Fault location using line impedance with the presence of ARC resistance

Many methods were developed to identify the estimated location of faults in distribution systems. They are either dealing with the travelling waves generated by faults at high frequencies or using the fundamental frequency components. Among them "Fault Impedance Methods" are the most popul...
