Bad data identification method considering the on-load tap changer model

With the connection and integration of renewable energy, the on-load tap-changer (OLTC) has become an important device for regulating voltage in distribution networks. However, due to non-smooth and non-linear characteristics of OLTC, traditional bad data identification and state estimation methods for transmission network are limited when applied to the distribution network. Therefore, the nonlinearity and droop control constraints of the OLTC model are considered in this paper. At the same time, the quadratic penalty function is introduced to realize the fast normalization of the tap position. It proposes a two-stage bad data identification method based on mixed-integer linear programming. In the first stage, suspicious measurements are identified using projection statistics and maximum normalized residual methods for preprocessing the measurement data. In the second stage, a linearization approach utilizing hyhrid data-physical driven is applied to handle nonlinear constraints, leading to the development of a bad data identification model based on mixed-integer linear programming. Finally, the proposed methodology is validated using a modified IEEE-33 node test feeder example, demonstrating the accuracy and efficiency of bad data identification.
