Disturbance detection in the MV and the LV distribution networks using time-domain method by Ukil, Abhisek

“…With the growing need for disturbance-free power distribution, there has been significant focus under the ‘Smart Grid’ initiative on fault and disturbance analysis. Compared to the high voltage (HV) transmission systems where high-end relays can be used, medium- and low-voltage (MV, LV) distribution systems employ low-end relays for cost reason. …”
