Abstract
Examples of fault location in a power transmission line connecting a first and a second terminal is described. In an example, arrival times of a first peak, a second peak, and a third peak of a travelling wave detected from measurements carried out at the first and second terminals is detected. A rise time associated with the first peak of the travelling wave is calculated. One of a first half and a second half of the power transmission line is identified, as having a fault, based on a comparison of the rise time. One of a first segment, a second segment, a third segment, and a fourth segment of the power transmission line is identified as having the fault. Length of the power transmission line is estimated. The fault location is estimated based on identification of one of the first, second, third, and fourth segments as having the fault.
