Distributed relay protection for distribution network based on hybrid
When the line fault is permanent, the line should have a large current flow; when the line fault is instantaneous, the line only has leakage current flow and the current value is small.
Detecting and Locating Broken Conductor Faults on High-Voltage
For low-resistance faults, a relay can detect faults and trip the line breakers. However, because the relay cannot determine whether the fault is permanent, it may attempt to reclose, causing further stress to
