  • Abstract
    This paper introduces a new fault location algorithm for interconnected power networks established upon the differences of arrival times of traveling waves arriving at sparsely located synchronized recorders on any bus in the network. The performance validation of the developed method is done through an implementation on the IEEE 14-bus system by using ATP/EMTP program in collaboration with MATLAB Wavelet Toolbox.
