Popis: In order to improve the fault location accuracy of power cables, the two-side method is used for fault location. The main factors affecting the cable fault accuracy of the double-ended fault location method are the wave speed of traveling waves transmitted in the cable and the time difference between the traveling waves arriving at the monitoring equipment. In fact, traveling wave signals with different frequencies propagate at different wave speeds, and the use of fixed wave speeds for positioning calculations will inevitably cause positioning errors. First, the center frequency spectrum method is used to calculate the wave speed, and different wave speeds are used for different types of cables, so as to reduce the positioning error caused by the wave speed. Then, the devices on both sides use high-precision GPS to synchronize the time to reduce the natural error. For the time difference between the detected traveling waves reaching the devices on both sides, the triangle algorithm can be used to find the starting point for time difference calculation, thereby constructing a new cable fault location algorithm. Finally, a large number of PSCAD simulations and field discharge tests of cable grounding were carried out. The simulation results and test results verified the feasibility and superiority of this algorithm.
