  • Publication number: 20230361552
    Abstract: The embodiments of the present invention disclose a line protection method and a related apparatus for a flexible grounding system of a power distribution network. The method comprises outputting a first compensation voltage by a voltage source of a flexible grounding device of each line of a target power distribution network in the case where a ground fault occurs in the target power distribution network; starting to calculate the zero-sequence impedance of each line in real time by the zero-sequence impedance protection device; after the first compensation voltage is output for a first output duration, outputting a second compensation voltage; calculating the zero-sequence impedance of each line in real time by the line zero-sequence impedance protection device; determining a fault line by the zero-sequence impedance protection device, and cutting off the fault line to isolate the ground fault after a trip for a preset time delay.

  • Publication number: 20230280386
    Abstract: A method and a system for locating a fault of a complex power line are provided. Several monitoring points on the complex power line can be obtained by providing several traveling wave head monitoring sensors on the complex power line. The complex power line is transformed into coordinates in conjunction with an arrival moment and a location corresponding to the monitoring points, thereby establishing a trunk line fault-locating equation related to a line location, the arrival moment, and a traveling wave propagation speed, from which a first fault point can thus be derived simply and quickly. If a fault point is located on a branch line, a branch line fault-locating equation is then established to derive a second fault point. Furthermore, the first fault point and the second fault point serve as a basis for deriving a target fault point of the complex power line.

  • Patent number: 7605279
    Abstract: Provided is a production process by which a novel alicyclic oxetane compound which has an oxetane ring, has excellent light transmission in the near ultraviolet region, and is useful as a cationically polymerizable monomer can be easily obtained. The production process which is for obtaining an alicyclic oxetane compound includes subjecting an aromatic oxetane compound to nuclear hydrogenation in high-pressure hydrogen in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst. For example, when 4,4?-bis[(3-ethyloxetan-3-yl)methoxymethyl]biphenyl is used as the aromatic oxetane compound, 4,4?-bis[(3-ethyloxetan-3-yl)methoxymethyl]bicyclohexyl is obtained as the alicyclic oxetane compound.
