In order to promote the application of inverse-time overcurrent relays, a new time function for microprocessor-type relay is proposed. The setting of the trip time for this relay is performed by determining the shortest trip time and the longest trip time, respectively. The results of analysis show that with the new time function, the inverse-time overcurrent relay is easy to coordinate with other relays and has a comparatively shorter trip time, and that the fault happens in the protective zone.展开更多

In order to solve these problems, this paper compares some harmonic detection and filtering methods, devices and methods for suppressing resonance in recent years, and combines the principle of resonance to design a nonlinear inductive circuit that can suppress resonant overcurrent according to the characteristics of nonlinear inductors. Compared with the Resistance (R) series Induct Capacitance (LC) parallel circuit composed of common inductors, the circuit described in this paper is not affected by overcurrent, and the influence of overvoltage is relatively greatly reduced. The simulate-on proves that this circuit suppresses the effects of resonant overvoltage and overcurrent.展开更多

For digital integrated protection equipment, OC protection setting table must be converted to be a microcomputer algorithm. This paper first intro-duced a method of the fitting OC protection setting table to be OC relay inverse time characteristics equations using MATLAB least square fitting. On the basis of analyzing these fitting equations, a notion, “integral limit rate” was put forward initially and a OC in-verse time digital algorithm was developed. MATLAB simulation results and a digital signal processor (DSP) based digital integrated protection equipment running test indicate that this algorithm has less calculation amount, less taking up memory, high control accuracy, implements the no-grade setting of OC delay values, suits for all kinds of low-middle mi-crocomputer system implementation.展开更多

Considering the sequential distribution of harmonic currents, zero-sequence components could be diminished using electromagnetic devices, particularly the eZSB （electromagnetic zero-sequence blocking）. One important characteristic of this device, which has received particular attention on this research, is its robustness and low cost of construction. Theoretical and experimental results related to the behavior of the electromagnetic blocking devices are presented. The results illustrate the consistence of the theoretical aspects related with the model in the frequency domain, as well as the performance of the blocking devices, reducing zero-sequence harmonic currents, mainly by the conjunct action of the eZSF （electromagnetic zero-sequence harmonic filter）, working as a impedance coupler. In this context, aiming the evaluation of the reliability of the results obtained through mathematical modeling, experimental tests have been carried out using a low-power prototype, highlighting particular aspects related to its function as a zero-sequence harmonic blocker.展开更多
