Surge locating system of power transmission line and method thereof
First Claim
1. A surge locating system of a power transmission line for locating a point where a surge occurs by receiving in at least two stations independently the surge which occurs on a power transmission line, said surge locating system of a power transmission line comprising:
- surge detecting means in each station for detecting a surge which occurs on the power transmission line, said surge detecting means being connected to a neutral point of a secondary side of a wire wound grounding potential transformer (GPT) connected to said power transmission line;
said surge detecting means including surge judging means which determines a surge arrival time when a surge is detected having a voltage higher than a predetermined level;
time difference calculating means in communication with said surge judging means in said at least two stations for calculating a time difference between said surge arrival times determined by said surge judging means in respective stations; and
locating means for locating a point where the surge occurs based on said time difference.

Abstract
A surge locating system and a method thereof which can accomplish the surge locating with high accuracy and with relatively simple structure. When the surge occurs, the voltage is generated on the neutral point of Y-connected three-phase alternating current transmission line because of losing a voltage balance on the three-phase alternating current transmission line. The surge locating can be accomplished by detecting the voltage generated in the neutral point. The neutral point is grounded, and the surge locating system according to the present invention is installed between the neutral point and the grounding point. The voltage generated in the neutral point is introduced into the surge locating system and the detecting time thereof is stored. This detecting time is stored in the respective stations, and the surge point can be located based on the detecting time difference between the stations.
