To address the problem of synchronous frequency resonance (SFR) caused by VSG, a small-signal coupling model of active power-frequency and reactive power-voltage is established, the impact of coupling on SFR is analyzed, and the intrinsic causes of SFR are revealed. Then, a virtual impedance feedforward control method is proposed, where the parameters of virtual impedance are designed by comprehensively considering the bandwidth and damping of the active power loop, achieving a good SFR suppression effect. Finally, compared with the traditional virtual impedance method, the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by simulations and experiments.

    The medium voltage DC distribution network is a networking method for efficiently interconnecting different types of distributed power sources and DC loads.In the application scenario of full DC high voltage,aiming at the power supply of secondary equipment without relying on external AC power source, the traditional AC self-powered supply technology based on the mutual inductance principle is difficult to apply.Therefore,a high step-down ratio isolated DC/DC circuit is proposed.The self-powered supply for secondary equipment is realized through module input series and output parallel (ISOP) in medium voltage DC distribution networks.At the same time,a dual closed-loop control strategy based on PI-MPC is designed to improve the fast dynamic response of the voltage and current of the power supply.Finally,simulation analysis and prototype experiments are conducted.The results show that the proposed circuit and control strategy effectively improve the dynamic response performance of the system.

    Under the backdrop of the new power system,customer directrix load (CDL)-based demand response,as an efficient demand-side regulation mechanism,has garnered widespread attention.However,existing research primarily focuses on grid dispatch and fails to fully account for the complex challenges faced by virtual power plant (VPP) in decomposing and transmitting macro-CDLs to heterogeneous resources.A CDL decomposition and dispatch method based on users’ electricity consumption characteristics is proposed.Firstly,a resource response feature evaluation system is constructed,where the multidimensional feature extraction and dimensionality reduction are employed to identify electricity consumption patterns,and the clustering algorithms are utilized to classify heterogeneous resources.Subsequently,an optimization model aimed at minimizing regulation costs is established to decompose the macro-CDL into personalized sub-CDLs tailored to different consumption patterns.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method effectively reduces regulation costs and improves response accuracy,providing decision-making support for VPP participating in demand response.

    To address the challenges of poor nonlinear adaptability and inaccurate interval estimation in substation short-term load prediction,an interval prediction method integrating adaptive diffusion kernel density estimation (ADKDE) with long short-term memory networks (LSTM) is proposed.Historical load and meteorological data are fused,where ADKDE method analyzes error distributions and LSTM network temporal features to construct prediction intervals at a 95% confidence level.Experimental results based on a 220 kV substation dataset demonstrate that the proposed model achieves an average prediction interval coverage probability (PICP) of 0.914 across four datasets,while reducing the prediction interval average width (PIAW) by 20%-30% compared to the comparison models.The proposed method effectively quantifies load uncertainty,providing reliable interval predictions to support power grid planning.

    The busbar is the core device of collecting and distributing electric energy in substation.When the busbar fault occurs, the failure to clear it promptly will damage numerous equipment and even undermine system stability in severe cases. Therefore, it is very necessary to set up a busbar protection with reliable operation and strong selectivity, which is also required to quickly detect the fault within the busbar range and selectively remove the fault in time without expanding the power failure range.A rare case of 10 kV busbar protection misoperating when the crossing fault occurs due to the wrong setting of the internal differential current calculation program of the microcomputer protection is analyzed. The relevant measures are put forward.A busbar protection verification method which can check the internal calculation program of the protection device is designed accordingly, which has achieved favorable results in practical applications.

    A model was established using the PSCAD simulation software to analyze the variation laws of the circuit breaker's fracture recovery voltage and load capacitor plate voltage caused by restrike, non-sustained disruptive discharge (NSDD) and other factors after the circuit breaker interrupted single-phase and three-phase capacitive currents. Based on the simulation results, the test circuit was modified. Using the improved circuit, the capacitive breaking tests of the circuit breaker were conducted with the test of interrupting the rated cable charging current as an example. The test results were consistent with the simulation results. Meanwhile, combined with the latest provisions on class C2 circuit breakers in GB 1984—2024, some problems arising during the testing process of class C2 circuit breakers were discussed in detail.

    Grid-forming control technology provides an effective solution for improving the dynamic stability of power grids by simulating the inertia characteristics of synchronous machines through converter control systems.In photovoltaic inverters,the inertia simulation is achieved by controlling the DC voltage and utilizing the energy stored in the DC capacitor.Conventional grid simulators often focus on AC-side grid characteristics ignoring the impact of the DC-side power source for photovoltaic inverters,which makes it unable to meet the testing requirements for AC-DC coordinated control strategies of grid forming photovoltaic inverters.An innovative scheme for an AC-DC dual-port operating condition simulation test platform is proposed.By synchronously simulating the AC-side grid voltage,frequency and impedance characteristics,as well as the DC-side photovoltaic power generation dynamic characteristics, a full-condition simulation method for grid-connected testing of grid-forming photovoltaic inverters is constructed.

    After a certain type of relay is stored in a low-temperature environment of -55 ℃, there exists a problem that the release voltage decreases significantly or even fails. Through problem investigation, a thermal-structural coupling simulation model is used to quantitatively analyze the deformation of the shaft-hole of the relay at low temperature. It is found that the deformation of the hole at low temperature is about 3 times that of the shaft, and the burrs exist in the holes of the failed products. The analysis shows that the deformation of parts will increase the shaft-hole pressure, leading to a simultaneous increase in friction, which ultimately reduces the product release voltage. By optimizing the minimum shaft-hole fit clearance of 3 batches of products from 0.01 mm to 0.02 mm and strengthening the control of burrs in the holes, the product qualification rate increased from 85% to over 98% verifying the effectiveness of the optimization scheme, which provides a new design direction for relay tolerance optimization and burr control in the shaft-hole design of drive components.
