Abstract
Any reliable
transmission line protection scheme is expected to quickly detect faults and
isolate the faulted section immediately. Ability to locate the fault, further
helps fast restoration of service in case of permanent faults or identifying
the weak spots in the system. This paper explores different fault detection and
location algorithms and their performance is analyzed using different types of
faults, fault resistance and inception angles. Influence of series compensation
on fault location is also studied. Two fault detection techniques i.e.
moving-sum approach and cumulative-sum approach are evaluated. Fault location
is done by using travelling wave theory, which is utilized in capturing the
travel time of the transients along the monitored lines between the fault point
and relay. Wavelet transform is used for analyzing power system fault
transients in order to capture the travel time. Performance of location
algorithms for both single ended and two ended measurements is analyzed.
Results of the performance studies on the algorithms for detection and the
location with compensated and uncompensated lines are presented. The
performance of the algorithm is tested in MATLAB simulation environment.
