Fault Level Studies in a Low Voltage Distribution Network in the Presence of Small Scale Distributed Generations– Case Study for Mauritius

Fault Behavior of Power Distribution Networks with Distributed Generation and Uncertainties

“…The impact of errors and uncertainties in fault location has been studied in [2], which obtained the probability functions of variables involved in power system faults from real measurements acquired by power quality monitors in distribution substations; in [3], which evaluated application requirements and modeling limitations and uncertainties to define appropriate fault location methods; in [4], which used pre-fault voltages measured by smart meters along the feeders with and without measurement noise in a L1-norm minimization method to test the system performance under distinct fault conditions; in [5], which presented an impedance-based method for fault location considering different sources of errors to evaluate accuracy and robustness; and in [6], which evaluated the sources of errors affecting the accuracy of fault location. In turn, [7]- [9] evaluate the short-circuit current contribution of distributed energy resources and their impact on power system protection schemes, among others.…”
