Aj. Mazon et al., A new approach to fault location in two-terminal transmission lines using artificial neural networks, ELEC POW SY, 56(3), 2000, pp. 261-266
This paper presents a new approach to fault location in two-terminal overhe
ad transmission lines, using artificial neural networks (ANN's). The method
presented enables the distance to be determined at which the fault occurs
in a two-terminal transmission line using the fundamental components of 50/
60 Hz of the fault and pre-fault voltage and current magnitudes, measured i
n each phase of the reference end. The main characteristic of the method is
the consideration during the training period of both correctly measured ma
gnitudes and magnitudes affected by errors. Using properly validated fault
simulation software has checked the accuracy of the method with both correc
t initial data and initial data containing errors. (C) 2000 Elsevier Scienc
