Abstract:

In this article, a method based on output currents is proposed to diagnose short-circuit faults of single or double switches in current source converter. The method only needs the feedback currents and their corresponding reference signals that can be obtained from the main control system. This diagnosis algorithm needs to calculate the average values of the feedback currents and the average absolute values of the current reference signals in one power frequency cycle. Diagnosis variables can be obtained from the ratio of the two values. Then, three detection thresholds are set to judge and locate the short-circuit power switches. The method can be implemented in the main control program directly, without additional voltage sensors and other auxiliary detection devices. Meanwhile, the method is simple and easy to implement in practice. The effectiveness of proposed algorithm is validated with experiments.
