Abstract

A protective relaying system including a protected AC transmission line and detection means for detecting a change in propagation mode of a traveling wave propagating along the transmission line. The transmission line has a pair of line ends and a surge propagation time .tau., and the detection means is effective for comparing a value of the traveling wave as it passes one of the line ends at a time t-.tau. and a value of the traveling wave as it passes the other of the line ends at a time t after the surge propagation time has elapsed for detecting a change in wave value resulting from a change in wave propagation mode.
