Modelling of Wave Processes on Power Transmission Lines to Improve the Accuracy of Fault Location1

  • Published:
Power Technology and Engineering Aims and scope

The principles of adapting wave techniques for fault location in electrical transmission lines with dynamically changing parameters are studied by simulation modelling. Pseudo-ranging and difference-ranging algorithms for fault location by wave techniques are developed. Results are presented from a study of the prospects for raising the accuracy of the wave method for fault location in transmission lines using these algorithms.
