Earth fault location in medium voltage power system network

Abstract

Electric in power system network is always exposed to failures that can be caused by naturel phenomena or human errors. This paper focus on fault localization method on medium voltage (MV) power system network. Faults that accurred in a power system network may damage the system which results in a components of the system failure. A network of MV power system network was contructed using ETP/EMTP software to simulate and analyze an earth fault transient signal for earth fault location purpose.
