An improved distance relay based on electronic transformer by using instantaneous value after equal transfer processes

Abstract

This paper analyses the formation mechanism of the transmission distortion of electronic voltage transformer, and points out that the integrator will magnify the transient transfer error and superimpose the dynamic additional component on the output signal, which may cause the transfer distortion of voltage signal in serious cases. To restrict the electronic transformer transient variable error effect on distance relay, a distance relay method using instantaneous value after equal transfer processes is proposed. It directly uses output differential signals of the capacitor voltage divider and Rogowski coil. The capacitor voltage divider and Rogowski coil are decomposed into several typical variable link in series. The virtual digital transfer link, which is constructed by the digital filter, is used to compensate for the difference parts of the transfer link, so that the voltage and current signals pass through the same transfer link. It can mitigate the influence of voltage and current signal transfer difference on the calculation accuracy of distance relay. The simulation results show that the proposed distance relay method has fast operation speed and is less affected by abnormal voltage and current signal transfer, and its performance is better than existing distance relay methods.

Contactless current measurement for suspended overhead lines using a magnetic field sensor array

“…Without iron-core structures, ECTs effectively solve the hysteresis saturation problem of traditional CTs. In addition, an ECT has lightweight sensing structure and a small sensing output signal; therefore, it is suitable for applications in the integration of intelligent transmission and distribution (T&D) systems and intelligent substations [10][11][12]. For on-site current measurement applications of overhead lines, one of the main studies is to solve the limitations of sensor placement in the on-site environment.…”

A novel distance protection scheme using single‐ended transient voltage based on generalized S transform

“…Reference [14] proposed to utilize voltage phase information to eliminate the negative effect of the fault resistance. References [15,16] calculate the fault distance by reconstructing the fault point voltage. However, this method cannot fundamentally solve the problem of non-metallic grounding, and there are errors in principle.…”
