Abstract:
Objectives In order to improve the rapidity and accuracy of fault location for island and reef power supply systems composed of multiple distributed power sources, a fault location method based on an immune model and improved immune algorithm is proposed.
Methods First, the immune model is used to divide the island and reef power supply system 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 in order to minimize the fault determination range. The fault points of the cell section are then coded and the antibody population is generated by the improved immune algorithm, enabling the fault section to be quickly and accurately located for a second time, thus greatly reducing the calculation load.
Results According to the Matlab simulation results of a typical island and reef power supply system, the immune model and improved immune algorithm combination can realize rapid fault location under various fault conditions, with such advantages as high positioning accuracy, light calculation load and fast solution speed.
Conclusions The results of this study can provide useful references for the design of island and reef power supply systems.
