Abstract
A method and a system for diagnosing a fault of a three-phase three-level rectifier are relate to the technical field of fault diagnosis of power electronic equipment, and provided to implement identification and location of an open-circuit fault of a power switching device thereof. A deviation between an expected value and an actual value of a phase-to-phase voltage is adopted as a diagnosis variable. The diagnosis variable is calculated by adopting a screening technique, thereby reducing calculation error to ensure accuracy of diagnosis. Only existing voltage current signals in a control system of the rectifier are required to calculate the diagnosis variable, so no additional hardware is required and low-cost fault diagnosis can be implemented. Different voltage thresholds are adopted for different fault characteristic sections, and the voltage thresholds are updated in real time according to a direct current side voltage, which improves diagnosis speed while ensuring higher robustness.
