In allusion to the low reliability and sensitivity of existing single-phase earth fault location method, this article proposed a new location method based on WAMS in mine non-effectively grounded network. It analyzed the logical relationship of zero-sequence current of each branch when single-phase earth fault occurred and deduced zero-sequence current formulae of each branch. The detailed description is given to calculating differential variable of zero-sequence current and explicating principle and realization of fault section location. The coal mine power supply model based on WAMS is introduced and the scheme was verified by simulation via MATLAB and calculation via Fast Fourier Transform. The results indicate that it avoids influences by load capacity and the voltage initial phase angle, then effectively enhances fault location reliability and sensitivity.

The paper analyzes the utilization of cable screen currents for earth fault identification and location. Attention is paid on cable and mixed feeders—cable and overhead lines. The principle of operation is based on utilization of 3 criterion values: Ratio of cable screen earthing current and zero sequence cable core current—RF110/15, phase shift between cable screen earthing current and zero sequence cable core current—α and cable screen admittance defined as a ratio of cable screen earthing current and zero sequence voltage—Y0cs. Earth fault location is possible thanks to discovered relation between RF110/15 and α, whereas Y0cs allows for reliable detection of earth faults. Detection and identification are very important because it allows to increase the reliability of supply—reduce downtime and number of consumers affected by the fault. The article presents a phase to ground fault current flow for different power system configurations. At the end solution, which improves location capabilities is proposed. The solution is analyzed in PSCAD software and verified by network experiment.
