1       Summary

In electric power system，ferroresonance occurs frequently. During ferroresonance, there will be overvoltage, which is a serious threat to the safety of the system. Ferroresonance overvoltage can occur in any system between 3Kv. to 220Kv.. Especially in network of 35Kv. and below, nearly all inner overvoltages are caused by ferroresonance. Overvoltage caused by ferroresonance lasts long and may long exist. In the sub-frequency resonance, the voltage is usually not high, but the current of PT is large. This can make PT explode easily for its overheating. During the fundamental and harmonic resonance, the current is usually not large, but the overvoltage is very high, which often destroys the insulation of equipments and causes serious accidents.

Series SCM-controlling Harmonic Elimination Device is a new intelligent power harmonic elimination device. The way to use it is simple and convenient. It doesn’t need any maintenance. The device can eliminate ferroresonance of all frequencies rapidly with high accuracy. Meanwhile, it can print relative information or send it through communication interface to the monitoring system of a higher level according to users’ demand, which applies to unattended stations.

4       Operating Principle

There are great amount of iron-core inductors in power system, such as transformers, voltage transformer, Arc extinguishing and parallel compensation reactor. Most of them are nonlinear elements. Together with the capacitance of system, they make up many complex oscillator circuits, which can stimulate a long-lasting ferroresonance overvoltage. The high overvoltage and the large overcurrent during ferroresonance can easily cause damage to the insulation of equipment and endanger the safety of operators under serious circumstances.

       HDKX-196 Series SCM-controlling Harmonic Elimination Device monitors the voltage and frequency of PT opening triangle point at voltage transformer in real time. When ferroresonance occurs, the device will start non-contact harmonic elimination elements to make great damping so as to eliminate ferroresonance.
