The Study of Fault Location Method Based on FTU Feeder Automation Technology
ABSTRACT
With the development of power distribution automation system, feeder automation technology in the small current grounding system single-phase grounding fault location plays an important role. In the neutral arc suppression coil grounding system, because of the compensation effect of arc suppression coil, the system fault feature is not obvious. This paper puts forward a method of RL series branch parallel in arc suppression coil, when system single-phase grounding fault occurs, the series branch switch gets closed and acts on the neutral, that changes the compensation degree of arc suppression coil to zero sequence current in fault line, the change of zero sequence residual current being the biggest in the fault section from neutral to fault point. FTU is used to monitor the change in each fault line for fault regional location.
