Abstract: A fault is located in a power distribution system having a line frequency. The power distribution system includes a plurality of phases, at least one feeder, and each feeder includes at least one segment. The fault is located by detecting a faulted phase from the plurality of phases of the power distribution system. A measurement signal having a measurement frequency is injected into the detected faulted phase, the measurement frequency being a different frequency than the line frequency. The fault location is determined for a selected segment based on at least one measured residual current corresponding to the injected signal and a predetermined relative impedance of the power distribution system.

Abstract: A fault is located in a transmission line with a sending end, a receiving end, and a plurality of tapped nodes, and multiple tapped loads connected to the transmission line at tap nodes. The sending end and the receiving end each include a measuring device. The fault location is determined by obtaining measured circuit parameters including measured pre-fault and faulted current and voltage values at the sending end and at the receiving end of the transmission line. An equivalent tap node location is calculated using measured pre-fault and faulted current and voltage values at the sending end and at the receiving end of the transmission line. The equivalent tap node divides the transmission line into a sending side and a receiving side. The phase angle difference due to unsynchronized measurement using the measured pre-fault current and the measured pre-fault voltage values may be calculated. The equivalent load impedance of the tapped loads is calculated.
