A high impedance fault isolation system for a radially connected three phase electric power line that utilizes three phase current measurements to determine the presence of a fault without the need for any voltage measurements or a battery powered controller. This eliminates the need for costly phase voltage measuring devices conventionally required to detect high impedance faults, which makes it economical to install fault isolation system at a greater number of locations throughout the power system. The system detects faults using current measurements by computing the negative and zero sequence current components and comparing the amplitudes of the negative and zero sequence components. A fault is detected when the ratio of the amplitudes of the negative and zero sequence components falls within a predefined fault detection range, such as the range from 0.5 to 1.5. |
