Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of voltage transformer metering inaccuracy identification technology, and more specifically, to an online identification method for distribution network voltage transformer metering inaccuracy. Background Technology

[0002] In 10kV distribution network systems, voltage transformers are core equipment for energy metering, and their errors and operating status directly affect power supply reliability and metering fairness. Traditional periodic calibration cannot detect sudden errors in a timely manner, which leads to equipment with excessive errors continuing to operate for extended periods. This not only causes energy metering deviations but may also lead to more serious safety accidents due to equipment deterioration. Transformer errors are affected by load and temperature coupling. This multi-factor coupling makes it difficult to describe the error law of voltage transformers using a simple linear model, placing extremely high demands on the complexity and adaptability of error assessment models. Furthermore, establishing an accurate error assessment model requires acquiring a large amount of equipment operating data covering different loads and temperature conditions. However, some older distribution network lines lack comprehensive sensing and monitoring equipment, making data acquisition difficult and lacking in completeness. This hinders the effective training and verification of error assessment models, further increasing the difficulty of implementing error assessment technology in actual distribution network systems.
