The invention provides a power distribution network fault section rapid calibration method based on a feeder terminal. According to the method, power distribution network line electrical quantity and
distributed power supply output information are collected in real time through a feeder terminal and preprocessed, then fault transient signals are processed through complete set empirical mode
decomposition of mean value self-adaptive
noise, and intrinsic mode components are obtained to judge fault types. Thirdly, fault section preliminary positioning is carried out, and an approximate area is determined according to a positive sequence
voltage vector for a symmetric short-circuit fault, a negative sequence
voltage vector for an asymmetric short-circuit fault and a zero sequence
current amplitude for a single-phase earth fault; then accurate calibration is carried out, a single-phase earth fault is judged through a filter and correlation coefficients, and
short circuit and broken line faults are calibrated through a model or an intelligent
algorithm in combination with line topology and electrical parameters. And finally, establishing a target function containing a penalty term, converting the target function into a Markov
decision process, solving through an approximate
dynamic programming algorithm, realizing rapid and accurate calibration of a fault section, and improving the power supply reliability of the power distribution network.
