    摘要: A method for charging a modular multilevel converter includes: firstly, electrifying DC side of a converter; after voltages of submodules are stabilized, deblocking the converter, turning on all the submodules, then reducing the number of turned on submodules in phase unit; when over-current occurs on a bridge arm, temporarily increasing the number of turned on submodules to suppress the over-current; after the voltages of the sub-modules are stabilized, continuously reducing the number of the turned on submodules until the number of the turned on submodules in the phase unit is finally equal to the number of working submodules of the bridge arm, so as to smoothly transit to a normal operation state. The DC side is charged, such that the voltages of the submodules reach a working voltage before the converter normally operates, and an impacting current is avoided in the charging process by using a proper control strategy.

    摘要: A method for incorporating a non-operating station into an operating system in a multi-terminal flexible DC transmission system. The method includes selecting a STATCOM operation mode for the non-operating station; opening a bypass switch at an AC side and connecting a charging resistor to an AC line; closing the AC incoming-line breaker, and pre-charging a converter valve of the non-operating station through the resistor; closing the bypass switch after the pre-charging; selecting a constant-DC voltage control mode for the non-operating station to perform deblocking; controlling the difference between a non-operating station DC voltage value and an operating system direct voltage value to be within an allowable range; closing the pole-connection device at the DC side of a converter of the non-operating station; and switching the non-operating station from the STATCOM operation mode to a DC operation mode, and incorporating the non-operating station into the operating system.

    摘要: A fault switch configuration and clearing method in a flexible DC converter station, the flexible DC converter station is configured with a grid side switch and a valve side phase-split switch in the converter station. When a fault occurs, a faulty phase and a non-faulty phase are detected and identified by means of differential protection or low voltage overcurrent. An alternating current zero crossing condition is created by means of firstly turn off the non-faulty phase valve side phase-split switch and the grid side switch, thereby cutting off the faulty phase, disconnecting the connection between a power supply and a fault point, and achieving the clearing for faults. The described fault-clearing method is simple and practical, highly reliable, and connection between the fault point and the power supply is quickly and effectively cut; converter station equipment is effectively protected, and further expansion of the fault is avoided.

    摘要: The present invention discloses a coordination control method of a multi-terminal VSC-HVDC transmission system. If a direct current voltage master control station shuts down, a direct current voltage control slave station takes over direct current voltage control, and remaining convertor stations keep original control modes. The takeover steps comprise that under the condition that inter-station communications are effective, the master control station sends a shutdown message to the slave station through the inter-station communications, and when the slave station monitors that the direct current voltage master control station shuts down, the slave station switches a current control mode into a direct current voltage control mode; and under the condition that inter-station communications fail or inter-station communications are absent, the slave station monitors changes of the direct current voltage of a system.
