Modeling, Detection, and Localization of High-Impedance Faults In Low-Voltage Distribution Feeders

High-impedance faults (HIFs) on distribution feeders are abnormal electrical conditions that cannot be detected by conventional protection schemes. These faults pose a threat on human lives when neighboring objects become in contact with the lineâ s bare and energized conductors. An accurate elec...
