Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of inverter relay detection, and relates to a relay fault detection method for a grid-connected inverter.
Background
In the field of grid-connected power generation systems, the primary premise is to accurately judge the quality of a relay at a power grid end. Because the relay needs to transmit larger current, especially for the grid-connected inverter with longer service time, metal contacts in the relay are easily adhered and cannot be disconnected in time, and further a series of uncontrollable factors can be brought. It is necessary to recognize whether each relay is stuck or can be closed. The existing relay fault detection method has more complicated steps, and the method and the steps for optimizing the relay fault detection logic are one of the problems to be solved in the field of inverters.
Disclosure of Invention

In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the technical scheme that:
a Relay fault detection method of a Grid-connected inverter is characterized in that resistors are connected between an inverter Relay (Relay 1, Relay 2) and a Grid-side inverter (Relay 3, Relay 4) in parallel, both sides of the resistors are sampled to obtain Relay sampling signals, and Grid sampling signals are sampled between the photovoltaic input line L and the photovoltaic input line N to obtain Grid sampling signals;
the relay fault detection method comprises the following steps:
driving and disconnecting all relays, judging whether Relay sampling signals are smaller than a first threshold value, if so, judging that the power grid side Relay3 has an adhesion fault or the power grid side Relay3 and the Relay4 have adhesion faults at the same time; if the result is negative, entering the next step;
driving and closing the power Grid side Relay3, judging whether the absolute value of the difference value between the Relay sampling signal and the Grid sampling signal is greater than a second threshold value, and if so, judging that the power Grid side Relay4 has an adhesion fault; if the result is negative, entering the next step;
the inverter side outputs open-loop voltage to drive and disconnect the grid side Relay3, whether a Relay sampling signal is smaller than a third threshold value or not is judged, if yes, it is judged that the inverter side Relay1 has an adhesion fault or the inverter side Relay1 and the Relay2 have adhesion faults at the same time; if the result is negative, entering the next step;
the inversion side outputs open-loop voltage, the inversion side relays Relay1 and Relay2 are driven to be closed, whether Relay sampling signals are larger than a fourth threshold value or not is judged, and if the result is yes, the next step is carried out; if the result is negative, determining that the inverter Relay Relay1 and/or Relay2 cannot be closed;
closing the inverter side open-loop voltage, driving to disconnect the inverter side relays Relay1 and Relay2 and close the Grid side relays Relay3 and Relay4, judging whether the absolute value of the difference value between the Relay sampling signal and the Grid sampling signal is smaller than a fifth threshold value, and if so, finishing self-checking; and if the result is negative, determining that the power grid side Relay Relay3 and/or Relay4 cannot be closed.
Preferably, the control system of the Grid-connected inverter generates a driving signal Inv _ Relay for controlling opening and closing of the inverter-side relays Relay1 and Relay2, a driving signal Grid _ Relay _ L for controlling opening and closing of the Grid-side Relay3, and a driving signal Grid _ Relay _ N for controlling opening and closing of the Grid-side Relay 4. The opening and closing of the four relays are controlled by the three driving signals, so that the detection steps are greatly simplified.

The first to fifth thresholds (Delta 1 to Delta 5) mentioned herein are values set based on values obtained by tests during operation of the grid-connected inverter system and taking a certain margin into consideration. The thresholds corresponding to different grid-connected inverters are different from each other.
The embodiment provides a relay fault detection method for a photovoltaic grid-connected inverter, and fig. 1 shows a hardware system schematic diagram of a relay circuit applied to the fault detection method. Referring to fig. 1, the relay is disposed between the inverter INV and the Grid. The Relay specifically comprises four relays including an inversion side Relay and a power grid side Relay, wherein the inversion side Relay comprises an inversion side Relay Relay1 and an inversion side Relay2, and the power grid side Relay comprises a power grid side Relay3 and a power grid side Relay 4. The inverter is electrically connected to a photovoltaic input line L of a power grid through an inverter side Relay1 and a grid side Relay3 in sequence, and the inverter is electrically connected to a photovoltaic input line N of the power grid through an inverter side Relay2 and a grid side Relay4 in sequence.

The two sampling signal signals are respectively a Relay sampling signal and a Grid sampling signal. The delay sampling signal is specifically a voltage value at two sides of the resistor R; the Grid sampling signal is specifically a voltage value between the photovoltaic input line L and the photovoltaic input line N.
