Abstract :
The use of nonpower frequency components for power system relaying has been known for more than fifty years, however, the use of high frequency components on relaying has not been seriously looked at. This paper seeks to remedy this situation. This paper investigates a novel technique for fault detection and location on overhead distribution networks based upon detecting fault induced high frequency components introduced on the line
