Abstract
THE PURPOSE. Development of digital models to determine the modes of double ground faults in 6-10 kV overhead signaling lines supplying signaling, centralization and automatic blocking facilities.METHODS. To create the models, methods of multiphase modeling of electric power systems were used, based on the use of lattice equivalent circuits from RLCelements connected according to complete graph circuits. For modeling, the industrial software package Fazonord, developed at the Irkutsk State Transport University, was used.RESULTS. The developed models provide correct accounting of all factors influencing the modes of double ground faults, including increased electromagnetic influences of the traction network. In contrast to known approaches, the dynamics of changes in these influences caused by variations in traction loads during train movement are modeled.CONCLUSION. The proposed approach to modeling double ground fault modes is universal and can be used for standard traction power supply systems, as well as promising high-voltage traction networks. The results obtained can be used in practice to configure relay protection devices for overhead signaling lines in order to reliably detect double ground fault modes and take measures to eliminate them. In addition, the modeling methodology presented in the article can be used when selecting measures to improve the reliability of power supply to signaling and automatic blocking facilities that ensure the safety of train traffic, as well as to develop methods and algorithms for determining distances to places of double ground faults in overhead power lines feeding signaling facilities , centralization and autoblocking. The presented results confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed approach for modeling double ground fault modes.
