Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of substation acquisition, and specifically relates to a single CT current acquisition device applied to the main transformer equipment of a power plant unit. Background Art

[0002] In modern power systems, as a key device, the operation status of the main transformer of a power plant unit directly affects the stability and security of the entire power network. Traditional current acquisition devices often require multiple sets of current transformers to monitor different lines respectively, which not only increases the equipment cost, but also may cause difficulties in maintenance due to installation space limitations.

[0003] The existing main transformer cooler and unit protection share a set of current transformer (CT) circuits, which may cause some potential problems, mainly including:

[0004] 1. Increased load: When designing current transformers, a certain load capacity is usually considered, including the total impedance of devices such as measuring instruments and relays. When the main transformer cooler control circuit and the unit protection circuit share the same set of CTs, their loads will act on the CTs together. If the load of the cooler control equipment is large, it may cause the voltage on the secondary side of the CT to drop, affecting the accuracy of the protection equipment, and even may cause the protection to malfunction or refuse to operate.

[0005] 2. Interference problem: The start-stop operation of the cooler, especially the cooling fan with a motor, etc., may generate electromagnetic interference. This interference may be transmitted to the electronic equipment of the unit protection through the shared CT circuit, causing misjudgment of the protection device or increasing the measurement error, especially more significant in sensitive microcomputer protection systems.

[0006] 3. Maintenance and repair risks: Sharing CT means that when maintaining or repairing the cooler control circuit, it may be necessary to temporarily interrupt the unit protection, and vice versa. This not only increases the operation complexity, but also may affect the timeliness and effectiveness of the protection in case of emergency.

[0007] 4. Fault chain reaction: If a fault occurs in the cooler control system, such as a short circuit or an open circuit, it may directly affect the protection circuit passing through the same CT, resulting in misoperation of the protection, and then may unnecessary cut off the main transformer or other key equipment, affecting the stable operation of the power system.

[0008] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a current acquisition device with high integration and wide monitoring range. Summary of the Utility Model

[0009] The technical problem to be solved by the present utility model is to address the deficiencies in the prior art, and design a single CT current acquisition device applied to the main transformer equipment of a power plant unit.

Only through a set of current transformer systems can the current data acquisition of the main transformer of the power plant unit, its cooling system, and protection system be completed, improving the monitoring efficiency and system reliability.

[0037] The first current transformer is arranged on one phase line of the main power supply line and is directly connected in series to the first current acquisition circuit to achieve the preliminary measurement of the current in the main power supply line.

[0038] The second current transformer and the third current transformer are both arranged on the first current acquisition circuit and are respectively connected in series to the main transformer cooler cabinet acquisition circuit and the unit protection cabinet acquisition circuit to respectively monitor the current conditions of the cooling system and the protection system, thus achieving the comprehensive monitoring of the operating status of the main transformer.

[0040] The utility model integrates the current monitoring functions of the main transformer and its important auxiliary equipment through a single CT system, simplifies the equipment configuration, and reduces the installation and maintenance costs. At the same time, high-precision current transformers are adopted to ensure the accuracy of current data, providing reliable data support for the safety monitoring of the power system. In addition, the design of this device is easy to integrate into existing power facilities, enhancing the scalability and flexibility of the system.
