A New Method of Ground Fault Location in 2 × 25 kV Railway Power Supply Systems

A New Method of Ground Fault Location in 2 × 25 kV Railway Power Supply Systems

Owing to the installation of autotransformers at regular intervals along the line, distance protection relays cannot be used with the aim of locating ground faults in 2 × 25 kV railway power supply systems. The reason is that the ratio between impedance and distance to the fault point is not linear...
