Research on power penetration cable line fault location based on distributed traveling wave location technology.

The power penetration line of high-speed railway adopts all-cable lines, and its failure will seriously affect the safety and reliability of railway transportation. The accurate location of the fault will greatly reduce the range of finding the cable fault point and the workload of cable fault repair, shorten the maintenance time, and improve the reliability of high-speed railway power supply. This paper introduces the current situation of power line fault location, analyzes various traveling wave location principles and the traveling wave transmission and attenuation characteristics of all-cable penetration lines, and analyzes the adaptability of the traditional traveling wave location technology in all-cable penetration line fault location. It is proposed that the distributed traveling wave location method can greatly reduce the transmission distance of fault traveling waves and can effectively reduce the influence of attenuation and distortion in the traveling wave transmission process. For different types of fault traveling waves, different fault transition resistances, and different positions of fault points, the method can achieve the accurate location. The practical application case shows that the technology has high location accuracy and meets the requirements of a precise location. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
