However, there are no clear requirements on whether to directly cut off the entire photovoltaic power station, cut off the collector line, or even directly cut off the photovoltaic inverter by the stable control device. Existing stable control devices all directly cut off the entire photovoltaic power station or cut off the collector line. For photovoltaic power stations, the economic losses are relatively large.

[0003] With the construction of a new power system and the large-scale grid connection of photovoltaic power stations, the capacity of a single photovoltaic power station is gradually increasing. And most of the existing photovoltaic power stations adopt string inverters. A photovoltaic array consists of dozens of inverters, that is, dozens of string inverters are connected under one box-type transformer. Although the active power control rate of the inverter is relatively fast, the existing communication between the string inverter and the photovoltaic power station is at the second level, and the communication is slow. It is impossible to directly control the power of the inverter by using the existing communication. If optical fibers are re-laid for communication with the string inverter, the cost is relatively high. Summary of the Invention

[0029] A stable control device for a photovoltaic power station capable of monitoring a photovoltaic array, comprising a processor, a power supply module, a monitoring module, a control instruction module, a network status module, a data storage module, an indicator light / alarm output module, a main switch, a distributed monitoring module, etc. The monitoring module includes signals such as the voltage and current at the grid connection point of the photovoltaic power station, the voltage of the 35kV bus, and the current of each collector line; the control instruction module controls the outgoing line circuit breaker of the photovoltaic power station and the incoming line circuit breakers of each collector line; the distributed monitoring module includes sub-switch 1, sub-switch 2, sub-switch n. The main switch communicates with sub-switch 1, sub-switch 2, sub-switch n through optical fiber communication, and the sub-switch communicates with the relay protection device of the box-type transformer through optical fiber communication.

[0030] The number of sub-switches in the distributed monitoring module is determined according to the specific situation of the photovoltaic power station. The number of sub-switches for monitoring the box-type transformer is half of the number of box-type transformers in the corresponding collector line; the selection of the relay protection device for monitoring between the sub-switch and the box-type transformer can be arbitrarily selected without limitation;

[0031] The processor is connected to the main switch through optical fiber communication;

[0032] The main switch is respectively connected to sub-switch 1, sub-switch 2, sub-switch n through optical fiber communication. Sub-switch 1 is connected to the relay protection devices of box-type transformer 1-1 and box-type transformer 1-2 of collector line 1 through optical fiber communication; Sub-switch 2 is connected to the relay protection devices of box-type transformer 2-1 and box-type transformer 2-n of collector line 2 through optical fiber communication; Sub-switch n is connected to the relay protection devices of box-type transformer n-2 and box-type transformer n-n of collector line n through optical fiber communication.

[0033] Based on the existing relay protection device of the box-type transformer, the processor reads the active power of the photovoltaic array through the main switch, sub-switch 1, 2, n, and issues a control instruction to separate the circuit breaker of the box-type transformer; that is, the purpose of controlling the active power of the photovoltaic array is achieved.

[0034] The processor uses an existing conventional processor; the full-wave Fourier method is used to calculate the fundamental positive-sequence active power at the grid connection point of the photovoltaic power station according to the grid connection point voltage and current, and calculate the fundamental positive-sequence active power of each corresponding collector line according to the 35kV bus voltage and the current of each collector line.

[0035] The power supply module supports 220V AC power supply and ±110V DC power supply.

[0036] The monitoring module can monitor the voltage and current at the grid connection point of the photovoltaic power station, the voltage of the 35kV bus, the current of collector line 1, the current of collector line 2, the current of collector line n, etc.; if there are multiple sections of the 35kV bus in the photovoltaic power station, the voltage of each section of the 35kV bus needs to be collected.

[0041] The usage steps of this control device are as follows:

[0042] Step 1: The processor (1) receives the instruction P for remotely cutting the active power of the PV power station M , or the instruction P for cutting the active power of the PV power station determined by calculation M ;

[0043] Step 2: Calculate that the fundamental positive-sequence active power at the grid connection point of the PV power station is P 总 , and the fundamental positive-sequence active powers of each collector line are P1, P2, P n ;

[0044] Step 3: When the instruction P for cutting the active power M is greater than P 总 , then the entire PV power station is cut off, that is, the processor (1) issues an instruction to disconnect the outgoing circuit breaker of the PV power station through the control instruction module (4);

[0045] Step 4: When the instruction P for cutting the active power M is less than P 总 , and the instruction P for cutting the active power M is greater than the fundamental positive-sequence active power P1, P2, P of a certain collector line n , then a certain collector line or several collector lines are cut off, and for the remaining insufficient active power, the box-type transformer is cut off. Multiple box-type transformers can be cut off;

[0046] When the instruction P for cutting the active power M is less than P 总 , and the instruction P for cutting the active power M is less than the fundamental positive-sequence active powers P1, P2, P of all collector lines n , then the box-type transformer is cut off. Multiple box-type transformers can be cut off, and the box-type transformers of the collector lines can be selected arbitrarily;

[0047] Step 5: The stability control device finishes the judgment.
