            Abstract : 
This paper presents a concept of combination modulus (CM) to solve the problem that the transient-based protection techniques may fail to detect faults under certain conditions. The CM features are analyzed and discussed in detail. A novel transmission line unit protection scheme is proposed by comparing transient current CM polarity. The mathematical morphology (MM) technique is used to extract the polarity features from fault-generated current wave signals propagating along transmission lines during a post-fault period. The simulation results of the ATP/EMTP software show that the reliability of the protection scheme proposed has been considerably improved.
