Abstract

Fault location has been studied deeply for transmission lines due to its importance in power systems. Nowadays the problem of fault location on distribution systems is receiving special attention mainly because of the power quality regulations. In this context, this paper analyses the influence of the capacitance of cables and compensation capacitor banks when impedance-based algorithms are used to calculate the location of single-line-to-ground (SLG) faults,
