Reliable Fault Location for Electricity Grids with Power Electronic Converters KU Leuven
Electrical Energy Systems and Applications (ELECTA), Waves: Core Research and Engineering (WaveCore)
For a reliable supply with electricity, it is vital to locate faults. However, when renewable energy sources with power electronic converters come into play, state of the art fault location demands costly communication. A novel method developed at the KU Leuven overcomes this drawback. It exploits local measurements only, focusing on the converters’ transient response in the time domain. This project will provide a proof of concept with a ...
