Locating high-resistance grounding faults poses a tough and challenging problem for the safety of DC railway systems. High-resistance grounding fault current isn't sufficient to trigger switches, which may expand the accident or turn into potential hazards. In order to overcome the limits of the existing methods (such as signal injecting method, resistance method and so), developing a novel fault...
In the last two decades there has been a continuous increase in the amount of Distributed Generation (DG) connected to the power network. This has resulted in a number of technical challenges for network protection including: sympathetic tripping of DG interface protection; blinding of feeder over-current (OC) protection; and deterioration of feeder OC protection grading. While the available literature...
This paper presents a new impedance based fault location method in the case of phase to phase and three phase faults. This method utilized the measured impedance by distance relay and super imposed current factor, which is the ratio of post-fault current to super imposed current, to discriminate the fault position on the line. This method is robust against the fault resistance. The presented method...
The present transmission systems are rapidly changing principally due to an increasing demand for better utilisation of existing lines resulting in lower transient stability limits, and also due to an increase in the complexity of the networks with small-scale distributed generation being connected into the existing networks. The current protection/fault location techniques are not conducive to such...
