    Abstract: Distance protection for electric power systems disclosed herein uses an operating signal and a sequence polarizing signal made up of a supervised sequence current and a supervised sequence voltage. The polarizing signal may be determined based on the fault type and may be weighted toward sequence currents or sequence voltages depending on the power system conditions. For phase-to-ground faults, the sequence currents may include negative-sequence and zero-sequence currents. For phase-to-phase faults, the sequence currents may include negative-sequence currents. The current portion of the sequence polarizing signal may be weighted based on detection of insufficient negative-sequence current magnitude, standing unbalance, current transformer saturation, open pole, three-phase fault, and the like. The distance elements described herein provides improved protection during real-world power system conditions and changes.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a fault in an electric power delivery system. In one embodiment, a system may include a data acquisition subsystem configured to receive a plurality of representations of electrical conditions associated with at least a portion of the electric power delivery system. A traveling wave detector may be configured to detect a traveling wave event based on the plurality of representations of electrical conditions. A traveling wave directional subsystem may be configured to calculate an energy value of the traveling wave event during an accumulation period based on the detection of the traveling wave by the traveling wave disturbance detector. A maximum and a minimum energy value may be determined during the accumulation period. A fault direction may be determined based on the maximum energy value and the minimum energy value. A fault detector subsystem configured to declare a fault based on the determined fault direction.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are presented for detecting high-impedance faults (HIFs) in an electric power delivery system using a plurality of coordinated high-impedance fault detection systems. In certain embodiments, a method for HIFs may include receiving first and second current representations associated with first and second locations of the electric power delivery system respectively. Based on at least one of the first and second current representations, the occurrence of an HIF may be determined. A relative location of the HIF may be determined based on a relative amount of interharmonic content associated with an HIF included in the first and second current representations, and a protective action may be taken based on the determined relative location.

    Abstract: A location of a fault in an electric power delivery system may be detected using traveling waves instigated by the fault. The time of arrival of the traveling wave may be calculated using the peak of the traveling wave. To determine the time of arrival of the peak of the traveling wave, estimates may be made of the time of arrival, and a parabola may be fit to filtered measurements before and after the estimated peak. The maximum of the parabola may be the time of arrival of the traveling wave. Dispersion of the traveling wave may also be corrected using an initial location of the fault and a known rate of dispersion of the electric power delivery system. Time stamps may be corrected using the calculated dispersion of the traveling wave.
