Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of circuit control, and in particular relates to a single mutual inductor high-precision current measurement and protection device. Background Art
[0002] Existing intelligent electronic molded case circuit breakers typically use two sets of current transformers for current sampling: one set is for protection and power supply, and the other is for high-precision measurement. Due to relevant national standards, the protection transformer, in addition to providing measurement functions, also needs to measure current to provide power for the electronic controller to operate properly. Therefore, the protection current transformer cannot provide high-precision current measurement. With the development of the power Internet of Things, precise measurement of electricity consumption information at all levels is required. The measurement accuracy of various electricity parameters within the rated current range must be no less than 0.5%. To meet this requirement, independent high-precision measurement transformers are generally used to accurately measure current signals within the rated current range, providing accurate electricity consumption data for intelligent power management. In addition, as a current sampling device, the current transformer is also a power device. During normal operation, it consumes a certain amount of power and generates heat energy. This can increase the temperature of the circuit breaker during normal operation and, in severe cases, reduce its operating performance.
[0003] To this end, a current measurement and protection solution using a single transformer has been designed. For example, patent application number: 202221772552.0 discloses a measurement and protection device for an electrical switch. The device comprises at least a controller, a primary current conductive circuit, and a current transformer. The controller includes at least a rectifier and sampling circuit, a power supply circuit, a current signal processing circuit, and a microprocessor. The current transformer is composed of a secondary coil wound on a magnetic core. The secondary AC current signal of the current transformer is processed by the rectifier and sampling circuit and amplified by the current signal processing circuit to form a corresponding secondary current full-wave three-segment waveform. The three-segment current waveform signal is input to the microprocessor for high-precision current and / or power measurement, current overload protection, and fault current transient protection. The current transformer also provides the output energy of the secondary coil to the power supply circuit through the rectifier and sampling circuit, converting it into power sufficient for the controller to operate. This solution can achieve current measurement and protection using a single transformer, but it has the following problems: 1. The load linearity of the current sampling circuit in the existing solution cannot be guaranteed, which means that the current measurement accuracy cannot meet the design requirements.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a single-transformer high-precision current measurement and protection device, which is arranged between the primary circuit line and the load, and includes a current sampling circuit 1, a rectification and current sampling circuit 2, an auxiliary power supply and voltage sampling circuit 3, a transformer power supply voltage stabilization circuit 4, a microcontroller and protection analysis and control unit 5, a protection current processing circuit 6 and a high-precision current measurement unit 7. The current sampling circuit 1 is used to collect current signals of each phase line of the circuit breaker and transmit them to the rectification and current sampling circuit 2. The rectification and current sampling circuit 2 rectifies the current signal and transmits it in parallel to the transformer power supply voltage stabilization circuit 4. The transformer power supply voltage stabilization circuit 4 transmits the current signal to the microcontroller and protection analysis and control unit 5 after voltage stabilization. The rectification and current sampling circuit 2 is also connected to the protection current processing circuit 6 and the high-precision current measurement unit 7 respectively. The protection current processing circuit 6 is used to transmit the current signal to the microcontroller and protection analysis and control unit 5 after reverse processing for current fault analysis. The high-precision current measurement unit 7 measures the received current signal.
[0028] Specifically, the current sampling circuit 1 includes a transformer CT1, a transformer CT2, and a transformer CT3, all of which are current sampling transformers. The transformer CT1 is inserted into the LA phase line of the circuit breaker, the transformer CT2 is inserted into the LB phase line of the circuit breaker, and the transformer CT3 is inserted into the LC phase line of the circuit breaker.
[0029] The rectification and current sampling circuit 2 includes three rectifier branches, a first rectifier branch, a second rectifier branch, and a third rectifier branch, each having the same circuit structure. The first rectifier branch is connected to the transformer CT1, the second rectifier branch is connected to the transformer CT2, and the third rectifier branch is connected to the transformer CT3. Specifically, the first rectifier branch includes a rectifier bridge composed of diodes D3, D4, D5, and D6, and sampling resistors R5 and R6. The sampling resistors R5 and R6 are respectively used for current sampling in the positive and negative half cycles of the LA phase line. The second rectifier branch includes a rectifier bridge composed of diodes D7, D8, D9, and D10, and sampling resistors R14 and R15. The sampling resistors R14 and R15 are respectively used for current sampling in the positive and negative half cycles of the LB phase line. The third rectifier branch includes a rectifier bridge formed by diodes D11, D12, D13 and D14, and sampling resistors R25 and R26. The sampling resistors R25 and R26 are used to sample the current of the positive and negative half cycles of the LC phase line respectively.
[0030] The current signals, rectified by the three rectifier branches, are input in parallel to the transformer power supply and voltage stabilization circuit 4. After voltage stabilization by the transformer power supply and voltage stabilization circuit 4, they provide power to the microcontroller and protection analysis and control unit 55. Simultaneously, sampling resistors on both arms of each rectifier branch convert the current signals into voltage signals. One path is directly supplied to the high-precision current measurement unit 77 for current measurement, while the other path is inverted by the protection current processing circuit 66 and supplied to the microcontroller and protection analysis and control unit 55 for current fault analysis, thus providing protection against overload, short-circuit, and other faults in the circuit breaker.
[0031] The auxiliary power supply and voltage sampling circuit 3 is composed of a resistor voltage dividing sampling circuit and a three-phase input switching power supply. Figure 2 As shown, resistors R29-R32 and R43 form the phase A voltage-dividing sampling subcircuit, resistors R33-R36 and R42 form the phase B voltage-dividing sampling subcircuit, and resistors R37-R40 and R41 form the phase C voltage-dividing sampling subcircuit. Diodes D16, D18, and D19 form a three-phase half-wave rectifier circuit, which is connected to the filter circuit consisting of capacitors C14-C17, inductor T1, and resistor R47 via composite varistor RV1. Resistors R44-R56, capacitors C10-C13, capacitors C18-C24, high-frequency transformer B1, and diodes D17, D20-D22 form a step-down switching power supply. The output of the switching power supply is the auxiliary power output.
[0032] The inputs of the auxiliary power supply and voltage sampling circuit 3 are connected to the LA, LB, and LC phases of the circuit breaker, respectively. The voltage sampling output of the auxiliary power supply and voltage sampling circuit 3 is connected to a high-precision current measurement unit 7. The auxiliary power supply output of the auxiliary power supply and voltage sampling circuit 3 is connected to the transformer power supply and voltage stabilization circuit 4. This circuit divides the circuit breaker's operating voltage into the voltage range required by the metering unit, allowing the metering unit to measure electrical parameters such as voltage, power, and energy. Furthermore, the auxiliary power supply is connected to the voltage stabilization output of the transformer power supply and voltage stabilization circuit 44 via diode D15, and then to the power input of the microcontroller and protection analysis control unit 55. The auxiliary power supply output is also connected to the positive terminal of the coil of relay K1. When the circuit breaker is operating normally, the normal output of the auxiliary power supply enables the electronic control circuit to operate normally. Simultaneously, relay K1 is properly energized, closing its normally open contacts and short-circuiting the positive and negative output terminals of the rectifier and current sampling circuit 2. This isolates the nonlinear components in the transformer power supply and voltage stabilization circuit 4 from the current sampling loop, preventing the nonlinear components from affecting current sampling. Because relay K1's contacts are purely resistive and have stable contact resistance, this ensures current sampling stability during the circuit breaker's normal operating conditions, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the circuit breaker's metering and protection. When tested according to national standards without normal operating voltage, the auxiliary power supply has no output voltage, and relay K1's coil also has no operating voltage. The normally open contacts remain open, allowing the transformer's output current to be rectified and input into the voltage stabilization circuit. After voltage stabilization, it is then output to the electronic control circuit, enabling normal operation.
[0033] The transformer power supply voltage stabilization circuit 4 includes a diode D1, a diode D15, a field effect transistor Q1, a voltage stabilization chip U1, a resistor R1, a resistor R2, a resistor R3, a resistor R4, a capacitor C1, a capacitor C2, a capacitor C3, a transient suppression tube D2 and a relay K1. The positive electrode of the diode D1, the drain of the field effect transistor Q1, the negative electrode of the transient suppression tube D2 and one end of the normally open contact of the relay K1 are all connected to the positive output end of the rectification and current sampling circuit 2. One end of the resistor R1, one end of the capacitor C1, the cathode of the diode D15, and the anode of the capacitor C2 are all connected to the cathode of the diode D1; one end of the coil of the relay K1 and the anode of the diode D15 are all connected to the auxiliary power output of the auxiliary power supply and voltage sampling circuit 3; the other end of the normally open contact of the relay K1, the other end of the coil of the relay K1, the anode of the transient suppressor D2, the source of the field effect transistor Q2, one end of the resistor R3, the ground terminal of the voltage stabilizing chip U1, one end of the resistor R4, the other end of the capacitor C1, the cathode of the capacitor C2, and one end of the capacitor C3 are all connected to the negative output terminal of the rectifier and current sampling circuit 2. The gate of the field effect transistor Q1 is respectively connected to the other end of the resistor R3 and one end of the resistor R2; the other end of the resistor R2 is connected to the output of the voltage stabilizing chip U1; and the input of the voltage stabilizing chip U1 is respectively connected to the other end of the resistor R1, the other end of the resistor R4, and the other end of the capacitor C3. The positive electrode of the capacitor C2 is connected to the power input terminal of the microcontroller and the protection current sampling control unit as an output terminal, and the negative electrode of the capacitor C2 is connected to the ground terminal of the microcontroller and the protection current sampling control unit as a ground terminal.

[0037] The second processing branch includes an inverting circuit formed by resistor R16, resistor R13, operational amplifier IC1D, resistor R17, and capacitor C6, and an inverting circuit formed by resistor R19, resistor R18, operational amplifier IC2D, resistor R20, and capacitor C7. One end of resistor R16 is connected to one end of sampling resistor R14, the other end of resistor R16 is respectively connected to one end of resistor R13 and the inverting input terminal of operational amplifier IC1D, the non-inverting input terminal of operational amplifier IC1D is grounded, the output end of operational amplifier IC1D is respectively connected to the other end of resistor R13, one end of capacitor C6, and one end of resistor R17, the other end of capacitor C6 is grounded, and the other end of capacitor R17 is output to the microcontroller and protection analysis control unit 5. One end of the resistor R19 is connected to one end of the sampling resistor R15, and the other end of the resistor R19 is respectively connected to one end of the resistor R18 and the inverting input end of the operational amplifier IC2D. The non-inverting input end of the operational amplifier IC2D is grounded.

The other end of the capacitor C7 is grounded, and the other end of the capacitor R20 is output to the microcontroller and the protection analysis control unit 5.
[0038] The third processing branch includes an inverting circuit consisting of resistor R22, resistor R21, operational amplifier IC1C, resistor R23, and capacitor C8, and an inverting circuit consisting of resistor R27, resistor R24, operational amplifier IC2C, resistor R28, and capacitor C9. One end of resistor R22 is connected to one end of sampling resistor R25, the other end of resistor R22 is respectively connected to one end of resistor R21 and the inverting input terminal of operational amplifier IC1C, the non-inverting input terminal of operational amplifier IC1C is grounded, the output end of operational amplifier IC1C is respectively connected to the other end of resistor R21, one end of capacitor C8, and one end of resistor R23, the other end of capacitor C8 is grounded, and the other end of capacitor R23 is output to the microcontroller and protection analysis control unit 5.

[0039] Because the current sampling resistors are connected to the two arms of the negative terminal of the rectifier bridge, the sampled current signal is a negative level signal. This negative level signal cannot be used for digital analysis in the microcontroller. A level conversion circuit is required to convert the negative level signal into a positive level signal, which can be used for digital analysis in the microcontroller. Taking the LA phase current sampling channel as an example, the load current output by transformer CT1 is sampled through sampling resistors R5 and R6 on the two arms of the negative terminal of the rectifier bridge, respectively, to obtain the level signals of the positive and negative half-cycles of the load current. This negative level current signal is converted to a positive level current signal by the inverter circuits composed of IC1B, R7-R9, C4, and IC2B, R10-R12, C5, respectively. It is then connected to the two analog-to-digital conversion channels of the microcontroller and protection analysis control unit 5 for digital analysis. The current signal processing circuits for the LB and LC phases are based on the same principle as the current signal processing circuit for the LA phase. Although the overload short-circuit protection of a circuit breaker requires low current measurement accuracy, with a measurement error of no more than 10%, the protection action must respond quickly to abnormal short-circuit faults. Therefore, this embodiment inverts the positive and negative half-cycle fault current signals and simultaneously connects them to the analog-to-digital conversion channel of the microcontroller. The positive and negative half-cycle current signals are analyzed simultaneously to achieve rapid action.
[0040] The high-precision current measuring unit 7 is as follows Figure 4As shown, a dedicated metering chip is used as a high-precision current measurement unit. In this example, the Juquan HT7036 dedicated metering chip is used. It measures electrical parameters such as current, voltage, power, and energy, with a measurement error of no more than 0.5%. This circuit is a typical application circuit of the HT7036, and the specific circuit components are not described in detail here. It should be noted that in other embodiments of the present invention, the high-precision current measurement unit can also use dedicated metering chips from other companies and models.
[0041] The utility model utilizes the fact that when the circuit breaker is operating normally within the rated current range, the circuit breaker power supply side has a normal operating voltage. This operating voltage is used to provide an auxiliary working power supply for the circuit breaker's electronic control circuit. At the same time, this auxiliary power supply is used to control the operation of the shorting relay, short-circuiting the nonlinear components in the transformer power supply stabilizing circuit 4, thereby ensuring the internal resistance stability of the sampling circuit and thus ensuring the high precision requirements of current measurement. The regulated power supply composed of the nonlinear components in the transformer power supply stabilizing circuit 4 is only used to provide working power to the electronic control circuit when there is no normal operating voltage during testing according to national standards. Therefore, under normal operating conditions, the transformer power supply stabilizing circuit 4 can be short-circuited and isolated. Due to the nonlinear characteristics of the regulated power supply, in order to ensure the accuracy of full-range current sampling, the nonlinear components in the sampling circuit must be short-circuited and isolated. This ensures the accuracy of sampling within the entire measurement and protection current range, achieving high-precision electrical parameter measurement and accurate overload and short-circuit protection functions.
