Abstract:
Objectives For the island power system composed of multiple distributed power sources, in order to improve the rapidity and accuracy of fault location, a fault location method for island power system based on immune model and improved immune algorithm is proposed.
Methods Firstly, the immune model is used to divide the island power supply system section into several cell sections containing monitoring points. According to the monitored fault current signal, the cell section where the fault point is located is determined to minimize the fault determination range. Then, the fault points of the cell section are coded, and the antibody population is generated by the improved immune algorithm, so that the fault section can be quickly and accurately located twice, and the calculation amount is greatly reduced.
Results According to the Matlab simulation results of the typical island power supply system, the algorithm combining the immune model and the improved immune can realize the rapid fault location of the island power system under different fault conditions, and has the advantages of high positioning accuracy, small calculation amount and fast solution speed.
Conclusions The research results can provide reference for the design of island power system.
