Location Algorithm

This paper focused on studying an algorithm of earth fault location in the medium voltage distribution network. In power system network, most of the earth fault occurs is a single line to ground fault. A medium voltage distribution network with resistance earthing at the main substation and an earth fault attached along the distribution network is modeled in ATP Draw. The generated earth fault is simulated, and the voltage and current signal produced is recorded. The earth fault location algorithm is simulated and tested in MATLAB. The accuracy of the earth fault location algorithm is tested at several locations and fault resistances. A possible correction technique is explained to minimize the error. The results show an improvement fault location distance estimation with minimum error.

The Cost

Ground wire is one of the lighning protection instrument used in medium voltage distribution network with the intention to reduce interference due to lightning strikes. On the feeder Serangan the ground wire put 4 – 5 wicket. To know effective gap of ground wire is put on the feeder Serangan then used effectiveness ground wire parameters and total of disorder by lightning strikes directly or indirectly. From the analysis is obtained the effective gap on scenario 4 by 3 – 4 wicket. Choosing scenario 4 is as effective gap because seen by economic aspect, as longest gap point put of ground wire then the cost needed to use material and the installation of ground wire will be cheaper.  DOI: 10.24843/MITE.1501.05
