The proposed scheme combines fault section location, correlation analysis, and network correlation matrix analysis. It pre-divides network topology areas through correlation identification, utilizing node connectivity structures derived from node-branch correlation matrices. The method enables rapid identification of control target areas through fault section location. This facilitates system self-healing via flexible load control post-fault. The regional division scheme effectively enhances distribution network self-healing efficiency and improves post-fault load recovery levels.
