The invention discloses a line
selection method for a single-phase earth fault of a power distribution network. The method comprises the steps of measuring zero sequence
voltage of a power distribution network
bus, switching a parallel
resistor, connected in parallel with an
arc suppression coil, of an electric structure if the amplitude of the zero sequence
voltage of the power distribution network
bus is greater than 15% of that of A phase
voltage of the power distribution network during normal operation, measuring sampling values of the zero sequence voltage of the power distribution network
bus and sampling values of zero sequence currents of power distribution network feeder lines at sampling times, selecting any cycle of sampling values of the zero sequence voltage of the power distribution network bus and sampling values of the zero sequence currents of the power distribution network feeder lines, sequentially calculating line selection power coefficients of the power distribution network feeder lines, and selecting the power distribution network
feeder line of which the line selection
power coefficient is less than zero and the absolute value of the line selection
power coefficient is maximum as a fault
feeder line. A fault line selection result of the method is not influenced by factors such as a
feeder line type, a fault location, line parameters, transition resistance, an earth fault type and
line length, is adapted to a complicated power distribution network
operating environment, and is good in practicability.
