The Summary of HVDC Commutation Failure and Example Analysis

Abstract:

Commutation Failure is the common fault of HVDC, continuous commutation failure may lead to HVDC block and affect the stability of the power system. Especially in southern power grid, china, its special that the end of four HVDC system are all in Guangzhou. If the AC system occurs serious fault, all of the HVDC system may occur commutation Failure, HVDC block, even occurs large area blackout. So how to avoid continuous commutation failure and restore the stability of HVDC is important for AC and DC parallel power system. This paper based on the mechanism of commutation failure, analyze the reason of commutation failure and identification method, preventive measures. At last, this paper uses actual recorded wave to analyze the diversification of system after commutation failure.
