The invention discloses a generator
stator ground fault positioning method. The method comprises the following steps: reading a generator terminal three-phase
voltage vector from a fault recorder; calculating a zero-sequence
voltage vector of the generator; determining a fault phase; calculating the advance angle of the zero-sequence
voltage vector advance fault phase
voltage vector of the generator; calculating a
feature vector angle of the generator; when the advance angle is smaller than the
feature vector angle, the ground fault occurs outside the generator; when the advance angle is equalto the
feature vector angle, the ground fault occurs at the
machine end; and when the advance angle is larger than the feature
vector angle, the ground fault is located in the generator, and the ratio of the number of windings from the ground fault to the generator end to the number of windings from a generator neutral point can be calculated. The method has the advantages that the ground transition resistance does not need to be measured when the method is used for positioning the generator
stator ground fault; according to the method, little fault information is needed for positioning the generator
stator ground fault, the calculation process is simple, the calculation amount is small, and the method is easy to use on site.
