Abstract
This invention relates generally to underground electric power distribution systems. In particular, it relates to underground loop feed circuits which include reclosers and transformers and a plurality of high frequency actuated normally closed isolator switches for automatically locating and sectionalizing portions of the loop circuit in which faults originate. The actuator switches between which a fault occurs are armed in response to a fault current and only those switches which are armed are opened thereby isolating the faulted section of cable. The remaining actuator switches remain closed.
