Abstract

An electrical fault is the deviation of voltages and currents from nominal values. Power system equipment or transmission lines carry normal voltages and currents which results in smooth operation of the system. But when a fault occurs, it causes very high current to flow through the equipment and can damage the equipment. This paper provides the causes, effects and methods to overcome the faults of power system.
