The present disclosure relates to a field of voltage sag control, and in particular to a method and a system for controlling a multi-stage voltage sag.
Currently, methods for controlling voltage sags mainly focus on single-stage rectangular sags caused by short circuits, lacking methods suitable for controlling multi-stage voltage sags. However, a frequency of multi-stage voltage sag events is gradually increasing, and the problem of multi-stage sags cannot be ignored. For example, with the development of new power systems, a proportion of distributed generation devices connected to the power systems is increasing. During a short circuit fault, a sag may cause a single distributed generation device to trip or multiple distributed generation devices to trip in cascade, forming a complex multi-stage sag. In addition, commonly used staged protections in the power systems, such as distance protection, may also cause multi-stage sags due to its operating characteristics.
The voltage sag is the most severe disturbance affecting sensitive devices and cannot be avoided. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers defines voltage sag as a power quality phenomenon where an effective value of a supply voltage rapidly drops to 0.1 to 0.9 per unit (p. u.), lasting from 0.5 cycles to 1 minute. To address voltage sag issues, it is essential to accurately reflect voltage sag levels at different locations in the power system, thus requiring the installation of necessary monitoring devices for sag monitoring. Due to the large and complex nature of a power grid, the monitoring devices can typically only be installed at some bus lines in consideration of monitoring costs and information processing capabilities. Estimating the sag levels (mainly referring to sag magnitude and duration of voltage sags) of unmonitored bus lines (i.e., bus lines without monitoring devices installed) using limited monitoring data is an important research task. With the gradual increase in the frequency of multi-stage voltage sags, proposing a suitable method for controlling a multi-stage voltage sag is of significant importance.
The main challenges in multi-stage voltage sag control are as follows: A main cause of the multi-stage voltage sag is disconnection of distributed generation device(s) or protection devices at two ends of a line tripping at different times during a short circuit. A first challenge is how to determine the cause of voltage sags in different stages. A location of the short circuit is an important factor affecting a voltage magnitude. A second challenge is how to preliminarily classify possible sets of fault lines to reduce a computational load of Multi-stage Voltage Sag State Estimation (MVSSE). During the short circuit, the voltage magnitude at the same fault location is also influenced by events such as a count of distributed generation devices disconnected from the grid and a sequence of disconnection of the distributed generation devices from the grid, and a tripping condition of the protective devices on the fault line. A third challenge is how to infer specific causes of voltage sag events in different stages to improve the accuracy of MVSSE. For different candidate fault lines, determining different potential fault levels based on the grid location level can further reduce the computational load of a processor configured in a voltage sag analysis device. Using a fault processing model, it is possible to automatically and quickly determine the true fault lines and specific fault events from a large number of candidate fault lines, providing data support for timely determination of relay protection devices that need replacement and locations requiring installation of electric power stabilizing devices. Using a location assessment model to process a graph structure can quickly and uniformly determine whether multiple locations in the grid need retrofitting of electric power stabilizing devices, greatly reducing the computational load. Considering an impact of retrofitting the electric power stabilizing devices on operating parameter(s) of existing relay protection devices, while ensuring grid stability and safe and reliable equipment operation, operational costs can be reduced.
To address the aforementioned issues, the present disclosure provides a system, a method, and a storage medium for controlling a multi-stage voltage sag. By analyzing various causes leading to the multi-stage sag, considering an abrupt transition time of each stage in multi-stage sag monitoring data and a fault clearing time of a protection device, the present disclosure deduces possible fault event types occurring at each stage of the multi-stage voltage sag, thereby achieving control of the multi-stage voltage sag to meet engineering requirements.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the system for controlling the multi-stage voltage sag effectively processes various electrical data and their features, clarifies the cause of the multi-stage voltage sag, and subsequently determines the updated value of the fault clearing time of the relay protection device and the retrofit information of the electric power stabilizing device, which can achieve intelligence of multi-stage voltage sag state control, and ensure stability of the power system.
In 210, a power quality monitoring device may be controlled to read voltage sag data and fault clearing information based on an acquisition control instruction issued by the voltage sag analysis device and the voltage sag data may be sent to a power terminal device via a communication line.
The voltage sag data refers to data related to voltage fluctuations.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag data may include values of voltage rise/fall over multiple time periods at a location of a voltage monitoring device.
The fault clearing information refers to data related to a fault clearing action taken by a relay protection device and/or an electric power stabilizing device in response to a voltage sag occurring in a line. The fault clearing action refers to an operation such as isolating or disconnecting a fault component from a power system after a fault occurs in the power system. The fault component refers to a component that causes the voltage sag in the line, for example, a distributed generation device that trips during a short-circuit fault.
In some embodiments, the fault clearing information may include at least one of a fault clearing time, a fault duration, a fault starting time, and a fault ending time.
The fault clearing time refers to the duration from a start of the fault clearing action by the relay protection device and/or the electric power stabilizing device to a completion of fault clearing. The fault clearing refers to return of a line voltage magnitude to a standard range after the fault clearing action occurs. The standard range may be preset.
The fault duration refers to the duration from identifying the occurrence of the voltage sag in the line to fault clearing.
The fault starting time refers to a time when the voltage sag in the line is identified.
The fault ending time refers to a time when the fault is cleared.
The acquisition control instruction refers to an instruction used to control the power quality monitoring device to read data. In some embodiments, the acquisition control instruction may include at least one of a data reading cycle, a reading position sequence, and a reading type.
The data reading cycle refers to a time interval at which the power quality monitoring device reads data.
The reading position sequence refers to a sequence in which power quality monitoring devices at different grid locations read data.
The reading type refers to a mode in which the power quality monitoring device reads data. In some embodiments, the reading type may include continuous reading and intermittent reading. The continuous reading refers to continuously reading data at intervals of the data reading cycle, for example, reading data every 1 minute. The intermittent reading refers to reading data continuously at intervals of the data reading cycle after a preset duration, for a preset count of times. For example, reading data every 1 minute after every 10 minutes, for 5 consecutive readings. The preset duration and the preset count of times may be set in advance.
In some embodiments, the acquisition control instruction may be generated by the voltage sag analysis device based on historical fault information of different grid locations and sent to power quality monitoring devices located at the different grid locations.
In some embodiments, the historical fault information is stored in a voltage sag data storage device, and the voltage sag analysis device may retrieve the historical fault information of the different grid locations based on the voltage sag data storage device. The historical fault information refers to a count of occurrences of voltage sags at different grid locations over a historical period.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may determine at least one of the data reading cycle, the reading position sequence, and the reading type for the power quality monitoring devices located at the different grid locations based on the historical fault information of the different grid locations, and generate the acquisition control instruction. In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may determine the data reading cycle for the power quality monitoring device at a particular grid location based on a preset base cycle and a historical frequency of faults at the grid location. For example, a ratio of the preset base cycle to the historical frequency of faults may be determined as the data reading cycle. The historical frequency of faults may characterize the frequency of voltage sags at a grid location over a historical period. The preset base cycle refers to an initial data reading cycle and may be preset.
In some embodiments, the historical frequency of faults may be directly proportional to the count of voltage sag occurrences at the corresponding grid location. For example, the voltage sag analysis device may determine the historical frequency of faults for a grid location based on the count of voltage sag occurrences at the grid location using a preset formula, as shown in an equation (42):
Wherein Q represents the historical frequency of faults at the grid location, e denotes a natural constant, s denotes the count of voltage sag occurrences at the grid location, and N denotes a preset value. N may be preset.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may determine the reading cycle based on the historical frequency of faults. In some embodiments, when the historical frequency of faults exceeds a frequency threshold, the voltage sag analysis device may determine the reading cycle as the continuous reading; when the historical frequency of faults does not exceed the frequency threshold, the voltage sag analysis device may determine the reading cycle as the intermittent reading. The frequency threshold may be preset.
It may be understood that the more frequent the occurrence of voltage sags at a grid location over a historical period, the more frequent the monitoring may be. Therefore, the shorter the data reading cycle and the more inclined towards continuous reading the reading cycle may be.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may be configured to preliminarily sort the grid locations based on grid location levels, further sort a plurality of power quality monitoring devices corresponding to a plurality of grid locations within a same grid location level based on a historical fault frequency, and determine a assorting result of the plurality of power quality monitoring devices as the reading position sequence. For example, the higher the grid location level, the earlier the corresponding grid location is sorted. As another example, the higher the historical fault frequency, the earlier the power quality monitoring device is sorted. The plurality of grid locations with the same level may be sorted based on a sum of historical fault frequencies of the power quality monitoring devices corresponding to the plurality of grid locations within the same level. The higher the sum of the historical fault frequencies, the earlier the sorting of the grid location level.
The grid location levels may be predefined. For example, the higher an importance of a line where the grid location is located within the grid, the higher the grid location level. For example, based on the importance of the line within the grid, the line may be classified into a main line, a sub-main line, a branch line, and a branch sub-line, with the main line being the most important and the branch sub-line being the least important. Therefore, the grid location level of the main line is the highest and the grid location level of the branch sub-line is the lowest.
It may be understood that the higher the importance of the line where the grid location is located within the grid, the higher the priority for data collection may be, and consequently, the earlier the position is in the reading position sequence.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may send the acquisition control instruction to the corresponding power quality monitoring device located at at least one different grid locations through the power terminal device.
In 220, a cause of the multi-stage voltage sag at the at least one different grid locations may be determined based on the voltage sag data of the at least one different grid locations obtained from the power terminal device.
The cause of the multi-stage voltage sag refers to a reason leading to the multi-stage voltage sag in the power system. In some embodiments, the cause of the multi-stage voltage sag may include a first cause and a second cause.
In some embodiments, the first cause refers to the tripping of one or more distributed generation devices in the power system during a short-circuit fault, resulting in a loss of power supply to the grid.
In some embodiments, the second cause refers to the tripping of relay protection devices on two sides of a fault line at different times during the short-circuit fault, leading to changes in grid topology. The fault line refers to the line experiencing a voltage sag.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may be configured to determine the cause of the multi-stage voltage sag at the at least one different grid locations based on the voltage sag data in various ways. For example, the voltage sag analysis device may query a cause table based on the voltage sag data of the different grid locations to find a corresponding reference voltage sag cause, which is then determined as the cause of the multi-stage voltage sag at the at least one different grid locations.
The cause table may be predefined. In some embodiments, the cause table may include multiple sets of voltage sag data of the at least one different grid locations along with the corresponding reference voltage sag cause, which may include the first cause and/or the second cause. Each set of voltage sag data of the at least one different grid locations includes voltage sag data collected by a plurality of power quality monitoring devices located at different grid locations.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may determine the cause of multi-stage voltage sag at the at least one different grid locations based on a correspondence between the cause of the multi-stage voltage sag and a voltage sag characteristic. The correspondence between the multi-stage voltage sag and the voltage sag characteristic may be obtained by pre-analysis. For example, a characteristic of a right-side voltage magnitude being smaller than a left-side voltage magnitude at an occurrence of a voltage sag may correspond to the first cause, while a characteristic of the right-side voltage magnitude being greater than the left-side voltage magnitude at an occurrence of a voltage sag may correspond to the second cause.
The voltage sag characteristic may represent the characteristic of the cause of the multi-stage voltage sag. In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may determine the voltage sag characteristic based on the voltage sag data of the at least one different grid locations. For example, after the tripping of a distributed generation device, causing further power loss in the power system, the monitored voltage magnitude may decrease further. At this moment, if the right-side voltage magnitude at the voltage sag occurrence time is smaller than the left-side voltage magnitude, it indicates a voltage sag caused by the first cause. As another example, if a relay protection device on one side of a fault line isolates a fault component from the power system, causing an increase in the monitored voltage magnitude, then the occurrence time of the voltage sag corresponds to a voltage sag caused by the second cause when the right-side voltage magnitude is greater than the left-side voltage magnitude.
In some embodiments, the at least one different grid locations may include a voltage transient point. The voltage transient point refers to a point in the grid locations where the voltage sag exceeds a preset voltage threshold. The voltage threshold may be set in advance.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may be configured to obtain a plurality of voltage transient points by detecting a voltage sag waveform using a preset detection process and divide the voltage sag waveform into a plurality of waveform segments based on the plurality of voltage transient points. The voltage sag analysis device may be further configured to determine a voltage value for each of the plurality of waveform segments based on a preset algorithm, construct a target vector based on voltage values of each of two adjacent waveform segments of the plurality of waveform segments, and determine, based on an element type of the target vector, the cause of the voltage sag at different transient points using a preset determination rule.
The voltage sag waveform refers to a waveform that represents changes in voltage values on the line.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may detect the voltage sag waveform using the preset detection process to obtain the plurality of voltage transient points. The preset detection process may include a waveform point detection technique.
Waveform segments refer to waveforms between adjacent voltage transient points in the voltage sag waveform.
In some embodiments, the preset algorithm for determining the voltage values of the plurality of waveform segments may be set in advance. For example, in some embodiments, the preset algorithm may be represented by an equation (1):
Wherein ff denotes a sampling rate, f denotes a current frequency, xj denotes a j-th value in a voltage value sequence, j is in a range of [1, k], wherein k denotes a count of sampling points, um, denotes the voltage value of an m-th waveform segment, and m is in a range of [1, s]. The voltage value sequence refers to a sequence composed of voltage values obtained from a plurality of samples.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may construct the target vector based on the voltage values of each of two adjacent waveform segments of the plurality of waveform segments using a preset construction rule. In some embodiments, the preset construction rule may be represented by an equation (2):
Wherein W represents the target vector, wx represents the vector element of an x-th waveform segment, and x>1. s+1 represents the count of transient points, and ux represents the voltage value of the x-th waveform segment. The x-th waveform segment refers to the waveform segment between an x+1th transient point and an x-th transient point.
The preset determination rule may be used to determine causes of the voltage sag at different transient points. The preset determination rule may be predefined. In some embodiments, the preset determination rule may include: when the vector element wx is 0, it indicates that the cause of the voltage sag at the corresponding transient point is the first cause; when the vector element wx is 1, it indicates that the cause of the voltage sag at the corresponding transient point is the second cause.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, based on the target vector constructed from the voltage values of each adjacent two waveform segments, the voltage sag characteristic at the transient point can be intuitively understood, making it more convenient to determine the causes of the voltage sags at different transient points.
In 230, an updated value of a fault clearing time of a relay protection device and retrofit location information of an electric power stabilizing device may be determined based on the fault clearing information.
The updated value of the fault clearing time refers to the newly determined fault clearing time.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may determine the updated value of the fault clearing time of the relay protection device based on the fault clearing information. For example, the voltage sag analysis device may extract the fault clearing time from the fault clearing information. In response to a determination that the fault clearing time exceeds a clearance threshold, the voltage sag analysis device may determine a redundant clearance duration. Then, based on a relationship between the redundant clearance duration and the updated value of the fault clearing time, the updated value may be determined. In response to a determination that the fault clearing time does not exceed the clearance threshold, the updated value remains the same as the original fault clearing time. The clearance threshold may be predefined. The redundant clearance duration refers to the duration when the fault clearing time exceeds the clearance threshold.
The correspondence between the redundant clearance duration and the updated value of the fault clearing time may be predefined. In some embodiments, the correspondence may include a negative correlation between the updated value of the fault clearing time and the redundant clearance duration. The longer the redundant clearance duration, the shorter the updated value of the fault clearing time.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may determine the updated value of the fault clearing time based on a fault line and historical fault clearing information using a preset update algorithm. The historical fault clearing information refers to the fault clearing information corresponding to the fault line during a historical period. An exemplary preset update algorithm may be represented by an equation (42):
Wherein G represents the updated value of the fault clearing time, T1, . . . , Tn represent the fault clearing times of the fault line corresponding to different historical periods in the historical fault clearing information 1, . . . , n, respectively. q1, . . . , qn represent weights of the historical fault clearing information 1, . . . , n corresponding to the fault line, respectively. n denotes a count of pieces of historical fault clearing information corresponding to the fault line, and M denotes a count of weights after removing weights whose value is zero.
In some embodiments, the weights of the pieces of historical fault clearing information may be determined based on a device failure rate. In some embodiments, the weights of historical fault clearing information may be inversely proportional to the device failure rate of the corresponding relay protection devices. The higher the device failure rate, the smaller the weight. In response to the device failure rate associated with the fault clearing information being less than a predetermined threshold, the voltage sag analysis device may determine the weight of the historical fault clearing information corresponding to the fault lines as zero. The threshold for the device failure rate may be predefined.
The device failure rate may characterize the damage to the power terminal device after a voltage sag. In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may determine the device failure rate by determining a ratio of a count of damaged power terminal devices after a voltage sag to a total count of power terminal devices. The count of the damaged power terminal devices and the total count of the power terminal devices may be input by a grid operator. More descriptions of the power terminal device and the grid operator may be found in the aforementioned relevant descriptions.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may obtain the historical fault clearing information and the corresponding device failure rate from the voltage sag data storage device.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the historical fault clearing information occurring at different locations in the power grid can effectively reflect the operational reliability of the relay protection devices corresponding to the locations.

In some embodiments, an input of the location assessment model may include the graph structure, and an output of the location assessment model may include the retrofit location information. Specifically, a node output of the location assessment model corresponds to the retrofit location information. For example, the node output of the location assessment model may be 0 or 1, wherein 0 indicates that the corresponding grid location of the node does not require retrofitting of the electric power stabilizing device, and 1 indicates that the corresponding grid location of the node requires retrofitting of the electric power stabilizing device.
In some embodiments, the voltage sag analysis device may train the location assessment model based on a large number of second training samples labeled with second labels, employing techniques such as gradient descent. In some embodiments, the second training samples include sample graph structures. The sample graph structures may include historical graphs determined based on historical data, wherein nodes and node features and edges and edge features of the historical graphs are similar to the nodes and the node features and the edges and the edge features of the graph structure. The second labels may represent historical retrofit location information.
The historical retrofit location information refers to the retrofit location information corresponding to the historical graphs in the historical data. In some embodiments, the historical retrofit location information may be represented numerically by 1 and 0. When a node in the historical graph is labeled as 1, it indicates that the corresponding grid location of the node requires retrofitting of the electric power stabilizing device; when the node is labeled as 0, it indicates that the corresponding grid location of the node does not require retrofitting of the electric power stabilizing device.
In some embodiments, the second labels may be obtained through manual annotation. For example, when a relay protection device node in the historical graph fails, the historical retrofit location information corresponding to the node may be determined as 1. When the electric power stabilizing device was not retrofitted during a historical time period and subsequently, a fault line node reappears with the voltage sag leading to damage to the power terminal device, the historical retrofit location information corresponding to the node may be determined as 1.
