摘要：Numerical relay protection devices (NRP) are a promising area for the development of protection equipment for electric power systems. For its development, research and, in some cases, setting mathematical models are used. At the same time, the converting part of the NRP, which realizes the analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) of the analog input signal to the digital one, with which the microprocessor of the NRP works directly, is often ignored in models. The purpose of this work is to study the characteristics and parameters of the ADC, as well as to evaluate its impact on the operation of the ADC itself and need to take into account those or other characteristics in the simulation. To develop the ADC model, the C programming language was used. The ADC model is takes into account the cutoff frequency of the analog signal, sampling period, and number of samples required. The characteristics and parameters of the ADC are studied, their effect on the operation of the ADC is estimated. The result of this study – the ADC must be modeled as completely as possible, since its operation depends on the correct functioning of the NRP algorithm.
