Abstract:The research on the identification of negative sequence sources is not only to find the dominant source, but also to quantify the responsibilities of each unbalanced user. The existing researches on the identification of negative sequence sources depend largely on the equivalent negative sequence impedance, and due to the large fluctuation of power system, the determination of negative sequence impedance parameters is difficultly to be solved. The proposed method avoids the problem of estimating the equivalent negative sequence impedance, and based on the established equivalent circuit and the principle of the distribution of negative sequence current in system analyzed by the combination with the actual situation, the measured parameters are taken as the foundation data to reduce the human interference in parameter estimation and to ensure the realtime performance and accuracy of calculation data. Thus the quantitative indicators of responsibility division of each negative sequence source can be quickly and easily obtained and compared. Finally, Matlab simulation model and actual calculation are adapted to verify the validity of the proposed method.
