Single end feeder arcing fault location using mutual inductance (2012)
Journal Article
Alamuti, M. M., & Nouri, H. (2012). Single end feeder arcing fault location using mutual inductance. European Transactions on Electrical Power, 22(8), 1136-1145. https://doi.org/10.1002/etep.633

Impedance-based fault location methods to date are able to locate only permanent and linear faults. Current fault location methods assume that arc resistance is constant to locate the fault. However, because of the variable nature of the arc resistan... Read More about Single end feeder arcing fault location using mutual inductance.
