MULTI-TERMINAL DC POWER TRANSMISSION SYSTEM, COMMON CONTROL DEVICE THEREOF, AND FAULT RECOVERY METHOD FOR MULTI-TERMINAL DC POWER TRANSMISSION SYSTEM
DRIVE
February 9, 2023
In a multi-terminal DC power transmission system, a common control device is connected to a plurality of individual protective devices via a first communication network. Each of the individual protective devices is configured, when detecting change in current or voltage in a corresponding protection zone, to output a fault signal to the common control device via the first communication network and open the corresponding DC circuit breaker such that the corresponding protection zone is disconnected from the multi-terminal DC power grid and deenergized. The common control device estimates a fault occurrence zone where a fault occurs among a plurality of protection zones, based on a plurality of received fault signals. The common control device requests an individual protective device corresponding to a deenergized protection zone of the protection zones excluding the fault occurrence zone to reclose the DC circuit breaker such that the deenergized protection zone is restored.
