<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide systems, methods, and apparatus for locating faults on an electrical distribution network. <P>SOLUTION: A method for locating faults on an electrical distribution network can include monitoring, by one or more smart meters, a plurality of voltage values associated with the electrical distribution network. When one or more of the plurality of monitored voltage values are detected to be less than or equal to a predetermined voltage for a specified time, the method can also include: storing at least a portion of the monitored line voltage values; indicating a detected fault by transmitting one or more messages from the one or more smart meters or line sensors to a central station receiver, and determining a fault location on the basis at least in part of the one or more messages and a topological and electrical model of the electrical distribution network. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
