ABSTRACT:
A method and a device for directional detection of a fault on a power transmission line extending between two stations (P, Q). In one of the stations (P) there is a travelling wave model which, by means of currents and voltages measured in the station, calculates the voltage distirbution along the line. The direction to a fault is determined by monitoring changes in calculated voltages in the two stations. If a fault occurs between the stations, the voltage change occurring in a station (Q) between the voltage existing prior to a fault and after a fault can be estimated as .vertline..DELTA.Uq.vertline., and the corresponding voltage change occurring in the other station (P) can be estimated as .vertline..DELTA.Up.vertline., whereby according to the invention the difference .vertline..DELTA.Uq.vertline.-.vertline..DELTA.Up.vertline.>0 signifies a fault on the line side of the station (P), i.e. a fault lying ahead of the measuring point. A fault lying behind station P is evidenced when .vertline..DELTA.Uq.vertline.-.vertline..DELTA.Up.vertline.<0.
