor diagram, includes: When the fault transition impedance is purely resistive, the fault impedance value includes a simplified criterion: ; in, The fault impedance value from the point of common coupling to the fault point. The second phase angle is the relationship between the second voltage phasor and the load current phasor. Acquire the second voltage phasor for the distributed power source's point of common coupling. The line impedance angle. This is the load current phasor.

[0039] Furthermore, the step of calculating the fault impedance value from the relay to the fault point using geometric theorems based on the voltage-current phasor diagram also includes: When the fault transition impedance is inductive or capacitive, the fault impedance value includes a general criterion: when The specific fault impedance value is as follows: ; when The specific fault impedance value is as follows: ; when When the impedance is capacitive, the specific fault impedance value is as follows: ; in, The fault impedance value, Load current phasor and voltage phasor The third phase angle between them, The second phase angle is the relationship between the second voltage phasor and the load current phasor. Acquire the second voltage phasor for the distributed power source's point of common coupling. The line impedance angle. This is the load current phasor.

[0040] The method for obtaining the load current phasor is as follows: It is the sum of the first current phasor and the distributed source injection current phasor.

[0041]

[0042] in, For load current phasor, This is the first current phasor. Inject current phasors into distributed power sources.

[0043] Specifically, when the fault transition impedance is purely resistive, the following expression is defined. , and Phasor relationships between them:

[0044] in, This is the first voltage phasor at the relay mounting point after the fault occurs. This is the first current phasor at the relay mounting point after the fault occurs. The impedance value from the relay to the point of common connection. Acquire the second voltage phasor for the distributed power source's point of common coupling. Voltage phasor at the fault point For distributed power source current, The voltage at the point of common coupling is given, and point F is the short-circuit point. This is the fault transition impedance.

[0045] Figure 3 This shows the voltage-current phasor diagram when the fault transition resistance is a pure resistance. Because... The existence of [the current] is based solely on locally measured current and impedance. , and It cannot be directly determined. To achieve localized impedance measurement between the relay and the fault point, the following assumptions can be made: (1) Impedance from the relay to the point of common coupling (PCC) Known; (2) and The R / X ratios are the same; (3) Assume that there is no load at point PCC and all loads are connected to the system bus P.

[0046] In practice, the distance between the relay and the PCC point is fixed, and their impedance can be measured in advance. Furthermore, if the cable types are the same, then... and The R / X ratios must be equal. Therefore, the above assumption is considered reasonable.

[0047] Therefore, according to geometric theorems, we can obtain :

[0048] in, This is the voltage phasor at the relay. For the voltage phasor at point PCC, Let F be the voltage phasor at fault point F. The current phasor at the relay. Injecting current phasors into distributed power sources , It is the impedance from the relay to the point of common connection (PCC).

[0050] Given the voltage, current, and angle after the connection point of the distributed power source. A simpler calculation method is obtained by not considering its angle:

[0051] in, For the voltage phasor at point PCC, The current phasor at the relay. Injecting current phasors into distributed power sources , The phase angle is the line impedance. for and The angle between them.

[0052] As can be seen, if the voltage amplitude at the point of common coupling of the distributed power sources and the current amplitude and angle after grid connection are known, the expression is the same as when no distributed power sources are connected. Therefore, as long as the voltage amplitude at the point of common coupling of the distributed power sources and the current amplitude and angle after grid connection are known, regardless of how many distributed power source systems are connected or where they are connected, the problem can be transformed into the case where no distributed power sources are connected.

[0053] In the above discussion, the transition resistance has been considered a pure resistor. However, short-circuit faults occurring in real-world problems are not necessarily metallic short circuits. Therefore, this invention considers transition impedances as either inductance or capacitance, and the transition impedance is... In this case, we get the expression:
