Analysis of ground fault current distribution along nonuniform multi-section lines
2008
In case of a substation supplied by a combined overhead-cable line, most of the ground fault current flows through the cable sheaths and discharges into the soil surrounding the point of discontinuity, where cables are connected to the overhead line. In the paper a new method is presented for computing the ground fault current distribution in case of feeding line consisting of two or more different sections, i.e. part overhead and part underground cable. Besides the calculation of the earth current at the fault location, the leakage current at the transit/transition stations as well as at the overhead line towers can be evaluated, in order to ensure proper safety conditions. Based on the tw…
Ground Fault Current Distribution in Substations Supplied by Nonuniform Multi-Section Lines
2007
he paper presents a general method for computing the distribution of substation ground fault current. The feeding line can be entirely homogeneous along its whole length or consisting of two or more different sections, i.e. part overhead and part underground cable. Based on the two-port theory, the proposed method allows to take into account all the relevant conductively and inductively coupled parameters which take part to the distribution of the fault current and can be easily implemented in a computer program. Numerical examples demonstrate the high efficiency of the proposed method.
