  1. 21. Cross-Country Faults in Resonant-Earthed Networks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Gabriel Miguel Gomes Guerreiro; [2020]
    Keywords : Cross- country fault; resonant earthing; compensated network; MV network; distance protection; fault analysis; RTDS EMTDC.; dubbla jordfel; spoljordning; jordfelskompenserade elnät; mellanspänningsnät; distansskydd; reläskydd; RTDS EMTDC.;

    Abstract : Reliability requirements for power systems have been constantly increasing, as customers of electric power desire high power availability. In order to improve continuity of supply in medium voltage (MV) networks, utilities in many countries in Europe, North/South America and Oceania use resonant earthing and allow the operation of the network during a single phasetoearth fault for periods from several seconds up to several hours, since the earthfault current at the fault point in such systems is considerably reduced and is unlikely to damage equipment or create hazardous voltages for people or livestock.
