    摘要: Both fault location and fault resistance of a fault are calculated by the present method and system. The method and system takes into account the effects of fault resistance and load flow, thereby calculating fault resistance by taking into consideration the current flowing through the distribution network as well as the effect of fault impedance. A direct method calculates fault location and fault resistance directly while an iterative fashion method utilizes simpler calculations in an iterative fashion which first assumes that the phase angle of the current distribution factor D.sub.s is zero, calculates an estimate of fault location utilizing this assumption, and then iteratively calculates a new value of the phase angle .beta..sub.s of the current distribution factor D.sub.s and fault location m until a sufficiently accurate determination of fault location is ascertained. Fault resistance is then calculated based upon the calculated fault location. The techniques are equally applicable to a three-phase system once fault type is identified.

    摘要: A system for implementing accurate V/Hz value measurement and trip time determination for generator/transformer overexcitation protection independent of the conventional frequency tracking and phasor estimation based on Discrete Fourier Transformation (DFT) techniques. A sampled sinusoidal voltage signal is passed through a digital integrator and the magnitude of the digital integrator's output is measured as representative of the V/Hz ratio. The digital integrator is implemented in software using a difference equation in a generator protection unit. The technique may be used with either a fixed or a variable sampling frequency. When the sampling frequency is variable, the filter coefficients of the digital integrator are recalculated on-line each time the sampling frequency is changed, and a new value for the peak magnitude of the output of the digital integrator is calculated using the recalculated filter coefficients. Non-linear frequency response characteristics of the voltage sensors and non-ideal characteristics of the digital integrator are also adjusted using the measured frequency and error-frequency characteristics of the particular digital integrator and voltage sensors used.

    摘要: An adaptive distance relaying system provides improved performance for parallel circuit distance protection. The system utilizes the parallel circuit's current, when available, in conjunction with measurements of voltage and current on the protected line to compensate for the zero sequence current mutual coupling effect. The sequence current ratio (zero or negative sequence) is used to avoid incorrect compensation for relays on the healthy circuit. If the parallel circuit current is not available and the line operating status is, the best zero sequence current compensation factors are selected accordingly as a next level adaptation. If both the parallel circuit current and line operating status are unavailable, a fallback scheme that offers better results than classical distance protection schemes is employed.

    摘要: A system for implementing accurate V/Hz value measurement and trip time determination for generator/transformer overexcitation protection independent of the conventional frequency tracking and phasor estimation based on Discrete Fourier Transformation (DFT) techniques. The half-cycle summation technique of the invention is a non-recursive digital technique which measures the per unit V/Hz value by summing the sampled data points in every half cycle of a sinusoidal input signal and dividing the sum with the ideal base sum value. When the input voltage signal is sampled at a reasonable frequency, the technique of the invention approximates the accurate per unit V/Hz value of the input voltage signal and thus obtains an accurate V/Hz characteristic directly without computing voltage and frequency separately.

    摘要: A Voltage Instability Predictor (VIP) estimates the proximity of a power system to voltage collapse in real time. The VIP can be implemented in a microprocessor-based relay whose settings are changed adaptively to reflect system changes. Only local measurements (voltage and current) at the bus terminal are required. Contrary to the most common strategy to maintain voltage stability, which is to shed blocks of load when the voltage drops below a certain fixed threshold, which threshold is difficult to select since voltage magnitudes are a poor indicator of how close the system is to a collapse, the inventive VIP detects this proximity to collapse by monitoring the relationship between the apparent impedance {overscore (Z)}app and the Thevenin-impedance circle.

    摘要: A method and system for estimating phasors and tracking the frequency of a signal is provided. The method uses a variable N-point DFT to compute one or more phasors based on data acquired from one or more sampled signals. At each sampling interval the change in phasor angle between the current sampling interval and the previous sampling interval is determined and used to estimate the instantaneous frequency of the signal. Instantaneous frequencies are averaged over a cycle of the signal. In addition, a number of discrete frequencies and corresponding DFT windows based on a fixed sampling rate and a predetermined fundamental frequency of the signal are defined and used in estimating the instantaneous frequency. Once the average cycle frequency is determined the DFT window is adjusted by setting it equal to the DFT window corresponding to the discrete frequency closest to the average cycle frequency.

    摘要: A fault location system comprises voltage/current transducers 10A, 10B located at terminals A and B, respectively; digital relays 12A and 12B respectively coupled to transducer blocks 10A and 10B; and a fault location estimation processor 14, which may comprise a substation controller at substation S.sub.A or substation S.sub.B, a relay at A or B, a stand alone computer at A or B, or a computer at a central location. The digital relays receive analog voltage and current signals (V.sub.A, I.sub.A, V.sub.B, I.sub.B) from the respective transducers and output digital phasor or oscillographic data to the fault location estimation block. The fault location estimation block is programmed to provide the fault location parameter m. The fault location estimation provided by the inventive technique is unaffected by the fault resistance, load current, mutual coupling effects from a parallel line, uncertainties in zero sequence values, shunt elements, and X/R characteristic of the system. The fault location can be estimated accurately even in cases of substantial resistance and load flow. In addition, the invention does not require synchronization of the data received from the respective A and B terminals, nor does it require pre-fault data or fault type selection.
