138 results about "Current transformer saturation" patented technology

When the primary current is so high that the core cannot handle any more flux, the CT is said to be in saturation. In saturation, there is no flux change when the primary current changes (as the core is already carrying maximum flux). Since there is no flux change there is no secondary current flow.

Fault location using measurements from two ends of a line

The present invention relates to a method to locate a fault in a section of a transmission line using measurements of current, voltage and angles between the phases at a first (A) and a second (B) end of said section. The invention is characterised by the steps of, after the occurrence of a fault along the section, calculating a distance (dA, dB) to a fault dependent on a fault current measured at one of said first and second ends and phase voltages measured at both of said first and second ends (A, B), where the distance to fault is calculated from the end (A or B) where the fault current is measured. The invention is particularly suitable when a current transformer at either of the first or second ends (A, B) is saturated. If so, then, a distance (d) to a fault is calculated dependent on a fault current measured at the non-affected end and phase voltages measured at both the affected end and the non-affected end.

Current transformer saturation recognition method for differential protection

The invention discloses a current transformer saturation recognition method based on the half-cycle integral characteristic of a differential current. The method is suitable for current differential protection of main equipment or power transmission lines. During an internal fault, a sliding data window half-cycle integral result of a differential current sampling value sequence is monotonically increased; when a current transformer is saturated during an external fault, the sliding data window half-cycle integral result of the differential current sampling value sequence has an obvious inflection point and is increased first and then decreased according to the variation tendency. According to the characteristic, after the fault is started, the variation tendency of the half-cycle integral value of the differential current is continuously judged in each fundamental wave cycle; once an obvious inflection point of the half-cycle integral value is found, the differential current is determined to be a false differential current caused by saturation of the current transformer; if no obvious inflection point of the half-cycle integral value is found, recognition and judgment are continuously carried out till saturation is determined, or the fault is removed and a complete protection device is reset. The recognition method is simple in logic, small in calculation amount and free of complex setting.
