Abstract
A method determines a fault location in a fault on an electric line. Accordingly first reference voltage values are determined by current and voltage sampled values at a first line end and an impedance of the line. Second reference voltage values are determined by current and voltage sampled values at a second line end and the impedance. Fictitious first reference voltage values are calculated using a wave guiding model, describing the wave response of the line, with the first reference voltage values. The fictitious first reference voltage values, in the fault-free case, correspond to the second reference voltage values at the second line end. Fictitious second reference voltage values are calculated with the second reference voltage values. The fault location is determined by the first and second reference voltage values and the first and second fictitious reference voltage values.
