Introduction

Analysis of the core content of the standard

As the first technical specification in the power industry specifically for protective devices in DC power supply systems, this document focuses on solving the problem of over-tripping caused by confusion in the selection of protective devices and insufficient level matching in DC systems of substations and power plants.


Comparison of standard frameworks

Dimensions DL/T 2602-2023 DL/T 5044 GB/T 14048.2
Scope of application DC system of valve-regulated lead-acid batteries DC system design of power engineering General low-voltage circuit breakers
Technical focus Differential coordination of protective devices System architecture design Basic performance of circuit breakers
Innovative content Specifications for electronic time-delay DC circuit breakers Classification of power supply modes General requirements for AC/DC

Detailed explanation of key technical requirements

4.1 Classification of protective devices

The standard divides protective devices into:

  • Fuse: Suitable for feeder end protection
  • DC circuit breakers: Include mechanical/electronic time-delay types

Engineering selection principles: It is recommended to use three-section DC circuit breakers for centralized radial power supply systems. Their long delay, short delay and instantaneous protection characteristics should meet the short-circuit current estimation requirements in Appendix C.


5.2 Selective verification method

Take a 500kV substation as an example to verify the differential coordination of the battery group export circuit breaker and the feeder circuit breaker:

  1. Test the short delay characteristics of the upper circuit breaker (typical value 50-100ms)
  2. Measure the full disconnection time of the lower circuit breaker (should be ≤30ms)
  3. Verify that the action timing difference when the fault current is 2000A is ≥20ms

Implementation suggestions

Transition plan for the old and new systems

It is recommended to adopt a phased implementation for the transformation of the existing system:

Phase Work content Period
1 Replacement of protection devices for key circuits (such as relay protection devices) 3 months
2 Complete station differential coordination verification 6 months

Technology development trend

With the maturity of solid-state circuit breaker technology, future standards may add:

  • Microsecond fault cutoff requirements
  • Adaptive protection algorithm verification
  • Digital twin test method
