Description
Summary:The paper presented here is aimed at proposing a generalised strategy for easily implementing a fault locator in real power distribution systems. The strategy is based on the definition of a fault location method and its successive application along section lines from a power substation to the section where the fault has been determined. According to the results, the proposed strategy seems to be applicable to real power systems as an alternative for reducing fault location time and thus keeping good continuity indexes.
