Abstract
A method for fault location in series compensated power transmission lines using two-end unsynchronized voltage and current measurements in stations A and B. The method includes performing a subroutine I for determining whether the fault occurred in a line section LA between the station A and a SC&MOV and the distance dA to the fault from station A. Subroutine II determines whether the fault occurred in a line section LB between the station B and the SC&MOV and the distance dB to the fault from station B. The synchronization angle ejδis determined in subroutine I, and the synchronization angle ejδis determined in subroutine II. Then, the distance to fault dA or dB is determined. Finally, an equivalent impedance of compensating banks at fault stage ZSC1phSUBA and ZSC1phSUBB, and pre-fault stage ZSC1pre is calculated in order to determine whether distance dA or dB is the final result.
