    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for fault detection in a mixed configuration power transmission line including a plurality of sections arranged between one end of the transmission line and the other end of the transmission line and including at least one overhead line section and at least one cable section are disclosed. Based on a comparison travelling wave voltage or current time derivatives at the one end and the other end of the power transmission line with selected threshold values, it is determined if there is a fault occurring in at least one cable section of the power transmission line. Embodiments utilize amplification of travelling wave voltages and/or currents which may occur at junctions between a cable section and an adjacent overhead line section in determining if the fault occurs in a cable section of the power transmission line.

    Abstract: There is provided mechanisms for detecting a fault of a transmission line (20) in a power system (10) comprising at least one of an extreme weak system (10a) and an extreme strong system (10b). A method comprises obtaining travelling wave polarities from two terminals (21a, 21b) of the transmission line during occurrence of the fault, the travelling wave polarities being defined by two current polarities and two voltage polarities. The method comprises determining the obtained travelling wave polarities to be detectable and the obtained travelling wave polarities to be non-detectable. The method comprises detecting the fault to be internal based on the detectable travelling wave polarities and the non-detectable travelling wave polarities. There is also provided an arrangement configured to perform such a method.
