Electric Fault Location Detector || Electrical Project

various reasons, such as lightning strike, failure of power system components due to

aging of equipment and human errors. These phenomena affect the system reliability

and results in expensive repairs, loss of productivity and power loss to customers.

Since fault is unpredictable, a fast fault location and isolation is required to minimize

the impact of fault in distribution systems. Therefore, many methods have been

developed since the past to locate and detect faults in distribution systems with

distributed generation.

Electric fault location detector system to locate and detect faults in distribution

systems with distributed generation are reviewed. Research works in fault location

area, the working principles, advantages and disadvantages of past works related to

each fault location technique are highlighted in this paper. Hence, from this review,

the opportunities in fault location research area in power distribution system can be

explored further.

Electric fault location detector system helps to rural and urban areas, industrial areas

people which are facing electric fault issue in village.
