Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of power system protection technology, specifically relating to an adaptive setting method and system for leakage current protection based on ground capacitance parameter identification. Background Technology
[0002] In urban and rural low-voltage power distribution networks, residual current devices (RCDs) are the first line of defense for protecting residents' personal safety and the stability of electrical equipment. By monitoring the leakage current in the line in real time and triggering tripping actions, they can effectively prevent safety accidents such as electric shock, equipment insulation damage, and electrical fires, playing an irreplaceable and significant role in ensuring the safety of electricity use for residents. my country's low-voltage power distribution networks generally adopt a three-level protection architecture of "main protection - branch protection - household protection." Each level of protector needs to coordinate precise settings to isolate the fault point nearby, ensuring that a local fault does not affect the overall operation of the power grid.
[0003] However, the core settings of traditional residual current devices (RCDs) widely used today, such as operating current and operating time, rely entirely on manual adjustment. The adjustment results are highly dependent on the operator's experience level; different personnel may interpret the parameters and design the coordination logic for the same power grid differently, amplifying the risk of setting errors. More seriously, incorrect setting directly disrupts the coordination logic of the three-level RCD system, inducing cascading tripping. When a leakage fault occurs in a line, the lower-level protector, which should operate first, fails to operate due to setting mismatch, allowing the fault current to continue spreading to the upper-level protector, causing it to trip erroneously. This cascading tripping phenomenon expands the power outage area originally limited to a single household or branch line to the entire residential community or even a whole area, affecting the normal power supply of dozens to thousands of households, not only triggering public complaints but also causing economic losses to commercial users. Simultaneously, cascading tripping disrupts the hierarchical characteristics of fault occurrence, requiring maintenance personnel to check multiple levels of lines and equipment one by one, significantly prolonging fault location and power restoration time, and severely reducing the power supply reliability of the distribution network.
[0004] To address the core pain points of traditional manual setting mode, such as complex setting, easy error, and frequent over-level tripping, there is an urgent need to develop a new leakage current protection setting technology that can automatically adapt to the power grid conditions. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is to address the shortcomings of the prior art by providing an adaptive setting method and system for leakage current protection based on the identification of ground capacitance parameters. By accurately sensing the core characteristic parameter of line-to-ground capacitance, the method enables automatic calculation and dynamic coordination of the settings of leakage current protection devices at all levels. This solves the technical problems of safety and operation and maintenance caused by the defects of manual setting, and avoids the problems of protection devices failing to operate or operating falsely due to the complexity and error of manual setting.
[0006] The present invention adopts the following technical solution: The adaptive setting method for leakage current protection based on ground capacitance parameter identification includes the following steps: When the residual current device (RCD) is closed, the RCD is controlled to first close one phase of the live wire and disconnect the other two phases of the live wire and the neutral wire. The residual current after the live wire of one phase is closed is detected. When the preset steady-state condition is met, the capacitance to ground of the line is calculated based on the detected residual current and voltage parameters. Based on the calculated capacitance to ground, the operating current threshold and operating time of the residual current device are automatically set.
[0007] Preferably, the preset steady-state condition is: Residual current difference between two adjacent waves The effective value of the residual current of the next cycle satisfy .
[0008] Preferably, before detecting the residual current and obtaining the voltage parameters, the method further includes: A voltage transformer is installed between the live wire and the neutral wire on the power supply side of the leakage current device. Voltage transformers are installed on the load side between the other two live wires and the target live wire, and between the neutral wire and the target live wire on the load side of the leakage current protection device.

[0011] in, The residual current value is the actual measured value of the residual current transformer inside the leakage protection device. These are the voltages to ground of each line on the load side of the residual current device (RCD). This refers to the capacitance to ground of the downstream circuit of the leakage protection device. This is the angular frequency of the power grid.
[0012] Preferably, the automatic setting of the operating time of the residual current device based on the calculated capacitance to ground is specifically as follows: When the capacitance to ground satisfy At μF, the action time is set to 0s; When the capacitance to ground satisfy At μF, the action time is set to 0.1s; When the capacitance to ground satisfy At μF, the action time is set to 0.2s.
[0013] Preferably, the automatic setting of the operating current threshold of the residual current device based on the calculated ground capacitance is specifically as follows: When the capacitance to ground satisfy At μF, the operating current threshold is set to 50mA; When the capacitance to ground satisfy At μF, the operating current threshold is set to 200mA; When the capacitance to ground satisfy At 6μF, the operating current threshold is set to 500mA.
[0014] Preferably, after calculating the capacitance to ground, the leakage current protector is controlled to close the other two live wires and the neutral wire.
[0015] Preferably, the live wire is phase A.
[0016] Secondly, embodiments of the present invention provide a leakage current protection adaptive setting system based on ground capacitance parameter identification, comprising: The control module is used to control the residual current device (RCD) to close one phase of the live wire first and disconnect the other two phases of the live wire and the neutral wire when the RCD is closed. The detection module is used to detect the residual current after one phase of the live wire is closed; The calculation module is used to calculate the line's capacitance to ground based on the detected residual current and voltage parameters when the preset steady-state conditions are met. The setting module is used to automatically set the operating current threshold and operating time of the leakage current protector based on the calculated capacitance to ground.
[0017] Thirdly, a computer device includes a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein the processor, when executing the computer program, implements the steps of the above-described adaptive setting method for leakage protection based on ground capacitance parameter identification.
[0018] Fourthly, embodiments of the present invention provide a computer-readable storage medium including a computer program, which, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of the above-described adaptive setting method for leakage protection based on ground capacitance parameter identification.
[0019] Fifthly, a chip includes a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein the processor, when executing the computer program, implements the steps of the above-described adaptive setting method for leakage protection based on ground capacitance parameter identification.
[0020] In a sixth aspect, embodiments of the present invention provide an electronic device, including a computer program, which, when executed by the electronic device, implements the steps of the above-described adaptive setting method for leakage protection based on ground capacitance parameter identification.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects: An adaptive setting method for leakage current protection based on ground capacitance parameter identification achieves adaptive setting through single-phase closing, residual current detection, and capacitance parameter calculation. This method overcomes the limitations of traditional manual setting by automatically identifying the protection level using the stable parameter of ground capacitance, avoiding setting errors caused by human factors. This method can automatically adjust protection settings according to actual line parameters, ensuring coordinated operation of the three-level protection and effectively preventing cascading tripping. Furthermore, it is universally applicable, adaptable to distribution networks of different sizes, and greatly improves the accuracy and reliability of the protection.
[0022] Furthermore, by using quantitative indicators to ensure that the system has reached a stable state during measurement, the influence of transient processes on the measurement results is avoided, thus improving the accuracy of capacitance parameter identification. This judgment condition is simple and effective, easy to implement in protection devices, and ensures the reliability of adaptive tuning.
[0023] Furthermore, through a well-planned sensor arrangement, the voltage parameters required for calculation can be accurately obtained, providing a data foundation for precise calculation of the capacitance to ground. This configuration approach considers both measurement accuracy and the feasibility of engineering implementation.
[0024] Furthermore, through mathematical transformations, the voltage to ground of each line was derived using the actual measured voltage differences, solving the technical challenge of directly measuring the voltage to ground. The calculations are simple and the results are accurate, laying a solid foundation for subsequent capacitance calculations.
[0025] Furthermore, based on Kirchhoff's current law, a precise mathematical relationship between residual current and ground capacitance was established, enabling accurate calculation of the line's ground capacitance parameters. The calculation process is simple and easy to implement in protection devices.
[0026] Furthermore, a stepped setting logic is adopted, dividing the system into three intervals based on the size of the ground capacitance, corresponding to different operating times (0s, 0.1s, 0.2s), precisely matching the selectivity requirements of the three-level protection architecture of main protection-branch protection-customer protection. Smaller capacitance corresponds to smaller line scale (last protection), with the shortest operating time, ensuring rapid isolation of faults nearby; larger capacitance corresponds to larger line scale (main protection), with a longer operating time, avoiding false tripping. This rule is simple, clear, and highly operable, requiring no manual adjustment, and the setting time is compatible with existing three-level protection standards. It not only solves the traditional setting mismatch problem but also seamlessly integrates into the existing distribution network system, ensuring the continuity and stability of power grid operation.
[0027] Furthermore, in coordination with the operating time setting logic, three intervals are defined based on the ground capacitance, corresponding to operating current thresholds of 50mA, 200mA, and 500mA, achieving dual selectivity in current and time. The last protection corresponds to a small capacitance and a small current threshold, enabling rapid response to minor leakage faults; the main protection corresponds to a large capacitance and a large current threshold, avoiding non-fault-related tripping. This rule aligns with the fault response requirements of different levels of protection in the distribution network, and the current threshold settings comply with national low-voltage distribution network safety standards. It ensures the safety of personnel and equipment while effectively reducing the probability of false tripping and failure to trip, solving the core pain point of the mismatch between traditional manually set current thresholds and line scale.
[0028] Furthermore, while ensuring the completion of adaptive tuning, the system can be restored to normal operation in a timely manner, minimizing the impact on users' power consumption, demonstrating good practicality and user experience.
[0029] Furthermore, phase A, as a commonly used reference phase in low-voltage distribution networks, has stable voltage and is easy to acquire. Selecting phase A as the first phase to close the circuit can improve the consistency and reliability of parameter acquisition. This limitation is not an excessive narrowing of the protection scope, but rather provides clear support for the instruction manual by specifying concrete implementation methods. It also facilitates device design and commissioning for engineers, improving operability and scalability.
[0030] It is understood that the beneficial effects of the second to sixth aspects mentioned above can be found in the relevant descriptions in the first aspect mentioned above, and will not be repeated here.
[0031] In summary, the method of this invention breaks through the limitations of traditional manual setting by using single-phase closing and capacitor identification, ensures setting accuracy with quantitative standards and precise algorithms, adapts to the three-level protection architecture through a tiered rule system, and realizes the implementation of the technology through a modular system, comprehensively solving problems such as setting mismatch and over-level tripping, while taking into account both reliability and practicality.

[0041] The accompanying drawings illustrate various structural schematic diagrams according to embodiments disclosed in this invention. These drawings are not to scale, and some details have been enlarged for clarity, and some details may have been omitted. The shapes of the various regions and layers shown in the drawings, as well as their relative sizes and positional relationships, are merely exemplary and may deviate from reality due to manufacturing tolerances or technical limitations.

[0042] Low-voltage leakage protection devices are generally configured according to a three-level principle, with different levels of protection devices ensuring selectivity through leakage current settings and operating delays. Since the scale of the downstream lines varies depending on the level of the protection device, higher-level protection devices have larger downstream line scales and greater line-to-ground capacitance. This invention provides an adaptive setting method for leakage protection based on ground capacitance parameter identification. It uses the magnitude of the line's ground capacitance to infer the installation location of the protection device, and then automatically sets the protection device's settings, thus avoiding the problems of complex and error-prone manual setting that can lead to protection device malfunctions or failures to operate.
[0043] According to Kirchhoff's Current Law, during normal operation of a single-phase system, the load currents on the live wire and neutral wire are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, with a vector sum of zero. However, due to the distributed capacitance to ground and the direct grounding of the transformer neutral point, the voltage to ground of the live wire is approximately 220V, while the voltage to ground of the neutral wire is approximately 0V. Therefore, a portion of the current in the live wire will flow into the ground through the distributed capacitance and eventually to the transformer neutral point. The neutral wire, due to its very low voltage to ground, has almost no capacitance current to ground. Thus, a certain residual current exists during normal operation of a single-phase system. Its magnitude depends on the line size, and the installation level of the protection system can be determined by the magnitude of the leakage current during normal operation. This allows for automatic adjustment of the leakage current and operating time.
[0044] During normal operation of a three-phase system, although there is a capacitive current to ground, theoretically, these currents can cancel each other out because the three-phase voltages are symmetrical and the line-to-ground capacitance parameters are basically the same. The residual current that occurs in actual operation is mainly caused by the asymmetry of the line-to-ground parameters. However, this parameter asymmetry varies greatly under different operating conditions and lacks regularity; therefore, the residual current during normal operation of a three-phase system cannot be used as a basis for determining the protection level.
[0045] To address the above problems, this invention proposes to adjust the structure of the traditional three-phase switch in a residual current device (RCD) to phase-by-phase switching. When the RCD is closed, one phase of the live wire is closed first, while the other two phases of the live wire and the neutral wire are all disconnected. After a delay to allow the system to reach a steady state, the residual current is sampled and calculated, and then all other contacts are closed. The residual current measured by the RCD after closing one phase is the ground capacitance current of all downstream lines of the protection device. Using the magnitude of this capacitance current, the ground distributed capacitance of the downstream lines of the protection device can be calculated, thereby inferring the size of the downstream lines and the protection device's level, and thus automatically adjusting the leakage current and operating time.
[0046] Please see Figure 1 The present invention provides an adaptive setting method for leakage protection based on ground capacitance parameter identification, comprising the following steps: S1. A voltage transformer is installed between phase A and the neutral line on the power supply side of the residual current device (RCD). Voltage transformers are installed between phase A and phases B, C, and N on the load side of the RCD. A residual current transformer is installed on the power supply side of the RCD.
[0047] S2. When the residual current device (RCD) closing button is pressed, phase A is closed first. When equation (1) is satisfied, the distributed capacitance of the downstream line of the protection device is calculated based on the voltage measured by the sensor and the residual current value.
[0048] (1) in, The difference in residual current between two adjacent wave cycles. This is the effective value of the residual current for the next cycle.
[0049] S3. Calculate the voltage to ground of each line in the residual current device (RCD) load test based on the voltage value measured by the voltage transformer. The calculation method is as follows: The voltage measurement value of the voltage transformer on the load side of the residual current device (RCD) can be expressed as: (2) Simplifying equation (2), we get: (3) in, The voltage between the live wire and the neutral wire of phase A, measured on the power supply side of the residual current device (RCD), is low due to the low voltage. The system neutral point is directly grounded, and the three-phase loads are basically symmetrical. Therefore, the voltage drop from the protection installation point to the transformer neutral line can be ignored. It is assumed that the voltage of phase A live wire to the neutral line measured on the power supply side of the leakage protection device is the voltage of phase A live wire to ground. , , These are the voltages of phase B, phase C, and neutral to phase A measured on the load side of the leakage protection device. , , These are the voltages to ground for phase B, phase C, and the neutral wire, respectively.
[0050] S4. Based on the measured values of ground voltage and residual current of each line on the load side of the residual current device (RCD) calculated in step S3, calculate the ground capacitance of the downstream line of the RCD. The calculation method is as follows: The residual current measurement value of the leakage protection device can be expressed as: (4) Therefore, the capacitance to ground of the three-phase line can be calculated as follows: (5) in, The residual current value is the actual measured value of the residual current transformer inside the leakage protection device. These are the voltages to ground of each line on the load side of the residual current device (RCD). This refers to the capacitance to ground of the downstream circuit of the leakage protection device. This is the angular frequency of the power grid.
[0051] S5. Save the calculation results of the line-to-ground distributed capacitance in step S4, and close all other contacts of the leakage protection device to meet the user's power needs.
[0052] S6. Determine the protection setting value based on the line-to-ground distributed capacitance calculated in step S4. The higher the protection level, the larger the residual current setting value and the longer the operating time.
[0053] The adaptive motion time tuning method is as follows: (6) in, The delay time for each level of leakage protection is measured in seconds. To protect the ground capacitance of downstream lines, the unit is... The action time setting values for each level of leakage protection should be set with reference to the existing setting values for the three-level leakage protection.
[0054] The adaptive operating current setting method is as follows: (7) in, The operating current threshold for each level of leakage protection device, in units of , To protect the ground capacitance of downstream lines, the unit is... The operating current setting values for each level of leakage protection circuit breaker should be set with reference to the existing setting values for the three-level leakage protection circuit breaker.

Specifically, the leakage current protection adaptive setting system based on ground capacitance parameter identification includes a control module, a detection module, a calculation module, and a setting module.
[0056] The control module is used to control the residual current device (RCD) to close one phase of the live wire and disconnect the other two phases of the live wire and the neutral wire when the RCD is closed. The detection module is used to detect the residual current after one phase of the live wire is closed; The calculation module is used to calculate the line's capacitance to ground based on the detected residual current and voltage parameters when the preset steady-state conditions are met. The setting module is used to automatically set the operating current threshold and operating time of the leakage current protector based on the calculated capacitance to ground.

[0075] Simulation verification To verify the correctness of the proposed low-voltage distribution network leakage protection method, a system was built as follows: Figure 2 The experimental model of the AC distribution network is shown. In this model, the transformer adopts the D / Yn11 connection method, the line-to-ground capacitance parameter is set to 0.1uF / km, and the resistance and inductance per kilometer of line are set to 0.7Ω and 0.6mH, respectively. The A-phase switch is controlled to close at 0.9s, and all switches are closed at 1.0s.
[0076] Figure 2The model, from top to bottom, includes a 10kV high-voltage side, a D / Yn11 type step-down transformer, a 400V low-voltage busbar, three-level leakage current protection nodes (main protection, branch protection, and household protection), and load units. The transformer neutral point is directly grounded, conforming to the grounding specifications of low-voltage distribution networks. Each level of protection node is connected in series with the leakage current protection device described in this invention, which incorporates a voltage transformer, a residual current transformer, and a control module. The line section is labeled with the distributed parameters of capacitance, resistance, and inductance to ground. The load units adopt a mixed configuration of three-phase balanced loads and single-phase loads to simulate actual user power consumption scenarios. This model fully reproduces the topology of the three-level protection architecture of main protection-branch protection-household protection, and can accurately simulate the power grid operation status under different line lengths and load conditions, providing a realistic test environment for the verification of technical solutions.
[0077] Simulation results are as follows Figure 3 As shown, the horizontal axis represents time (in seconds), and the vertical axis represents the effective value of the residual current (in mA). The waveform clearly presents three key stages: 0~0.9s is the initial state, all switches are open, and the residual current is 0; at 0.9s, the A-phase switch is closed according to the method of this invention, while other phases and the neutral line switch remain open, and the residual current rises rapidly with slight fluctuations; this stage is the charging process of the line capacitor; from 0.9 to 1.0s, the fluctuation of the residual current gradually decreases, and at 0.95s, the steady-state condition of |ΔI / I| < 10% is met, and the waveform tends to be stable; at this time, the collected residual current is the line-to-ground capacitance current; at 1.0s... When all other phase and neutral line switches are closed, the residual current drops to near zero, and the system enters normal operation. When the three-phase voltage and line-to-ground parameters are completely symmetrical, the residual current transformer will only output current after a single-phase switch is closed. This current is caused by the line-to-ground capacitance, and therefore can reflect the size of the line. This waveform verifies that the line-to-ground capacitance current can be effectively collected after a single-phase switch is closed, and the determination of steady-state conditions is accurate and reliable, providing stable data support for capacitance calculation. This proves that the method of this invention can accurately capture the characteristic parameters of the line-to-ground capacitance.
[0078] By continuously adjusting the line length and simulating different operating conditions, the adaptive setting effect of the leakage current protection device was tested, thereby comprehensively verifying the effectiveness and reliability of the protection setting method in multiple scenarios. The experimental results are shown in Table 1: Table 1. Identification results of line-to-ground parameters and protection setting information
[0079] The experimental results above show that the capacitor identification is accurate. The calculated value of the capacitance to ground corresponding to different line lengths has an error of less than 3% compared with the theoretical value, which proves that the design of single-phase closing and steady-state judgment can effectively eliminate interference and accurately capture capacitor characteristics. The setting results are accurate, and the operating current and time strictly match the three-level protection level according to the capacitance range, with no setting mismatch. It has a fast response speed, taking only 0.1 seconds from single-phase closing to completion of setting, which will not affect the user's normal power supply; It has strong adaptability. Within the capacitance range of 0.5~10μF (covering all scenarios from the last protection to the main protection), the setting results all meet expectations, proving that the technical solution can adapt to distribution networks of different scales. Using a single-phase closing method can accurately identify the line's ground parameters, thereby automatically setting the operating current and operating time of the leakage current protection device, which has certain practical value.
[0080] In summary, this invention, a method and system for adaptive setting of leakage current protection based on ground capacitance parameter identification, completely changes the traditional setting mode that relies on manual experience. By automatically identifying the line's ground capacitance parameter, it achieves accurate adaptive setting of protection values, fundamentally avoiding setting errors caused by human factors. Secondly, this invention effectively solves the long-standing problem of cascading tripping in distribution networks. Through scientific hierarchical setting rules, it ensures the coordinated operation of the three protection stages, greatly improving power supply reliability. In practical applications, this invention can significantly shorten setting time, reduce operation and maintenance costs, and improve work efficiency. Furthermore, this method has broad adaptability and can be applied to distribution networks of different sizes and structures, providing important technical support for the construction of smart distribution networks. Simulation results fully demonstrate the effectiveness and reliability of the method, demonstrating significant promotional value.
