System for Locating Faults in Multiterminal Transmission Lines

Abstract

In this project, the creation and application of computer-based fault detection methods for transmission lines with multiple terminals are discussed.These methods are part of a fault-finding system that precisely locates the fault site by using voltage and current signal measurements from smart electronic devices installed on transmission-line terminals. The transformer loading, connection type, and electrical characteristics are all data that the algorithms have access to. The power system components used by the fault-location techniques are likewise presented in this project’s phase component models.
