DESCRIPTION
The present invention relates to equipment and systems for the safety of goods and persons in the electrical field, more particularly the devices for protecting persons with residual current (or DDR), and relates to a differential protection device of the type B or B + comprising two independent detection modules operating in mutual competition.
Differential protection devices are commonly integrated in domestic or tertiary electrical installations, upstream or at the entrance of the various trees of the power supply circuits in place, or closer to the receivers to which they are respectively affected.
Typically, these electrical installations are powered by an alternating electrical network, and protection devices of the aforementioned type are intended primarily to ensure the safety of people by detecting as soon as possible any possible leak to the earth in one of the circuits or receivers. to protect. Such leaks are caused for example by direct contact of subjects with a non-insulated conductor or indirect contacts due to mass defects. These electrical incidents are likely to generate accidents, sometimes fatal, deterioration of equipment (s), fire starts, localized or generalized dysfunctions or the like.
Differential protection in the above context is in most cases fairly standardized.
For the detection of the alternative fault currents, the conductors of the circuit to be protected, or the conductors of the network or of the supply line of this circuit, pass into a torus of ferromagnetic material of a transformer whose aforementioned conductors form the primary and which has one or more windings (s) or secondary winding (s). The torus plays the role of a magnetic flux concentrator. Thus, in the event of a leak, resulting in an imbalance of the input and output currents in the conductors of the lines to be protected, the flux created in the toroid by this imbalance at the primary level induces a voltage in the secondary winding constituting a fault signal.
For the detection of continuous fault currents or DC, it is for example known to saturate excitation a soft magnetic core, crossed by the conductors of the line or network, by an alternating current. When a DC fault current occurs in the conductors, the symmetry of the saturation (positive / negative) is broken, the resulting temporary dissymmetry being proportional to the fault current. This method called "Fluxgate" can then provide to directly exploit the fault signal, or its frequency spectrum.
Another detection principle, developed and implemented by the applicant, consists in using a voltage transformer (for example a toroid) having a primary (excitation coil) applying a fixed voltage and a secondary one (measuring winding). ) having a variable transformation ratio, the value of the latter depending on the intensity of the fault current flowing through the core and resulting from the algebraic sum of the incoming and outgoing currents.
In the two types of detection of the aforementioned fault currents (alternating and continuous), the fault signal is used to directly control, or through dedicated electronics (signal processing stages), an actuator or the like (for example of the type relay). The latter in turn controls a trigger mechanism, cutoff or opening associated, or those of other protective devices of the installation.
Instead of the aforementioned toroid, it can also be provided, in agreement with other known variants of the state of the art, to implement other types of sensors or detectors suitable and intended to generate a signal fault when a differential fault occurs at the monitored network or plant.
These devices or differential protection devices may have varying characteristics. Thus, they are differentiable and characterized by their own sensitivity, which depends in particular on the type of electrical installation in which they are used and that they are intended to protect. Some of these devices are only capable of detecting leaks for alternating currents (AC type) or for continuous currents, while others, which are more complete, offer solutions that are also applicable to pulsed direct current (types A and F) and smoothed (type B).
Moreover, for the devices having the capacity to detect alternative fault currents, the upper detection limit frequency constitutes another criterion of distinction between the different types: frequencies up to a few tens of Hz: AC; frequencies up to 1kHz: type F; frequencies up to 2kHz: type B; frequencies up to 20kHz: type B +.
Type B + is, in relation to other types, specifically sensitive to defect or fault current frequencies conducive to fire, in addition to Type B functionalities.
Sophisticated Type B and B + devices currently rely on complex circuit constructs, which generally depend on the power supply of the network for their operation, with the expectation of at least one functional subset not dependent on this power supply to meet primary safety measures and regulations currently in force (see for example: DIN VDE 0664-400-version 2012).
A construction solution of a type B device is for example known from the French patent application No. 2 993 058 in the name of the applicant.
To reduce the constructive complexity of these sophisticated and versatile devices, while meeting the regulatory requirements, it has been proposed to realize them as a modular functional arrangement.
Thus, a first known solution of this type consists in providing a device comprising a first functional module performing a measurement / detection function of type B and a second functional module performing a measurement / detection function of type A / AC. The first module is active in the presence of a network supply and the second module becomes active only in the absence of mains power supply, the switchover between the two channels being realized using a monostable relay located at the input of the two channels and whose default position (in the absence of mains supply) corresponds to a transmission of the signal to the second module.
A second known solution consists in associating with a module performing a measurement / detection type A / AC, upstream of the latter, an active electronic stage (powered by the network) which performs a bandwidth correction and thus allows result in Type B measurement / detection in the presence of a mains supply. In the absence of such a power supply, the active electronic stage is short-circuited (for example by means of a selector relay powered by the network and whose default position corresponds to the derivation of the signal with respect to the electronic circuit), and the device then has a type A / AC operation.
Thus, these two known solutions to simplify the type B differential protection devices are not satisfactory given the operating limitations indicated above. Moreover, none of these two known solutions relates to a device of the type B +.
The present invention aims to overcome at least the main limitations mentioned above. For this purpose, it relates to a type B or B + differential protection device for detecting leakage current or fault in an electrical installation powered by at least two phase conductors of a network or by at least one conductor phase of a network and by a neutral conductor of said network, said device comprising two separate detection and control modules each comprising at least one signal processing stage adapted and intended, on the one hand, to exploit a signal of a fault generated by the occurrence of a differential fault at the level of the said network and, secondly, at controlling an electromagnetic actuator, relay or similar breaking or opening means of the device when the said fault signal exceeds a threshold value frequency-dependent predefined, each of said detection and control modules being functionally active or operative over a given frequency range characterized in that the two modules are independent of each other and arranged so as to constitute two detection channels, parallel and mutually independent, controlling the same actuator, relay or similar means, in that each module is connected to a specific and specific means for issuing a fault signal, in that a first of the two modules is a detection and control module which is functionally active or operational for frequencies of the fault signal from 0Hz to a few tens of Hz, this first module being powered by the network, and in that the second of the two modules is a detection and control module which is functionally active or operational for frequencies of the fault signal of a few tens of Hz to at least 1 kHz, this second module being autonomous in terms of power supply, and in particular not depending on the voltage of the network or the sector, the frequency of operational operation of the two aforementioned modules being partially overlapping. The invention will be better understood, thanks to the following description, which relates to a preferred embodiment, given by way of non-limiting example, and explained with reference to the appended diagrammatic drawings, in which: FIG. a schematic, functional and synoptic representation of a differential protection device according to one embodiment of the invention; FIG. 2 represents the evolution curves of the tripping thresholds (in mA) as a function of the frequency, of each of the two detection and control modules forming part of the device according to the invention, in agreement with the embodiment shown. FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 represents the evolution curve of the tripping threshold (in mA) as a function of the frequency of the overall device according to the invention, represented in FIG. 1 and combining the two modules.
The latter figure schematically shows the constitution of a type B or B + differential protection device 1 enabling the detection of leakage current or fault in an electrical installation powered by at least two phase 2 conductors of a network or by least one phase conductor of a network and a neutral conductor 2 'of said network.
This device 1 comprises two separate detection and control modules 3 and 3 'each comprising at least one signal processing stage 4, 4' adapted and intended, on the one hand, to exploit a fault signal generated by the appearance a differential defect at said network and, secondly, to control an electromagnetic actuator, relay or similar means of breaking or opening 5 of the device 1 when said fault signal exceeds a predefined threshold value dependent on the frequency, each of said detection and control modules 3, 3 'being functionally active or operational over a specific frequency range of its own.
According to the invention, it is provided that: the two modules 3 and 3 'are independent of each other and arranged so as to constitute two parallel and mutually independent detection channels, controlling the same actuator, relay or similar means 5, that each module 3, 3 'is connected to a specific and specific means 6, 6) for delivering a fault signal, a first 3 of the two modules 3, 3' is a detection and control module which is functionally active or operative for frequencies of the fault signal from 0 Hz to a few tens of Hz, this first module 3 being supplied by the network, and the second 3 'of the two modules 3, 3' is a detection and control module which is functionally active or operational for frequencies of the fault signal of a few tens of Hz to at least 1 kHz, this second module 3 'being autonomous in terms of power supply, and in particular not depending on the network voltage or the dry the frequency domains of operational operation of the two aforementioned modules 3 and 3 'being partially overlapping.
In accordance with an important characteristic of the invention, the two modules 3 and 3 'each have a preponderant operation with respect to the other module 3', 3 on mutually complementary parts of the total frequency domain of the fault currents covered by said device 1.
Thus, thanks to a particular modular combination of two functional bricks 3 and 3 'complementary in terms of frequency coverage, which are both permanently active in terms of detection and permanent competition for the control of the breaking means or opening 5, the invention proposes a device 1 sophisticated and optimal in terms of protection (level B or B +) while implementing modules 3 and 3 'whose level of complexity, and therefore the cost, is significantly less Student.
In addition, the parallel arrangement of the two modules 3 and 3 'allows direct access of each of them to the conductors 2, 2' to be monitored and therefore a clean detection, and a treatment and exploitation of the results of the independent detection.
Finally, in case of power failure, the second module 3 ', which is not dependent on the mains or mains supply, continues to fully ensure its protection function.
According to a characteristic of the invention, apparent from FIG. 1, the first detection and control module 3, depending on the mains voltage, is a sensitive differential protection module that responds to smooth, low-frequency continuous fault currents. and / or provided with a large DC offset, for example a fault current resulting from three phases as described in paragraph 9.2.16 of the IEC 62423 standard.
According to another characteristic of the invention, also apparent from FIG. 1, the second detection and control module 3 'is a type F differential protection module, possibly incorporating a fire-type function (therefore of the F + type). ), the operation of said second module 3 ', including the realization of the aforementioned function, being independent of the mains or mains voltage.
As already indicated above, several types of sensors can be implemented in relation to each of the two modules 3 and 3 'to provide the latter with fault signals when a differential fault occurs at the installation level. monitored.
However, in accordance with a preferred practical embodiment, each of the own means 6 and 6 'for delivering a fault signal consists of a ferromagnetic core 7, 7' comprising, on the one hand, a primary winding formed by one of the conductors 2, 2 'of the monitored network or by an excitation winding 10, according to the means 6, 6' considered and, on the other hand, at least one secondary winding 8, 9 delivering a fault signal 3 and 3 respectively associated detection and control module, this in the form of a signal induced at the secondary when the occurrence of a differential fault in the corresponding primary.
As also shown in FIG. 1, the two detection and control modules 3 and 3 'are connected, at their output, via an OR circuit 11 to the single actuator, relay or similar means 5 of the device 1.
Of course, the two parallel and independent chains of measurement, detection, exploitation, processing and control, formed by the means 6, 6 'and the modules 3, 3', comprise constitutive components optimized in terms of time. reaction, known to those skilled in the art.
It emerges from FIGS. 2 and 3 that the zone of overlap Z of the operating frequency domains of the two modules 3 and 3 'is subdivided into two adjacent complementary frequency zones Z' and Z ", in each of which one of the two modules 3 , 3 'respectively has a predominant sensitivity and / or reactivity, the sensitivities and / or reactivities of said modules 3, 3' being adjusted in such a way that the value of the frequency of passage from one preponderance zone to the other is at most equal to the value of the frequency of the monitored network, preferably less than the latter.
Advantageously, the respective curves C and C 'of variation of the current sensitivity of the two modules 3 and 3' as a function of the frequency has a common point of intersection P1, the value of the frequency of this point P1 being preferentially less than the value of the frequency of the network or sector, and at most equal to the latter at the frequency of the network being monitored.
For a grating frequency of 50 Hz for example, the frequency associated with the point PI can be between about 20 Hz and 50 Hz, preferably between 25 and 30 Hz.
Thus, each of the two modules 3 and 3 'will selectively take over to provide protection, and thus trigger, if necessary, the means 5.
As shown in FIG. 1, and in accordance with additional features of the invention, it may be noted that: the first module 3 advantageously comprises, in addition to excitation circuits 12, the processing of the fault signal 4 and the setting decision and control 13 of the actuator, the relay or the like 5, also conversion circuits AC / DC 14 and filtering 15, and / or - the second module 3 'advantageously comprises, in addition to circuits 4' of processing of the fault and protection signal, and decision-making and control circuits 16 of the actuator, the relay or the like 5, also a circuit 17 performing a fire barrier function and a means 18 for storing energy electric.
Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiment described and shown in the accompanying drawings. Modifications are possible, particularly from the point of view of the constitution of the various elements or by substitution of technical equivalents, without departing from the scope of protection of the invention.
