Research on the Positioning Method of Single-Phase to Earth Fault in Distributed Distribution Network
The existing high-density distributed distribution network single-phase earth fault interval location method has the disadvantage of long positioning time. Hence, a single-phase earth fault interval positioning method for high-density distributed distribution network is proposed to solve this problem. In order to accurately locate the single-phase earth fault interval of distribution network, zero-order equivalent model of distribution network is built at first. Next the clustering algorithm is used to extract the single-phase earth fault characteristics, while the single-phase earth fault phase current increment is calculated by using the analysis method to obtain the single-phase earth fault phase current increment law. Then a fault-maximum interval T-shaped structure is built to divide the potential fault interval. Finally, the S-transformation is applied to accurately locate the single-phase earth fault interval, and the localization of the single-phase earth fault interval of the high-density distributed distribution network is achieved. The experimental results show that comparing with the existing high-density distributed distribution network single-phase earth fault interval positioning method, the proposed high-density distributed distribution network single-phase earth fault interval positioning method dramatically reduces the positioning time. It is fully explained that the proposed method in this article has a better positioning effect.
