| description | High frequency signals generated due to faults contain information which could be utilised to locate the faults.
Based on the principle of reverberation of waves on power network, the high frequency signature of the current
signals are related to known reflection points exist in the network. From these the fault section and the probable
location of the fault can be identified. The probable location is then used within a power system simulator that
models the network. The simulated current waveforms at the probable locations are then cross-correlated
against the signals captured. If the identified location is correct, the high frequency signature in the simulated
waveform will be similar to that observed in the measured waveform and the cross-correlation value will have a
high positive value. If the signatures differ, the cross-correlation value will be small. Simulation studies using
PSCAD/EMTDC and analysis using cross-correlation indicate that locating faults on a radial distribution
feeder is a possibility using a single ended travelling wave measurement method. |
