A New Method for Fault Location in Distribution Networks Based on Voltage Sag Measurements
(2020-01-01)
This paper presents an innovative method for fault location in distribution networks based on classical circuit analyses. Two synchronized and few nonsynchronized pre- and during-fault voltages are required at few buses ...
Distribution systems fault analysis considering fault resistance estimation
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2011)
Fault resistance is a critical component of electric power systems operation due to its stochastic nature. If not considered, this parameter may interfere in fault analysis studies. This paper presents an iterative fault ...
Extended Fault-Location Formulation for Power Distribution Systems
(IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 2009)
In this paper, an extended impedance-based fault-location formulation for generalized distribution systems is presented. The majority of distribution feeders are characterized by having several laterals, nonsymmetrical ...
Hybrid fault diagnosis scheme implementation for power distribution systems automation
(IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 2008)
Power distribution automation and control are import-ant tools in the current restructured electricity markets. Unfortunately, due to its stochastic nature, distribution systems faults are hardly avoidable. This paper ...
Fault Current Limiter Using YBCO Coated Conductor-The Limiting Factor and Its Recovery Time
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2009-06-01)
A fault current limiter (FCL) based on an arrangement of parallel connected high temperature superconducting tapes constituting a limiter element was designed and tested in 220 V line for a fault current peak between 1 kA ...
Fault current limiter using transformer and modular device of YBCO coated conductor
(2013-04-08)
In this work, we report on the evaluation of a superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL). It is consisted of a modular superconducting device combined with a short-circuited transformer with a primary copper winding ...
Modeling and Experiment of the Current Limiting Performance of a Resistive Superconducting Fault Current Limiter in the Experimental System
(2015-09-08)
In this paper, a 220-V resistive superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) prototype is built and tested under different prospective fault currents, which vary from 0.8 to 7.4 kA. A 2D superconductor model is integrated ...
Recovery Tests of an Hybrid Current Limiter Composed of a SFCL in Parallel to an Air-Core Power Reactor
(Springer, 2015-02-01)
The resistive-type superconducting fault current limiters (RSFCL) prototypes using YBCO-coated conductors have shown current limitation for medium voltage class applications for acting time up to 80 ms. By connecting an ...
Test of a Modular Fault Current Limiter for 220 V Line Using YBCO Coated Conductor Tapes With Shunt Protection
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2011-06-01)
A modular superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) consisting of 16 elements was constructed and tested in a 220 V line for a fault current between 1 kA to 7.4 kA. The elements are made up of second generation (2G) ...
Test results of a superconducting fault current limiter using YBCO coated conductor
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2007-06-01)
A single-phase superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) using a 0.9 m length of YBCO coated conductor (CC) tape was tested in 220 V-60 Hz line for fault current up to 1 kA, operating in 77 K. In this work are presented ...
