The proposed technique depends on a sensitive fault detection parameter （denoted DET） calculated from the wavelet multi-resolution decomposition of the three phase currents only. This parameter is fast and sensitive to any small changes in the current signal since it uses the square of the first and second details of the decomposed signals. The simulation results of this study clearly show that the proposed technique can be successfully used to detect and classify not only low-current faults that could not be detected by conventional overcurrent relays but also normal transients like load switching and inrush currents.展开更多

The proposed algorithm uses the transient residual currents, which are very sensitive for earth faults detection. The transient values of residual currents are calculated for each feeder in the network and used as an earth fault indicator. The flow of residual currents is investigated. It is found that the residual current for the faulted feeder is equal to the summation of all residual currents for all other healthy feedersl Based on this investigation, a differential technique is proposed. A percentage restrain performance is proposed to ensure the selectivity and security of the algorithm. The transient algorithm is very sensitive for earth fault incidence. To apply the proposed algorithm, the residual currents can be measured easily by one sensor for each feeder with no need to voltage measurement. The proposed algorithm is less dependent on the fault resistance and the faulted feeder parameters. The network is simulated by ATP/EMTP program.
