AbstractFault section location of a single-phase grounding fault is affected by the neutral grounding mode of the system, transition resistance, and the blind zone. A fault section locating method based on an amplitude feature and an intelligent distance algorithm is proposed to eliminate the influence of the above factors. By analyzing and comparing the amplitude characteristics of the zero-sequence current transient components at both ends of the healthy section and the faulty section, a distance algorithm with strong abnormal data immune capability is introduced in this paper. The matching degree of the amplitude characteristics at both ends of the feeder section are used as the criterion and by comparing with the set threshold, the faulty section is effectively determined. Finally, simulations using Matlab/Simulink and PSCAD/EMTDC show that the proposed section locating method can locate the faulty section accurately, and is not affected by grounding mode, grounding resistance, or the blind zone.

Randomly installed distributed generators (DGs) in households may cause unbalanced line current in a distribution network. This research presents a battery energy system for balancing of line current in a distribution network involving multi units of single phase photovoltaic (PV) distributed generators (DGs). In this paper, the PV generators were simulated consisting of a buck-boost DC/DC converter and single phase DC/AC inverter. It was connected to the distribution line through the low voltage 220 volt 50 Hz. The proposed phase balancing system uses battery energy storage and three single phase bidirectional inverters. The inverter is capable of injecting current or absorbing power from the line to the battery. This inverter operation is arranged to balance each distribution line separately, as well as to improve other power quality parameters, such as voltage and current harmonics. Simulation results show that the system was capable of improving the unbalanced line current from 15.59 % to 11, 48 % and unbalanced line voltage from 1.76 % to 0.58 %. The system was able for increasing current harmonics from 0.98 % to 1.03% and voltage harmonics from 38.96% to 39.08%.

Due to the high ground fault resistance and the complexity of power distribution network structure (such as too many nodes, branches and too long lines), adopting common traveling wave method and ac injection method can not effectively locate the single-phase grounding fault in the distribution network system.To solve above problems and determine the position of the point of failure prisely, this paper adopted the dc location method of injecting the dc signal from the point of failure under the power outage offline. This paper introduces the single phase dc method and the method of three phase dc, and the simulation shows that the dc location method is effective and feasible.
