Fault Location in Two Phase Traction System
Abstract: Owing to the installation of autotransformers at regular intervals along the line, distance protection relays cannot be used with the aim of locating ground faults in 2×25 kV railway power supply systems. The reason is that the ratio between impedance and distance to the fault point is not linear in these electrification systems, unlike in 1×25 kV power systems. Therefore, the location of ground faults represents a complicated task in …
