| Summary: | Abstract An accurate inter‐circuit fault location algorithm for double‐circuit transmission lines compensated by a generalized unified power flow controller based on phasor analysis is presented. The proposed algorithm utilizes synchronous currents and voltages of the buses on both sides of the line to accurately calculate the fault location. Using the equations of sequence component circuits, the algorithm calculates voltage and current of the fault point on both circuits. Then, using boundary conditions equations for 98 types of inter‐circuit fault on the double‐circuit transmission lines, the accurate location of the fault is obtained. The number of boundary conditions equations varies depending on the type of faulty phases of the two circuits and the number of unknowns in the current and voltage equations of the fault point. The calculation of these boundary equations are also described. The results presented in the simulation section verify the validity and accurate performance of the proposed algorithm under different fault conditions. |
