ABSTRACT:
A selected point in an electric power system is monitored for subsequent fault analysis. The voltage and current at the point is continuously sampled with samples for a predetermined period of time being temporarily stored in memory. In response to a Fault Event, voltage and current samples at differing sample rates and for differing periods of time are recorded. Voltage and current samples after a Cold Load Pickup are recorded, also the recorded samples allow later analysis of the fault and identification of the cause of the fault.
