Abstract
The speed and robustness of fault section location directly affect the resilience of the distribution network when the latter is exposed to extreme events. This article is proposing a fast and robust fault section location method for distribution system considering the outage reports from smart meters in low-voltage network and notifications from remote fault indicators (RFIs) in medium-voltage network. To make section location faster, a proposed location model moves underreporting variables and misreporting variables to offline recognition. To make section location more robust, the location model proposes new constraints of expected RFI states to remove the limitation of multiple faults on different paths to all sources. Simulation results on a utility feeder with distributed generations demonstrate that the proposed method has faster location and better robustness, which is helpful to the resilience enhancement of the distribution network.
