Abstract
A secure distance protection for electric power delivery systems under transient conditions is disclosed herein. Upon detection of a transient condition, additional security is added to a distance protection element before a protective action is taken. The transient condition may be detected when an angle of advancement of an operating signal is outside of a predetermined threshold. An unsecure condition may also be detected before applying additional security. The unsecure condition may be detected based on an estimation of a fault within a close-in zone and a voltage magnitude falling below a threshold.
