INTRODUCTION
New Techniques for the protection of transmission lines .
Relays are installed at each bus bar in a transmission network.
Relay contains a fault detection system together with a GPS communication system.
GPS determine the location of the fault. GPS Technique

A Fault is an abnormal flow of currents
Possible fault conditions :
Lightening strikes near lineSnow storms/icing on lines causes to sag High winds Bird or animal contactConductor clash

What is travelling wave fault location ? Faults on the power transmission
systems causes transients that propagate along transmission lines as waves .
These waves have a propagation velocity and characteristic impedance ,travel from fault location towards line ends.
The location of faults is accomplished by precisely time-tagging wave fronts as they cross a known point typically in substations at line ends .
Fault location can be obtained by multiplying the wave velocity by the time difference in line ends .

TRAVELLING WAVE FAULT LOCATION THEORYTravelling wave fault locators make use of
transient signals generated by the fault.Unlike other fault location systems ,the
travelling wave fault locator is unaffected by load conditions
Precisely synchronized clocks are the key element in the implementation of this fault location techniques
The required level of clock accuracy has only recently been available at reasonable cost with the introduction of GPS

BENEFITS OF TRAVELLING WAVE LOCATION THEORYEarly fault locators used RADAR RADAR equipment is typically mobile are
located at substations and requires manual operation
Travelling wave fault locators are becoming popular where higher accuracy is important
GPS-based sub microsecond timing system has proven reliable in several utility travelling wave projects

FAULT LOCATION USING GPSGlobal positioning system(GPS) is a satellite-based navigation system made up of a network of 24 satellites placed into orbit.
Originally intended for military applications
Allows precise determination of location, velocity , direction and time

HOW GPS WORKS ?GPS satellite circle the earth twice a day.Transmit signal information to Earth.Receiver take this information and calculate
the user’s exact location.Accurate 3D location requires 4 satellitesGPS satellite transmits two low power radio
signals

Operation of the fault location system (FLS) using GPSA fault locator remote is
coupled to each end of the line via CPT
FL is synchronized to the common timing standard of UTC from GPS
Fault resulting produces travelling waves (transients)
The FL remote time tag the transient arrival times
![Page 14: Protection of Power Transmission Lines](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55cf9876550346d03397cc92/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
By knowing the line length(L) and time of arrival difference (tb-ta) distance X can be calculated from the FL equation
X=[L-C(tb-ta)]/2
ta & tb are end A and end B arrival time
C=velocity of light

extremely accurate.Economical Fast response Reliability and availability

CONCLUSIONUses a dedicated fault detector to extract
transient signal and GPS system to time tag the signals .
Travelling time of the transient signal from the point of the fault to the adjacent substation is used to determine the fault location
Proposed technique is able to offer a high accuracy in fault location
Unlike traditional protection schemes this technique offers a new concept in network protection
