Abstract
An apparatus for determining a fault location distance or distance protection in a multi-phase power transmission medium, configured to; determine a set of line fault parameters based on a measurement of voltage and current at a point of said power transmission medium and a fault type, the line fault parameters determined at a plurality of sample times determine a derivative with respect to time of a line fault parameters representative of an inductive part of measured faulty phase current; determine a set of phasors using a Fourier transformation of the derivative and of the remaining line fault parameters at the plurality of sample times and use said set of phasors to determine a fault location distance or distance projection distance along the power transmission medium; wherein, the determination of the fault location distance or the distance protection distance is based on the line equation;
