Abstract

 This paper is devoted to the extension of the existing three phase technique for a generalized treatment of shunt faults in multi-phase systems. The expressions derived in this paper for fault currents and voltages are applicable to any phase order, fault type and combination of faults and can account for the fault impedance/admittance. Several illustrative calculations are presented to demonstrate the validity of expressions derived and to derive important informations regarding performance of multi-phase transmission systems,
