ABSTRACT
In this paper, an accurate method to discriminate double line and double line to ground faults
in a three terminal transmission circuit based on wavelet transforms is presented. The proposed
algorithm uses the fault indices of three phase currents of all terminals. Fault indices are obtained by
1st level decomposition of current signals using Bior 1.5 mother wavelet considering the variations
in fault resistance, fault inception angle and distance along the transmission circuit. The entire test
results clearly show that the variation in the value of fault index of the healthy phase with the
presence of ground and constant value in the case of non- presence of ground which discriminates
double line fault from the double line to ground faults in the path along one terminal towards the
other terminal with variations in fault inception angle and fault resistance. The algorithm is proved to
be effective and efficient in detection and discrimination of faults.
Keywords: Double Line Fault, Fault Inception Angle, Fault Indices, Multi Terminal Lines, Wavelet

1. INTRODUCTION
Three terminal lines usually provide right, smart, technical and environmental advantage over
two-terminal lines. Three terminal transmission line protection is complicated as compared with two-
terminal transmission lines since three terminal lines experience additional problems due to the in
feed current from the third terminal, or an out feed to the terminal, differences in line lengths and
source impedances [1]. Much work is done considering two terminal lines with less attention on
three terminal lines. High frequency travelling wave information contained in the post-fault voltage
and current signals are used for the protection of three terminal lines[2]. The main problems in this
method are, it requires high sampling rates and difficulties in distinguishing travelling waves from

fault and from remote end of the line. In direction comparison method, the polarity of the fault
generated transient current signals is detected at each end of the circuit and sent to line remote ends
through communication channels[3]. Fault location algorithm for locating unbalanced faults based on
negative sequence quantities from all line terminals for two or three terminals is presented [4]. There
are a number of protection schemes for multi-terminal transmission circuits such as unit and non-unit
schemes. The unit schemes require extensive communication channels between the line ends [5].The
non-unit schemes such as distance protection, experience under-reach and over-reach problems [6].
Brahma and Girgis proposed a fault location scheme for a multi-terminal transmission line using
synchronized voltage measurements at all terminals [7]. If there is a variation in system conditions
and faults involving high arc resistances, the scheme’s effectiveness decreases. Different directional
comparison techniques for multi-terminal lines, which compare the polarity of fault generated
transient current signals are proposed by various researchers [8].
Differential protection scheme for tapped transmission lines has been proposed by B.Bhalija
and R.P.Maheswari where out feed current in case of internal and external faults was considered [9].
Al-Fakhri proposed differential protection scheme for multi-terminal lines using incremental currents
[10].
Villamagna and Crossley presented a current differential protection scheme for high
resistance faults, based on the symmetrical component based current quantities. The accuracy and
effectiveness cannot be guaranteed for the protection of multi-terminal lines [11].
Nagasawa et al used current differentials at terminals to reduce multi-terminals lines to a two-
terminal line. This reduction procedure was very complicated [12]. Funabashi et al utilized
synchronized current inputs from all terminals and developed two different methods to locate the
fault[13]. It failed to report results for three-phase and two-phase to ground faults. Prarthana
Warlyani et al used voltage and current signals of each section of teed circuit to detect and classify
L-L-G faults and the detection was in one cycle [14]. There must be some innovative methods to be
developed for three terminal transmission line protection. In this paper, wavelet multi-resolution
analysis is used for detection and classification of faults on three-terminal transmission circuit. Detail
D1 coefficients of current signals at all the three ends are used to detect and classify the faults. The
current signals are analyzed taking into consideration that sum of the current coefficients at all the
three terminals.
2. WAVELET ANALYSIS
Wavelet Transform (WT) is an efficient means of analyzing transient currents and voltages.
Unlike DFT, WT not only analyses the signal in frequency bands but also provides non-uniform
division of frequency domain i.e. WT uses short window at high frequencies and long window at low
frequencies .This helps to analyze the signal in both frequency and time domains effectively. A set of
basis functions called wavelets, are used to decompose the signal in various frequency bands, which
are obtained from a mother wavelet by dilation and translation Hence the amplitude and incidence of
each frequency can be found precisely. Wavelet Transform is defined as a sequence of a function
h(n)(low pass filter) and g(n) (high pass filter). The scaling function ⱷ(t) and wavelet Ψ(t) are
defined by the following equations.
ⱷ(t) = √2Σh(n) ⱷ(2t-n),
Ψ(t) = √2Σg(n) ⱷ(2t-n)
where g(n) = (-1) n h(1-n). A sequence of h(n) defines a Wavelet Transform. There are
many types of wavelets such as Haar, Daubachies, Symlet etc. The selection of mother wavelet is
based on the type of application. In the following section a novel method of discrimination of faults
using Multi Resolution Analysis of the transient currents associated with the fault is discussed.

along the paths of Terminal 1 to Terminal 2, Terminal 2 to Terminal 3 and from Terminal 3 to
Terminal 1. For the types of fault at a particular location, the fault inception angle is varied to

evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme. Influence of fault resistance also being considered
with value of 5ohms.The three phase currents at all the three terminals are analyzed with Bior 1.5
mother wavelet to obtain the detail coefficients D1 over a moving window of half cycle length.
These D1 coefficients are then transmitted to the remote end.
The performance of the scheme in discriminating the. line-to-line, double-line-to ground is
evaluated. The fault inception angle is varied from 150
to 1800 for the faults. The simulations show
that the fault inception angle has a considerable effect on the phase current samples and therefore on
Wavelet Transform output of post-fault signals.

In all the cases above, the detection of l-l and l-l-g faults is performed with consideration of
threshold value where the healthy phase lies below the threshold value and faulty phases lie above
the threshold value which clearly indicate the type of faults and the discrimination is done by
considering the variations in the fault index value of healthy phase for the double line faults
involving the ground and constant value in the case of double line faults without involvement of the
ground.
6. CONCLUSIONS
The wavelet based double line and double line to ground faults discrimination is done by
considering the variations in distance and fault inception angles along the paths from terminal to
terminal which clearly gives the variations in healthy phase and shows promise in discrimination of
faults and can be applied to discriminate l-l-l faults from l-l-l-g faults within less than half cycle.
