Abstract
The technology described herein is generally directed to a method of locating a fault in a multi-terminal electrical power transmission scheme, such as implemented in a power transmission scheme where each of six terminals is connected with one of four junctions via a power transmission section and each junction interconnects a plurality of power transmission sections. Aspects of the described technology can be directed to measuring the voltage and current at each terminal, calculating from the measured voltage and current at each terminal corresponding voltage and current phasors, determining from the calculated voltage and current phasors a synchronization difference between the measured voltage and current at a designated terminal and the measured voltage and current at each other terminal, modifying the calculated voltage and current phasors to compensate for each synchronization difference, and determining from the compensated voltage and current phasors the location of the fault.
