Earth fault distance estimation using travelling waves provided with triacs‐based reclosing in distribution networks

Abstract This study presents an earth fault distance determination algorithm for distribution networks using active travelling waves. Three triacs are used in parallel with a three‐phase breaker poles to overcome the mechanical inequality of the poles’ reclosing times, so that the three phases are s...
