Synopsis "fault location on power networks"

electric power systems are growing in size and complexity and will be always exposed to failures of their components. in the case of a failure, the faulty element should be disconnected from the rest of the system in order to minimize the damage of the faulty element and to remove the emergency situation for the entire system. this action should be taken quickly and accurately and is accomplished by a set of automatic protective relaying devices. at the same time, when a fault occurs on a line (distribution or transmission), it is very important for the utility to identify the fault location as quickly as possible for improving the service reliability. if a fault location cannot be identified quickly and this makes prolonged line outage during a period of peak load, severe economic losses may occur and the reliability of service may be questioned. these factors have raised awareness of the importance of research into fault location, which has attracted widespread attention among researchers in power system technology in recent years. fault location on power lines describes in depth the location and analysis of faults in overhead transmission power lines, from basic algorithms to the use of artificial intelligence. the book bridges both design and application perspectives for design and r&d engineers, as well as postgraduate students.
