Abstract

A method and system for determining a location of a phase-to-earth fault in a three-phase electric line of an electric network, the system being configured to monitor current and voltage quantities of the three-phase electric line at a measuring point and calculate a distance (d) between the measuring point and a point of fault (F) using an equation relating the current and voltage quantities to the distance, wherein the system is further configured to calculate load-compensated zero and negative sequence currents, calculate a load-compensated phase voltage of the faulted phase by using the compensated zero sequence current; and use the compensated negative sequence current and the compensated phase voltage for calculating the distance (d) between the measuring point and a point of fault (F).
