Abstract
The general aim of this paper is to develop an accurate fault-location scheme that can solve the problems affecting the accuracy of the existing conventional fault locators achieving easier maintenance and restoration time reduction as well as economical aims. This consequently helps to fit the new deregulation policies and competitive marketing. This investigation successfully applies zero-sequence current (3I 0) from the two terminals for earth high impedance fault (HIF) location, or negative-sequence currents from the two terminals of one faulted phase for line-to-line fault location. The HIF location is determined within only a maximum time of one cycle. The proposed scheme is insensitive to variations of different parameters, such as fault type, HIF behavior, wide-range transmission-line parameters variation, and fault inception angle. Staged fault testing results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has feasible performance.Keywords
