The invention relates to a ground distance protection method, which comprises: measure local source impedance based on fault component at both ends (M, N) of the transmission line in the case of a ground distance fault has occurred. Send the measured local source impedance from a first end to a second end. Adjust a protection criterion at the second end based on the measured impedance. And, judge the ground fault as an internal fault or an external fault according to the adjusted protection criterion. The invention also relates to a controller, a piece of software and an apparatus for implementing the same function.

The directional element, following enablement under selected input current conditions, calculates a zero sequence impedance, in response to values of zero sequence voltage and zero sequence current. The current value is selected between two possible values, one being the value from an associated current transformer, the other being the sum of the currents IAnullIBnullIC. The calculated zero sequence impedance is then compared against sensitive selected threshold values, established particularly for ungrounded systems. A forward fault indication is provided when the calculated zero sequence impedance is above a first established sensitive threshold value, and a reverse fault indication is provided when the calculated zero sequence impedance is below a second established sensitive threshold value.

An improved reactance characteristic for an overall ground distance quadrilateral characteristic embodies a particular phase selector, possibly among a plurality of phase selectors and variables, that eliminates undesirable generation of a tripping signal other than only for a selected phase to ground fault. This phase selector is I1FZ1, where Z1 is the positive sequence replica impedance and I1F is the fault component of the positive sequence current component, referenced to the proper phase. Preferably, the pre-fault load current is removed from this quantity. Additionally, an improved restricted phase directional function is implemented, further improving the overall performance of the quadrilateral characteristic relay.

At least two different time constants are used to produce the polarizing memory reference voltage which in turn is used in a protective relay for power transmission lines. For most conditions, a relative short time constant of 1.75 cycles is used, while under other specific conditions, determined automatically, a longer time constant of 15.75 cycles is used.

A numerical comparator employs numerical techniques based upon the behavior of the cylinder unit to compare phasors in real time. In one application, the torque signal generated by the numerical comparator, M.sub.k+1, is employed to determine whether a fault has occurred in a transmission line. Another application involves employing the output M.sub.k+1 to determine the direction of power flow in the transmission line. In yet another application, the output M.sub.k+1 is used to determine whether a voltage or current has exceeded a predetermined threshold. In yet another application, time dependent waveforms of positive and negative symmetrical sequence components are digitally produced.

A one-terminal process for locating a fault associated with a transmission system is disclosed. The process is based on the principle fault sequence can be determined by a distribution factor in positive faults may be any defect among phases or ground. The process begins by one end of a transmission line. If the data is oscillographic data, measured data is in phasor form, or after phasors have been calculated determined. Thereafter, a decision is made whether the pre-fault data data is sound, an equation is selected to calculate the fault location decision is made whether the phase is a three-phase fault. Then, a employed to compensate for the fault through a resistance by measuring part of the apparent line impedance. If the fault is not a three-phase formula is not employed and the appropriate equation is selected for the fault location parameter. Accurate fault location techniques for also disclose. The system is insensitive to the zero sequence current information about the system source impedances is required.

A distance relay for protection of power transmission lines, having a plurality of mho elements, each with a predetermined mho impedance characteristic. The relay has the capability of calculating a polarized reference voltage which remains constant through fluctuations in measured transmission line voltage. The difference voltage between the measured line voltage and the product of the measured line current and the mho element characteristic impedance is then compared against the polarized reference voltage in a product-type phase comparator to determine under-impedance conditions. If an under-impedance condition is present, the mho element produces a set output and a calculated "torque" value. The set outputs, if any, are then compared against a look-up table for fault type determination. If more than one set output is present, the magnitudes of the respective torque values are compared for fault type determination.

Disclosed is an improved reactance type protective relay that increases security against false tripping while still providing desired protection for a high voltage transmission line. The improved reactance relay employs a circuit arrangement having characteristic timers that optimize the performance of the reactance relay and also allows for desired coordination between the reactance relays that may be located along the high voltage transmission line.
摘要:
A phase relay utilizes improved polarizing and operating signals in order to provide discrimination between internal faults within a protected zone of an AC power transmission line and external faults than can appear as internal faults due to transients induced by capacitive voltage transformers or series capacitors. A zero sequence restraint signal is used to block operation of the phase relay on close-in single line to ground faults. A filter is used in a by-pass circuit to attenuate high frequency transients which might delay, and possibly prevent a trip output on an internal fault. A high set by-pass circuit, including zero suppression to preclude an output on an external fault, is employed to provide faster operating times on severe internal faults. Forward offset and/or zero suppression of the polarizing signal is used to reduce the characteristic timer setting and therefore increase the speed of the phase relay operation.
