Comparison between traditional single-phase auto reclosing and adaptive technique based on harmonic content measurement

摘要

This study presents the results of single-phase auto reclosing technique tests, comparing the performance of traditional procedure and fast adaptive procedure. The last is based on the measurement of voltage harmonic content on the transmission line faulty phase terminals. The transmission system used was modelled on the real-time digital simulator with a distance relay and a quality meter to more realistically implement the reclosing techniques. The studied system was based on an actual Brazilian 500 kV transmission system. This study highlights the advantages of using the adaptive technique opposite to the use of traditional manoeuvre.
