The invention relates to the field of power
system relay protection, and provides a
transformer inrush current identification method and
system based on sampling value image space distribution characteristics, a
voltage and current sampling sequence is introduced, a # imgabs0 # sampling value image space distribution concept is defined, image space distribution characteristics of # imgabs1 # sampling values of a
transformer under different working conditions are analyzed, and the
transformer inrush current identification method and
system based on the sampling value image space distribution characteristics are obtained. According to the symmetry and the shape difference of image space distribution, a transformer
inrush current identification and closing fault identification criterion based on # imgabs2 sampling value image space distribution characteristics is provided, the current type of a transformer is identified according to the identification criterion, different operation conditions of the transformer are set respectively to carry out example
simulation on the provided method, and the method is used for identifying the inrush current of the transformer and identifying the inrush current of the transformer according to the shape difference of the # imgabs2 sampling value image space distribution characteristics. The result shows that the identification method is accurate and reliable, the inrush current can be effectively identified, and
differential protection misoperation is prevented.
