Abstract

By using the advantages of C-type of traveling wave fault location method in distance measuring and the pattern recognition function of support vector machines (SVM),a new fault location method is presented.The first step of the method is determining the fault distance by C-type of traveling wave location method; the second one is locating the fault section by SVM. It also adopts the wavelet to reduce the noise of fault signal,and the accuracy can be more precise when the parameters of SVM are optimized.The simulation results of ATP and MATLAB show that the method can determine the single phase grounding fault point in 10kv distribution networks with branches accurately.
