Abstract
Pumped storage power stations play an great role in promoting new energy consumption, ensuring the safety of power grid, building clean, low-carbon, safe and efficient energy system, and has a broad development prospect. SFC is the most important start-up mode of pumped storage unit, and the output transformer is an important equipment of SFC system, which needs to be equipped with reliable and fast differential protection to ensure its safe and reliable operation. The current frequency varies from 0 to 50Hz during SFC start-up, so the conventional transformer differential protection can not adapt. In this paper, the output transformer differential protection technology is studied according to the electrical characteristics and short circuit fault characteristics of SFC start-up process, the high precision frequency algorithm and the RMS integration algorithm with compensation are proposed to realize the precise measurement of frequency and amplitude, and the ultra-low frequency CT saturation identification technology is proposed to realize the whole process protection of the output transformer from start-up to grid-connection.
