Abstract

Large-scale integration of high-proportion new energy sources and continuous expansion of network scale complicate the transient characteristics of distribution networks. Conventional fault diagnosis methods suffer from insufficient feature extraction and weak capture of topological correlation, which degrade diagnosis accuracy. To tackle this issue, this paper proposes a complex fault diagnosis strategy for distribution networks based on analysis of the dynamic variation law of zero-sequence current. First, multivariate variational mode decomposition (MVMD) is adopted to process zero-sequence current signals, which effectively fuses multi-dimensional zero-sequence current data and fully excavates fault features. Moreover, the zebra optimization algorithm is utilized to optimize the parameters of MVMD for further improving feature extraction performance. Subsequently, a graph convolutional neural network is employed to extract temporal features from the processed waveforms, enhancing the model’s recognition capability under high-resistance faults and typical disturbance conditions. Finally, multiple IEEE test systems are used for verification, which demonstrates the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.
