- Abstract
Precise fault location (FL) is definitely important for fast fault clearance and restoration of energy transmission. The single‐terminal FL is mostly met in applications because of its easy implementation, but the accuracies of all‐type impedance FL algorithms are not good because of the effects of fault resistance and variation of an opposite terminal equivalent system impedance. The recently developed and assembled FL algorithm presented in this study, combining the stability of the impedance FL and precision of the travelling waves FL, is an expected good solution. However, the key point to achieve accurate FL is to naturally couple these two algorithms. As is known, the distributed parameters model is also the research base of these two algorithms. Hence, the impedance FL algorithm in line with distributed parameters is proposed in this study. It is achieved on the discovery that the negative sequence current at relay location maintains precisely the same phase to the voltage at fault point. The proposed algorithm is immune to shunt capacitance because of modelling with distributed parameters, and is not disturbed by ground resistance when calculated at zero‐crossing moment of voltage at fault point. Simulations and tests prove its good performance.
