| Abstract |
High voltage distribution lines in the electric railway system placed according track with communication lines and signal equipments, Case of the over head lines is occurrence the many fault because lightning, rainstorm, damage from the sea wind and so on According this fault caused protection device to wrong operation. One line ground fault that occurs most frequently in railway high voltage distribution lines and sort of faults is line short, three line ground, breaking of a wire, and so on For this reason we need precise maintenance for prevent of the faults. The most important is early detection and fast restoration in time of fault for a safety transit. In order to develop an advanced fault location device for 22.9[㎸] distribution power network in electric railway system, this paper deals with new fault locating algorithm using flow technique which enable to determine the location of the fault accurately. To demonstrate its superiorities, the case studies with the algorithm and the fault analysis using PSCAD/EMTDC(Power System Computer Aided Design/Electro Magnetic Transients DC Analysis Program) were carried out with the models of direct-grounded 22.9[㎸] distribution network which is supposed to be the grounding method for electric railway system in Korea. |
