To expedite the process of achieving an optimalconfiguration of measurement points, this paper presents an optimal configuration scheme for fault locationmeasurement points in DC distribution networks based on an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm.Initially, a measurement point distribution optimization model is formulated, leveraging compressive sensing.The model aims to achieve the minimum number of measurement points while attaining the best compressivesensing reconstruction effect. It incorporates constraints from the compressive sensing algorithm and networkwide viewability. Subsequently, the traditional particle swarm algorithm is enhanced by utilizing the Haltonsequence for population initialization, generating uniformly distributed individuals. This enhancement reducesindividual search blindness and overlap probability, thereby promoting population diversity. Furthermore, anadaptive t-distribution perturbation strategy is introduced during the particle update process to enhance the globalsearch capability and search speed. The established model for the optimal configuration of measurement points issolved, and the results demonstrate the efficacy and practicality of the proposed method. The optimal configurationreduces the number of measurement points, enhances localization accuracy, and improves the convergence speedof the algorithm. These findings validate the effectiveness and utility of the proposed approach.展开更多

A new distance protection method is developed to locate the fault in a transmission line compensated with STATCOM with simple calculations. The proposed protection method considers the STATCOM injected/absorbed current to correct the fault loop apparent impedance and accordingly calculates the actual distance to the fault location.

文摘A diagnostic signal current trace detecting based single phase-to-ground fault line identifica- tion and section location method for non-effectively grounded distribution systems is presented in this paper.A special diagnostic signal current is injected into the fault distribution system,and then it is detected at the outlet terminals to identify the fault line and at the sectionalizing or branching point along the fault line to locate the fault section.The method has been put into application in actual distribution network and field experience shows that it can identify the fault line and locate the fault section correctly and effectively.

文摘This paper presents a novel algorithm of fault location for transmission line.Solving the network spectrum equations for different frequencies the fault can be located accurately by this algorithm with one terminal data of voltage and current,and the identified parameters,such as fault distance, fault resistance,and opposite terminal system resistance and inductance.The algorithm eliminates the influence of the opposite system impedance on the fault location accuracy,which causes the main error in traditional fault location methods using one terminal data.A method of calculating spectrum from sampled data is also proposed.EMTP simulations show the validity and higher accuracy of the fault location algorithm compared to the existing ones based on one terminal data.

文摘With proper phase module transformation,parallel lines can be decomposed to the same directional net and the reverse directional net. The propagation characteristics of traveling waves in the reverse directional net were analyzed,and the refraction coefficient at the fault point for a single phase fault was derived. In addition,the module selection was discussed. Simulation results show that satisfying accuracy can be achieved with the proposed method. Moreover,it is immune to fault types,fault resistances,and outside system parameters.
文摘A novel numerical algorithm of fault location estimation for four-line fault without ground connection involving phases from each of the parallel lines is presented in this paper. It is based on one-terminal voltage and current data. The loop and nodal equations comparing faulted phase to non-faulted phase of two-parallel lines are introduced in the fault location estimation model, in which the source impedance of a remote end is not involved. The effects of load flow and fault resistance on the accuracy of fault location are effectively eliminated, therefore a precise algorithm of locating fault is derived. The algorithm is demonstrated by digital computer simulations.
文摘The single phase grounding fault location is the focus which researchers pay attention to and study in power system. The accurate fault location can lighten the patrolling burden, and enhance the reliability of the power network. It adopts A/D which has high speed, and uses TMS320VC5402 DSP chip as the system core. This paper presented theory of operation based on traveling waves and achieved software and hardware in detail.
