Intelligent impedance based fault-location for zonal power systems (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Rose, C. J., Thomas, D. W., Sumner, M., Christopher, E., & Lopez Arevalo, S. (2014). Intelligent impedance based fault-location for zonal power systems.

A laboratory based demonstrator has been constructed to study the Active Impedance Estimation (AIE) technique as a means of locating faults on a power system. The demonstrator has been used to verify results from simulation experimentally. The AIE sy... Read More about Intelligent impedance based fault-location for zonal power systems.
