The Principle and Implementation of Protection for Active Distribution Network Adapting to DG Arbitrary Access
摘要
There are emerging challenges posed by the integration of a large number of distributed generations (DGs) into power distribution networks. Thus this paper proposes a novel protection that combines negative-sequence quantity sorting with 5G communication. For information exchange, a 5G communication method with timestamps is proposed, further reducing the synchronous communication requirements of the proposed protection scheme by leveraging the communication characteristics of distribution networks. Simulation results demonstrate the successful application of the proposed criteria to lines with unpredictable branches without relying on data synchronization communication. The new protection scheme significantly enhances fault clearance speed, ensuring that the fault’s maximum response time remains within 50 ms. In comparison to amplitude differential protection, the proposed protection exhibits stronger adaptability and operational stability against unpredictable branches.
