Abstract

Sympathetic inrush is a phenomenon caused by the energization of the neighboring unloaded transformer. It may cause current differential protection to operate in the wrong way. Due to the lack of a special and continuous identification method, this paper studies the inherent feature of the two transformers during sympathetic inrush. Then a substation-area current signal based on the feature is constructed and its characteristics are analyzed. The time-frequency energy of the current signal is extracted based on the synchrosqueezed wavelet transform (SWT) since the SWT can process the transient signals accurately. The extracted energy is taken as the basis of the identification criterion. The simulation results conducted by PSCAD/EMTDC software prove the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed method.
