A Distribution Network Fault Location Method Based on Reverse Wave and Wavelet Analysis

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on the analysis of the transient process of the electric line’s developing ground fault, this paper applies the oppositely-directed travelling wave fault location method to fault location in distribution network. Simultaneously, this paper chooses proper wavelet generating functions to find the modulus maximum of oppositely-directed travelling waves and summarizes the methods and steps of this oppositely-directed travelling wave fault location. Finally, PSCAD/EMTDC is used to simulate the single-phase ground fault to verify the oppositely-directed travelling wave fault location method.
