Description
Summary:To address the poor tolerance to transitional resistance and incomplete utilization of fault information in grounding protection for flexible grounding systems, a fault line selection method based on current phase variation is proposed. First, the phase variation trends of zero-sequence currents across lines before and after small resistance insertion are analyzed based on the zero-sequence equivalent circuit of single-phase grounding faults in flexible grounding systems. Then, it is observed that during high resistance grounding faults, the phase variation of zero-sequence currents in healthy lines shows significant differences from that of the fault line. Based on this observation, a fault line selection method using zero-sequence current phase variation is proposed. Finally, the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed method are verified in PSCAD/EMTDC simulations. Results show that the method only requires phase information of zero-sequence currents before and after small resistance insertion, offering strong transitional resistance tolerance and immunity to issues such as zero-sequence CT polarity reversal, asynchronous sampling, and fault distance variations.
