[0064] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0065] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., used in this application can be used to describe various elements, but these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the first element from the second element. The terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, used in this application, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. The term "multiple" used in this application refers to two or more. The term "and / or" used in this application refers to one of the embodiments, or any combination of multiple embodiments.

[0066] To clearly illustrate the application scenarios of this invention and the shortcomings of existing technologies, the background of power distribution network fault early warning and partial discharge monitoring is first explained. Specifically, the application of power distribution network fault early warning technology can identify potential faults before they occur, significantly reducing the damage caused by faults, improving power supply reliability, and reducing operation and maintenance costs.

[0067] In medium-voltage distribution networks dominated by overhead lines, various devices operate under harsh conditions for extended periods, potentially leading to insulation degradation. Degraded insulation can cause partial discharge (PD), which generates traveling waves that propagate to both sides of the line. PD monitoring devices can be used to monitor these traveling waves in real time and, in conjunction with adjacent PD monitoring devices, achieve dual-end PD ranging. Currently, traveling wave ranging products for medium-voltage distribution networks primarily focus on fault traveling wave ranging. While the traveling wave front start-point identification algorithm of these products can be ported to PD monitoring devices, fault traveling waves are mainly in the 5kHz-100kHz range with significant energy, exhibiting a clear difference from high-frequency interference and sensor noise. PD traveling waves, on the other hand, are primarily in the frequency band above 500kHz, with only one-tenth the energy of fault traveling waves, and are somewhat mixed with high-frequency interference and sensor noise. Directly porting the traveling wave front start-point identification algorithm from fault traveling wave ranging products would result in excessively large start-point identification errors and poor PD ranging performance. Meanwhile, the fault traveling wave only exists when the fault occurs, while the partial discharge traveling wave may persist for a long time. Therefore, if the partial discharge monitoring device runs a traditional wavefront start point identification algorithm, it will cause problems such as poor real-time performance and high power consumption. In addition, current traveling wave ranging devices rely on a backend system for ranging, but the partial discharge traveling wave signal is large and continuous. If it is continuously uploaded to the backend system, the upload volume will be too large, resulting in insufficient real-time performance, easy lag, and increased power consumption.

[0068] The power distribution network fault location method provided in this application can be applied to power distribution network fault location equipment. The power distribution network fault location equipment can be a terminal or a server; the terminal can be, but is not limited to, various personal computers, laptops, smartphones, tablets, drones, low-altitude aircraft, IoT devices, and portable wearable devices. IoT devices can be smart speakers, smart TVs, smart air conditioners, smart vehicle equipment, projection equipment, etc. Portable wearable devices can be smartwatches, smart bracelets, head-mounted devices, etc. Head-mounted devices can be virtual reality (VR) devices, augmented reality (AR) devices, smart glasses, etc. The server can be a standalone physical server, a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server providing cloud computing services.

[0069] Optionally, the terminal can also be a partial discharge monitoring device. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the partial discharge monitoring device consists of a high-pass filter module, a line-mode synthesis and signal amplification module, an A / D sampling module (Analog-to-Digital Sampling Module), a calculation module, and a horizontal communication module. The high-pass filter module filters out interference signals while retaining the main frequency band of the partial discharge traveling wave; the line-mode synthesis and signal amplification module extracts and amplifies the line-mode components of the partial discharge traveling wave to make it more sensitive to partial discharge signals; the A / D sampling module converts analog signals into digital signals for subsequent lower-level computer calculation and processing; the calculation module runs a partial discharge traveling wave wavefront start point identification algorithm based on dual-source sliding window STFT (Short-Time Fourier Transform) (i.e., a distribution network fault location method) to calculate the partial discharge traveling wave wavefront start point and its time-stamped information; the horizontal communication module transmits the time-stamped information of the partial discharge traveling wave wavefront start point corresponding to the partial discharge trigger recording within a fixed time period horizontally.

[0070] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, a method for locating faults in a power distribution network is provided. Taking the application of this method to a server as an example, the method includes:

[0071] Step 201: Obtain the discrete digital signals corresponding to the three-phase voltage signals in the distribution network.

[0072] Among them, the distribution network can be a medium-voltage distribution network mainly composed of overhead lines. The lines and power devices are in harsh outdoor conditions for a long time, which can easily lead to insulation degradation and partial discharge, thereby generating partial discharge traveling waves that propagate along the lines. The three-phase voltage signal can be a continuous analog voltage signal transmitted on the three-phase lines of the distribution network. The discrete digital signal can be a digital sampling sequence with time discreteness and amplitude quantization obtained by performing high-frequency synchronous sampling and quantization encoding of the three-phase voltage signal through an A / D sampling module.

[0073] Optionally, a partial discharge monitoring device can be used to sense and collect continuous analog voltage signals of the three-phase lines of the distribution network in real time. Using the built-in A / D sampling module of the device, the sampling frequency adapted to the high-frequency partial discharge traveling wave is used to perform synchronous high-frequency analog-to-digital conversion on the three-phase analog voltage signals. The continuously changing analog voltage waveform is converted into a sampling data sequence arranged in time sequence and whose amplitude is digitally quantized, thus obtaining the discrete digital signals corresponding to the three-phase voltage signals.

[0074] Step 202: When a partial discharge wave is detected in the distribution network, the first time stamp information when the first fault location device detects the partial discharge wave and the second time stamp information when the second fault location device detects the partial discharge wave are determined based on the discrete digital signal.

[0075] Among them, the partial discharge traveling wave can be a transient traveling wave signal excited by partial discharge of insulation deteriorated devices in the distribution network and propagating to both sides along the line; the first fault location device and the second fault location device can be two partial discharge monitoring and location devices installed at adjacent points on the medium-voltage distribution network line; the first time stamp information can be the standard time stamp information generated by the first fault location device based on the local high-precision clock of the device after identifying the start time of the partial discharge traveling wave front; the second time stamp information can be the standard time stamp information generated by the second fault location device based on the local high-precision clock of the device after identifying the start time of the partial discharge traveling wave front.

[0076] Optionally, the first fault location device and the second fault location device acquire their respective discrete digital signals in real time; the first fault location device and the second fault location device locate the wavefront starting sampling position of the local release wave based on the discrete digital signals in the device; and, in combination with the local clock reference and the sampling interval, convert the identified wavefront starting position into a standard timestamp, and generate the first time stamp information and the second time stamp information respectively.

[0077] Step 203: Perform fault location based on the first time-stamp information and the second time-stamp information to obtain the fault location result of the distribution network.

[0078] The fault location result can be the location information of partial discharge in the distribution network, and the location information represents the straight-line distance between the partial discharge point and the device (such as the first fault location device or the first fault location device) used as a reference point.

[0079] Optionally, the first time stamp information and the second time stamp information are matched in a time sequence to form a combination of time stamp information corresponding to the same partial discharge event; the line transmission distance between the first fault location device and the second fault location device, as well as the standard transmission speed of the partial discharge traveling wave, are retrieved; finally, the line distance of the device with the partial discharge point distance as the reference point is calculated by combining the line distance, the standard transmission speed of the partial discharge traveling wave, and each combination of time stamp information, thus obtaining the fault location result of the distribution network.

[0080] In the aforementioned distribution network fault location method, the three-phase voltage signals of the distribution network are collected and converted into corresponding discrete digital signals. When a partial discharge traveling wave is detected in the distribution network, the first and second fault location devices respectively determine the first and second time-scale information corresponding to the partial discharge traveling wave. Fault location is then performed based on the first and second time-scale information, and the final distribution network fault location result is output. This method alleviates the shortcomings of traditional methods that cannot accurately locate the partial discharge location in the distribution network due to the large difference in frequency band characteristics between the fault traveling wave and the partial discharge traveling wave, and insufficient algorithm adaptability, thus significantly improving the accuracy of partial discharge fault location in the distribution network.

[0081] In an exemplary embodiment, when a partial discharge wave is detected in the distribution network, the first time stamp information of the first fault location device when the partial discharge wave is detected is determined based on the discrete digital signal, including: determining a first amplitude corresponding to the first digital signal and determining a second amplitude corresponding to the second digital signal; if the first amplitude is not less than the second amplitude, then when the partial discharge wave is detected, the first time stamp information corresponding to the wavefront start position of the partial discharge wave is determined based on the first digital signal; if the first amplitude is less than the second amplitude, then when the partial discharge wave is detected, the first time stamp information corresponding to the wavefront start position of the partial discharge wave is determined based on the second digital signal.

[0082] The discrete digital signal includes a first digital signal and a second digital signal; the first digital signal is obtained by high-frequency sampling of the difference between the first phase voltage and the second phase voltage in the distribution network; the second digital signal is obtained by high-frequency sampling of the difference between the third phase voltage and the second phase voltage in the distribution network; the first amplitude is the maximum signal amplitude of the waveform corresponding to the first digital signal; the second amplitude is the maximum signal amplitude of the waveform corresponding to the second digital signal.

[0083] Optionally, determine the wavefront starting point to analyze the channel, and compare the maximum values ​​of line mode 1 (i.e., the first digital signal) and line mode 2 (i.e., the second digital signal). (i.e., the first amplitude) and (i.e., the second value), if Then, taking line mode 1 as the starting point of the wavefront to analyze the channel, the calculation is performed. Otherwise, take line modulus 2 as the starting point of the wavefront to analyze the channel and calculate... .

[0084] Optionally, the starting point of the local release waveguide can be converted into time stamp information. The conversion method is as follows:

[0085]

[0086] in, The time stamp information of the starting point of the waveguide for the release of the bureau (i.e., the first time stamp information). The trigger time for the waveform file. This represents the total number of crystal oscillators in the device.

[0087] In this embodiment, by performing differential calculations on the voltages between different phases of the distribution network and high-frequency sampling to form two independent line-mode discrete digital signals, the electromagnetic coupling between phases and power frequency common-mode interference are effectively suppressed, highlighting the effective characteristics of high-frequency weak-energy partial discharge traveling waves. By comparing the maximum amplitude of the two digital signals, the signal channel with more significant partial discharge characteristics and stronger anti-interference ability is adaptively selected, alleviating the limitations of the traditional single fixed signal channel. Based on the selected signal, the starting position of the partial discharge traveling wavefront is identified and time stamp information is generated, effectively reducing the identification error caused by noise and signal aliasing, and improving the accuracy and stability of wavefront positioning and time stamp generation.

[0088] In an exemplary embodiment, determining the first time stamp information corresponding to the wavefront start position of the partial discharge wave based on the first digital signal includes: extracting a digital signal containing the partial discharge wave from the first digital signal to obtain an effective digital signal; performing time-frequency feature analysis on the effective digital signal to obtain the wavefront start position corresponding to the partial discharge wave; and determining the first time stamp information corresponding to the wavefront start position of the partial discharge wave based on the wavefront start position and the timing information corresponding to the effective digital signal.

[0089] Among them, the effective digital signal can be a segment of discrete digital signal containing the complete waveform of the partial discharge event, which is saved by triggering the waveform recording action when a partial discharge event is detected; the wavefront start position can be the sampling point position where the energy of the partial discharge traveling wave waveform begins to jump abruptly; the timing information can be the high-frequency sampling interval, sampling timing reference, and local crystal oscillator clock scale information corresponding to the effective digital signal.

[0090] Optionally, from the selected first digital signal, a discrete digital signal segment containing the complete waveform of the partial discharge event is obtained, which is saved by triggering the waveform recording action when the partial discharge event is detected; i.e., the effective digital signal; time-frequency feature analysis is performed on the effective digital signal, and the waveform change law of the partial discharge traveling wave is identified by the joint time-frequency features, thereby identifying the wavefront start position corresponding to the partial discharge traveling wave; the inherent sampling interval and timing reference of the effective digital signal are obtained, and time conversion is performed by combining the wavefront start position with the local clock of the equipment to determine the first time stamp information corresponding to the partial discharge traveling wave.

[0091] In this embodiment, effective digital signals are obtained by truncating local waveforms, which effectively reduces the computational power consumption and data transmission load of the fault location equipment. At the same time, the time-frequency feature analysis method is used to adapt to the signal characteristics of high-frequency weak energy partial discharge waves, accurately identifying the starting position of the partial discharge wavefront. Then, the sampling timing information is combined to accurately convert and generate time stamp information, reducing the error of wavefront identification and time stamp conversion.

[0092] In an exemplary embodiment, time-frequency feature analysis is performed on the effective digital signal to obtain the wavefront start position corresponding to the partial discharge traveling wave. This includes: applying a sliding window to the effective digital signal based on a pre-set window length and sliding step size to obtain multiple signal windows; performing a discrete Fourier transform on the digital signal within each signal window to obtain a complex sequence corresponding to each signal window; determining the time-frequency amplitude sequence based on the magnitude of each element in each complex sequence; locating the monotonically increasing start position in the time-frequency amplitude sequence based on the maximum amplitude value and the position corresponding to the maximum amplitude value; determining the candidate sampling point interval corresponding to the wavefront start position based on the start position, window length, and sliding step size; and searching for waveform abrupt change points in the effective digital signal within the candidate sampling point interval, and using the sampling point position corresponding to the waveform abrupt change point as the wavefront start position corresponding to the partial discharge traveling wave.

[0093] Here, the window length can be the number of sampling points contained in a single signal window that is preset; the sliding step size can be the number of sampling points between the starting positions of two adjacent signal windows during the sliding windowing process; the signal window can be each independent time-domain sampled data segment obtained after sliding windowing; the complex sequence can be an ordered set of complex numbers obtained after a single signal window undergoes a discrete Fourier transform, with each complex number carrying both signal amplitude and phase information; the modulus can be the modulus of a single complex number in the complex sequence, representing the absolute magnitude of the signal energy; and the time-frequency amplitude sequence can be obtained by sequentially processing each complex sequence. After obtaining the magnitude of the elements, the amplitude sequence is formed by arranging them in the original time sequence to reflect the energy changes in the time and frequency dimensions of the signal. The starting position can be the starting point where the time and frequency amplitudes start from the stable baseline and continuously rise, entering a monotonically increasing trend, and trace back from the position of the largest amplitude. The candidate sampling point interval can be the range of sampling point numbers that may exist in the effective digital signal at the wavefront starting point. The waveform abrupt change point can be the sampling point in the effective digital signal where the amplitude changes instantaneously or the waveform shows obvious distortion. The sampling point position can be the corresponding number position of the sampling point in the time sequence of the effective digital signal.

[0094] Optionally, upon triggering waveform recording, a windowed DFT operation is performed starting from the first point of the waveform file (i.e., the effective digital signal). Assume the total number of points in the waveform file is... The window length is The sliding step size is The total number of windows (i.e., multiple signal windows) constructed in this way. for:

[0122] Then define the first The point is a significant abrupt change point, i.e., a waveform abrupt change point.

[0123] If the interval If there is a clear mutation point, then the clear mutation point is denoted as the first one. This point is the starting point of the local broadcast waveguide; otherwise, it is counted. Then the first The point is the starting point of the release waveguide.

[0124] In this embodiment, by combining sliding windowing with discrete Fourier transform to perform time-frequency joint feature analysis on the effective digital signal, the influence of high-frequency interference and sensor noise on the masking effect of high-frequency weak energy partial discharge wave is effectively mitigated. At the same time, a coarse-fine combined positioning method is adopted, which first traces the starting point of energy increase, then reverse-engineers the candidate sampling interval, and finally performs a local fine search for waveform change points. This reduces the amount of computational data and can accurately capture the weak jump characteristics of the partial discharge wave, effectively reducing the identification deviation of the wavefront starting position.

[0125] In an exemplary embodiment, fault location is performed based on first time-stamp information and second time-stamp information to obtain fault location results of the distribution network, including: matching the first time-stamp information and the second time-stamp information to obtain at least one combination of time-stamp information; determining at least one fault location information based on the transmission line distance between adjacent devices, the traveling wave transmission speed, and each combination of time-stamp information; and determining the fault location results of the distribution network based on the average distance corresponding to each fault location information.

[0126] Among them, the time stamp information combination can be a pair of first time stamp information and second time stamp information after matching, which serves as the input data pair for a single fault location; the transmission line distance can be the known physical line length of the power distribution line between the first fault location device and the second fault location device; the traveling wave transmission speed can be the preset wave speed of the partial discharge traveling wave propagating in the overhead line of the power distribution network; and the fault location information can be the distance position of the fault point on the line corresponding to a single time stamp combination.

[0127] Optionally, the first fault location device and the second fault location device can send the first time stamp information and the second time stamp information to the server respectively. The server calculates the fault location information based on the first time stamp information and the second time stamp information, and then takes the average value of each fault location information to determine the fault location result of the distribution network.

[0128] Optionally, the fault location result of the distribution network can be calculated using either the first fault location device or the second fault location device. Specifically, the partial discharge monitoring device (i.e., the first fault location device) sends the time stamp information of the starting point of the partial discharge traveling wavefront corresponding to the partial discharge trigger recording within the specified time period to the adjacent partial discharge monitoring device (i.e., the second fault location device) via horizontal communication at fixed intervals. Assuming there are a total of... The first time-stamped information (i.e., the first time-stamped information) is denoted as... , ... After receiving the time stamp information, adjacent devices check the time stamp information of the starting point of the traveling wavefront of the partial discharge (PD) corresponding to their own partial discharge trigger recordings within the same time period, assuming they have a total of [number missing]. The first time-stamped information (i.e., the second time-stamped information) is denoted as... , ... Iterate through the two sets of time stamp information one by one to find the time stamps that satisfy the following formula.

[0129]

[0130] in, Let the time delay be a fixed value. Assume that after the above steps, a total of [values] are found. The time-stamped information that satisfies the above formula, i.e., the successfully matched time-stamped information (i.e., the combination of time-stamped information), are denoted as follows: , ... .

[0131] The distance measurement performed on this set of time-stamped information pairs can be expressed as:

[0132]

[0133] in, This indicates the distance between the partial discharge point and device 1 (i.e., fault location information). This indicates the distance of the transmission line between device 1 and device 2 (i.e., the transmission line distance). The value represents the propagation speed of the traveling wave along the transmission line (i.e., the traveling wave propagation speed). The average of the two-end ranging results is calculated, and the final ranging result is output. , can be represented as:

[0134]

[0135] In this embodiment, by performing event matching on the dual-end time stamp information to form an effective time stamp combination, the accuracy of ranging data pairing is ensured. Then, by combining the line distance between devices and the traveling wave transmission speed, the fault location is calculated group by group, and the average value of multiple fault locations is calculated. This effectively alleviates the ranging fluctuations caused by wavefront identification error, sampling timing deviation and on-site electromagnetic interference, and improves the accuracy of partial discharge fault location in medium-voltage distribution networks.

[0144] in, Sampling point number Let be the sampling interval. Using the above equation, the high-frequency discrete linear mode signal can be obtained. (i.e., the first digital signal) (i.e., the second digital signal).

[0145] In this embodiment, by performing phase-to-phase difference calculation on the three-phase voltage signals of the distribution network to construct two independent line-mode signals, it is possible to effectively suppress three-phase common-mode interference and phase-to-phase electromagnetic coupling interference, highlighting the effective characteristics of high-frequency weak-energy partial discharge traveling waves. At the same time, the two line-mode signals are sampled at high frequency to form dual-channel discrete digital signals, which not only completely preserves the high-frequency waveform information of the partial discharge traveling waves, but also constructs redundant signal channels to facilitate subsequent adaptive optimization analysis, reducing the impact of noise and interference on partial discharge feature extraction.
