Abstract :
Locating momentary faults in a power line permits inspections and necessary repairs to be made before progressive damage results in a sustained fault and loss of the line. A recently developed device continuously monitors a live line and records transient faults in terms of a reading that is readily converted to the distance of the disturbance from one end of the line
