Description

Technical Field

[0002] DC technology based on SLCC (Multi-Source Adaptive Commutation Converter) has become a key solution for adapting to ultra-high voltage DC transmission in new power systems due to its integration of the large capacity and low loss of LCC and the flexible control characteristics of VSC. It has significant advantages in reducing the risk of commutation failure and improving reactive power management efficiency, and is currently a research hotspot in the field of power electronics.

[0003] The SLCC (Single-Module Converter) is composed of multiple coupled modules, including the LCC valve group, VSC submodule, and SVG branch, with close electrical connections between them. The patent CN202411857249, entitled "An Overvoltage Suppression Method for SLCC Converters," suppresses fault overvoltages by optimizing control strategies, improving system transient stability. However, this technology only focuses on suppressing the single fault of overvoltage and lacks a fault detection and tracing mechanism. It cannot determine whether the overvoltage is caused by LCC commutation failure, SVG reactive power surge, or VSC submodule breakdown. Maintenance personnel still need to manually locate the fault source, which can take several hours. The aforementioned existing technologies do not overcome the limitations of "single-module local detection" and lack adaptability to the multi-module topology of SLCCs, failing to meet the engineering requirements for system-level collaborative detection and accurate tracing.
