CROSSOVER FAULT CLASSIFICATION FOR POWER LINES WITH PARALLEL CIRCUITS

摘要

The invention describes a method, system, device, and computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions for classifying faults on an electrical power line (202). In particular, the invention permits the classification of crossover faults using a local measurement technique. The inventive method includes providing a first electrical power transmission line and a second electrical power transmisssion line (102), and monitoring the first electrical power transmission line to identify a crossover fault occuring between the first and the second electrical power transmission lines.
