Abstract
This paper proposes a technique to identify fault location on transmission systems using discrete wavelet transforms (DWTs). Fault conditions are simulated using alternative transients program/electromagnetic transients program (ATP/EMTP) in order to obtain the current signals. Various cases based on Thailand electricity transmission systems are studied to verify the validity of the proposed technique. The comparisons among the maximum coefficients in first scale of all buses that can detect fault are performed to detect the faulty bus. The first peak time of positive sequence current obtained from the faulty bus is used as input data for the traveling wave equation. It is shown that the proposed technique gives satisfactory accuracy and is suitable for all types of fault occurring in different sections of transmission lines. © 2013 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.
