Research on Adaptive Reclosing of Distribution Network based on Signal Injection

Abstract

Without discriminating the nature of faults, the traditional three-phase reclosing performs after set time, so the failure of reclosing will result in a secondary impact on the system. In order to avoid the damage of secondary impact caused by reclosing onto a permanent fault and increase the successful rate of reclosing, the application of adaptive reclosing technology for transmission lines has been relatively common, and the development of adaptive reclosing technology for distribution lines has been relatively slow. The adaptive reclosing technology of distribution network based on signal injection is studied in this paper. Compared with the fault nature identification method based on the electrical characteristics of the fault itself, the scheme of adaptive reclosing technology based on additional injection of trial signal in the primary system has the advantage of not being limited by the structure and parameter characteristics of the distribution line itself, which can fundamentally overcome the difficulties faced by the fault property identification method based on the electrical characteristics or arc characteristics of the line fault recovery stage.
