  • Abstract
    The problem of locating sustained faults on transmission lines depends on a number of factors such as speed, accuracy, cost, and the final results. A pulse-type, electronic fault analyzer is used in the Appalachian system because of the mountainous topography. Method of use and results of tests and experiences are detailed.
