Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grounding zero-difference protection technology, and more specifically to a zero-difference protection system with dual CT sampling and dual outlets. Background Technology
[0002] Pumping stations typically use a three-phase power system to supply electricity to the motors. Under normal circumstances, the vector sum of the three-phase currents should be zero. However, when there is a fault or imbalance in the motor or system, an additional zero-sequence current will be generated. Therefore, a grounding differential protection system is required to ensure the normal operation of the pumping station.
[0003] However, traditional ground fault differential protection systems cannot distinguish between ground faults in the main line and branch lines; they can only issue ground fault alarms and cannot pinpoint whether the fault occurred on the busbar or a branch. Furthermore, existing ground fault differential protection systems trip the power supply as soon as a single current transformer (CT) detects zero-sequence current, resulting in weak anti-interference capabilities and failing to meet the stability and reliability requirements of pumping stations.
[0004] Therefore, how to improve the positioning accuracy and stability of the grounding zero-difference protection system is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a grounding zero-difference protection system with dual CT sampling and dual outlets. By setting bus CT and branch outgoing line CT separately, the system can distinguish between bus grounding and branch motor grounding, and improve system stability by sampling with dual CT at sampling points.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model discloses a grounding zero-difference protection system with dual CT sampling and dual outlets, including: a main control module, an AD sampling module, several dual CT sampling units, and a switch control module;
[0008] Each of the dual-CT sampling units is connected to the corresponding access terminal of the AD sampling module, collects the zero-sequence current mutual inductance detection signals of the main incoming line and each branch outgoing line, and inputs them into the AD sampling module. After AD conversion, the signals are input into the main control module.
[0009] The main control module outputs a zero-sequence differential signal to the switch control module based on the zero-sequence current detection signal after AD conversion; the switch control module outputs a trip drive current based on the zero-sequence differential signal to drive the power system switch of the pumping station to trip.
[0010] Furthermore, the dual-CT sampling unit consists of current transformer a and current transformer b;
[0011] The zero-sequence current inductance detection signal includes current inductance signal a and current inductance signal b;
[0012] The zero-sequence differential signal includes zero-sequence differential signal a and zero-sequence differential signal b;
[0013] The switch control module includes relays a and b connected in series. Relay a is turned on when it receives the zero-sequence differential signal a high level, and relay b is turned on when it receives the zero-sequence differential signal b high level.
[0014] Furthermore, it also includes a dual-PT sampling unit and a zero-pressure lockout module:
[0015] The dual PT sampling unit acquires the voltage inductance detection signal of the main incoming line and inputs it into the AD sampling module. After AD conversion, it is input into the main control module. The main control module outputs a zero-voltage blocking control signal to the zero-voltage blocking module based on the voltage detection signal after AD conversion. The zero-voltage blocking module is connected in series with the switch control module. When disconnected, it prevents the trip drive current from being output.
[0016] Furthermore, the dual PT sampling unit consists of voltage transformer a and voltage transformer b;
[0017] The voltage inductance detection signal includes voltage inductance signal a and voltage inductance signal b;
[0018] The zero-pressure interlocking control signal includes zero-pressure interlocking control signal a and zero-pressure interlocking control signal b;
[0019] The zero-voltage interlocking module includes a relay c and a relay d connected in series. The relay c is turned on when the zero-voltage interlocking control signal a is high, and the relay d is turned on when the zero-voltage interlocking control signal b is high.
[0020] If the voltage inductance signal is greater than a preset threshold, the corresponding zero-voltage blocking control signal is high; otherwise, it is low.
[0021] Furthermore, the main control module sends an alarm signal to the corresponding fault lamp based on the zero-sequence current detection signal after AD conversion.
[0022] Furthermore, the AD sampling module is model AD7616.
[0023] Furthermore, the main control module signal is STM32F407ZET6.
[0024] As can be seen from the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, this utility model discloses a grounding zero-differential protection system with dual CT sampling and dual outlets. By setting dual CT sampling at the switches of the main incoming line and each branch outgoing line, it can accurately distinguish between bus grounding faults and branch motor grounding faults, greatly shortening the fault diagnosis time, reducing downtime caused by faults, and ensuring the stable and efficient operation of the pumping station. Each monitoring point is equipped with two CT current transformers, a and b. The dual CT sampling design greatly improves the system's anti-interference capability. The main control module adopts a dual-outlet design, and tripping only occurs when both trip signals are active simultaneously. Furthermore, a voltage transformer detection function and a corresponding zero-voltage interlocking module are also included, avoiding the problems of weak anti-interference capability and easy tripping affecting the efficient operation of the system caused by a single detection control signal. This utility model improves the positioning accuracy and operational stability of the grounding zero-differential protection system. Attached Figure Description

[0036] In one specific embodiment, it also includes a dual PT sampling unit and a zero-pressure latching module:
[0037] The dual PT sampling unit collects the voltage inductance detection signal of the main incoming line and inputs it into the AD sampling module. After AD conversion, it is input into the main control module. The main control module outputs the zero-voltage blocking control signal to the zero-voltage blocking module based on the voltage detection signal after AD conversion. The zero-voltage blocking module is connected in series with the switch control module. When disconnected, it prevents the trip drive current from being output.

[0040] The zero-pressure interlocking control signals include zero-pressure interlocking control signal a and zero-pressure interlocking control signal b;

[0043] In one specific embodiment, the main control module sends an alarm signal to the corresponding fault lamp based on the zero-sequence current detection signal after AD conversion.
[0044] In one specific embodiment, the AD sampling module is model AD7616.
[0045] In one specific embodiment, the main control module signal is STM32F407ZET6.
[0046] In one specific embodiment, a grounding zero-differential protection system for a three-branch power supply system will be used as an example for illustration. Figure 2 As shown, K1 is the 10kV main incoming line switch, I01 is the zero-sequence current of the 10kV main incoming line, K2, K3, and K4 are 10kV three-way branch outgoing line switches, and the loads are 10kV motors on the three branches respectively. The dual-CT sampling unit I01-04 is set at K1-4 to sample I01, I02, I03, and I04 respectively.
[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, in a dual-CT sampling, dual-output grounding zero-differential protection system, the 8-channel mutual inductance signals (I01a, I01b, I02a, I02b, I03a, I03b, I04a, I04b) of the 4-channel (I01, I02, I03, I04) dual-CT sampling units are converted from digital signals to digital signals by an AD sampling unit (AD7616 chip), and the digital signals are transmitted to the main control module. The AD7616 channels correspond to... Figure 2 The relationship is as follows:
[0048] I01a, I01b correspond to Figure 2 The two channels of I01 (zero-sequence current of 10KV main incoming line).
[0049] I02a, I02b correspond to Figure 2 The two channels of I02 (zero-sequence current of 10KV branch-switch).
[0050] I03a, I03b correspond to Figure 2 The two channels of I03 (zero-sequence current of 10KV branch two switch).
[0051] I04a, I04b correspond to Figure 2 The two channels of I04 (zero-sequence current of 10KV branch three switches).
[0052] U0a, U0b correspond to Figure 2 The two channels of U0 are used to collect the zero-sequence voltage signal at the main incoming line switch and compare it with the preset threshold through the main control module. When the zero-sequence voltage signal is detected to be lower than the set threshold, it indicates that the external power supply voltage at the main incoming line is too low. A high level is output to the zero-voltage blocking module to avoid tripping caused by non-zero-sequence grounding, improve the stability of system operation, and reduce the maintenance and switch reset work of the staff.
[0053] The main control module uses an STM32F407ZET6 ARM microcontroller with an M4 core CPU and a maximum clock frequency of 168MHz. The CPU reads the conversion results from 10 channels via parallel SRAM (I01a, I01b, I02a, I02b, I03a, I03b, I04a, I04b, U0a, U0b). The CPU uses a timer with 64-point sampling at 50Hz. The AD result is calculated using DFT to obtain 10 RMS values and 10 complex vector results. Using the dual-channel data of the conversion result, two differential data points, I0cda and I0cdb, are obtained. The zero-sequence differential equation for channel a is: I0cda = I01a + (2 / N1)I02a + (N3 / N1)I03a + (N4 / N1)I04a; the zero-sequence differential equation for channel b is: I0cdb = I01b + (N2 / N1)I02b + (N3 / N1)I03b + (N4 / N1)I04b. When I0cda > the zero-sequence differential setting, the set time length is met, and the output D01a relay is at a high level; when I0cdb > the zero-sequence differential setting, the set time length is met, and the output D01b relay is at a high level. The dual-output relay nodes are connected in series, allowing simultaneous protection of both outputs. This dual-channel mode improves the reliability of the protection. The above calculation method is merely an existing technical means that may be involved in implementing the functions of this utility model product and is not the focus of this utility model's protection.
