One—End Data Method for Fault Position Estimate of Two—Parallel Transmission Lines

An accurate numerical algorithm for three-line fault involving different phases from each of two-parallel lines is presented.It is based on one-terminal voltage and currenl data.The loop and nodel equations comparing faulted phase to non-faulted phase of two-parallel lines are introduced in the fault location estimation modal,in which the faulted impedance of remote end is not involved.The effect of load flow and fault resistance on the ac-curacy of fault location are effectively eliminated,therefore an accurate algorithom of locating fault is derived.The algorithm is demonstrated by digital computer simulations and the results show that crrors in locating fault are less than1%.
