Fault Types
zThere are two main types of faults
Symmetric/balanced faults: system remains balanced; these
faults are relatively rare, but are the easiest to analyze so
well
ll consider

first.
Unsymmetric/unbalanced faults: system is no longer
balanced; very common, but more difficult to analyze
Fault causes
Line short circuit by small animals,
animals and vegetations due to e.g.
e g sag by
overloading: North America Mega blackout
Lightening event sequence
1.
Lighting hits line, setting up an ionized path to ground
z
30 million lightning strikes per year in US!
z
a single typical stroke might have 25,000
25 000 amps,
amps with a rise time
of 10 s, dissipated in 200 s.
z
multiple strokes can occur in a single flash, causing the lightning
to appear to flicker, with the total event lasting up to a second.
2.
3.
Within one to two cycles (16 ms) relays at both ends of line detect
high currents, signaling circuit breakers to open the line
z
nearby locations see decreased voltages

Transients in RL circuit

Symmetric Components
zMethod of symmetric components by C.
C F.
F Fortescue in 1918: an
unbalanced of n related phasor can be resolved into n systems of
balanced phasors called symmetric components of the original
phasors.
phasors
zThe key idea of symmetrical component analysis is to decompose
the system into three balanced (therefore per phase analysis can
still used as for symmetric analysis)sequence networks for
analysis . The networks are then coupled only at the point of the
unbalance (i.e., the fault)
zThe three sequence networks are known as the
positive sequence (this is the one weve been using)
negative sequence
zero sequence
