Key words:
Power system automation,
control, and
protection,
high impedance fault detection,
distribution automation and protection.
Research description:
Current research centers on the use of advanced digital techniques for the identification of events on the electric distribution system. Through incipient fault detection and the characterization of anomalous activity, maintenance needs can be predicted and scheduled, thereby reducing overall costs. Work continues on advanced digital protection techniques including the detection and location of
high impedance faults.
