Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method for controlling a distance protection system, as well as a respective device and system for performing the method. Measurements are received. The measurements comprise current and/or voltage measurements at a first position along a transmission line for an electrical power system. A first impedance is computed from the received measurements. A fault location is determined from the computed first impedance and a first impedance boundary. Responsive to the determined fault location, a second impedance is computed. The fault location is redetermined from the computed second impedance and the first impedance boundary. The distance protection system is controlled based on the determined fault location or the re-determined fault location.
