Meanwhile, PD detection and monitoring is an effective way to ensure the safe and stable operation of the HV cables. Due to the limited bandwidth and the poor anti-interference ability of the current PD sensors, there are a lot of interference signals in the detected PD signals. To overcome the challenge, a novel built-in metal foil sensor for PD detection of HV cables is presented in the paper. The influencing factors of the PD detecting sensitivity, which are the single electrode and the two electrodes, the size of the electrodes, the shape of the single electrode and the distance between the two electrodes, are evaluated. The experimental data is accumulated to determine the parameters of the metal foil sensor. Experimental results show that the built-in metal foil sensor has excellent efficiency in PD signal reception in both laboratory and experimental base, which is applicable for on-line PD detecting of HV cables.","PeriodicalId":241317,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE PES Asia-Pacific Power and Energy Engineering Conference (APPEEC)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131956525","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on this topological mathematical model, this paper presents a hybrid control method of grid voltage feedforward and load voltage feedback, which can compensate the large capacity, long, deep and asymmetric voltage sags in the medium voltage distribution network. In addition, in order to solve the problem of DC bias caused by the circulating current between multiple windings on the secondary side of transformer, a circulating current suppression algorithm is proposed.

This paper aims to propose a feasible planning optimization model for the communication network based on the evaluation of all electrical nodes’ importance in the physical distribution network. This solution not only meets the current technical requirements, but also considers the possible expansion of communication network in the future.

Currently, there is increasing demand of synchronous compensators to provide system stability in a grid with high share of converter-based renewable generation. To define the requirements of GCB to be installed between the synchronous compensator and the step-up transformer, it is utmost important to understand the characteristics of the current fed by a synchronous compensator after a three-phase short-circuit at its terminals. The main difference between synchronous generator and synchronous compensator, in this respect, is the loading conditions. This paper compares the effect of pre-fault loading of synchronous generator and synchronous compensator on the short-circuit current characteristics over their complete operating range and emphasizes the importance of zero power factor loading at overexcited and underexcited operating point in defining the requirements of GCB. Furthermore, analytical equations are described for the calculation of short-circuit current fed by synchronous compensator under pre-fault loading conditions. A case study is presented to demonstrate the capability of the GCB to interrupt fault currents which show delayed current zeros (DCZ) taking into account SF6 and vacuum extinguishing technologies.","PeriodicalId":241317,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE PES Asia-Pacific Power and Energy Engineering Conference (APPEEC)","volume":"81 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122890591","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
