Fault location based on load flow-wave let transform in the distribution networks

One of the important aspects of distribution network is the outage management (OM). The fault location is one of the important stages in OM for reduction of interruption in the distribution network. Because of increasing the interruption cost and requirement to the suitable reliability in distribution network, determine the location of fault rapidly and is new challenge for distribution operator. this paper propose new method for the fault location. It is done based on load flow-wave let transform method. The case study illustrates the effectiveness of the presented method.
