ABSTRACT:
A transient direction detector which indicates the occurrence of power line ransients and their direction of propagation. The system is comprised of current and voltage sensors, a logic and control circuit which receives the transient current and voltage sensed and provides an output to an indicator circuit to show the direction of any transients on a power line. The current sensing circuit receives an input from an induction coil on an iron clamp around a power line. The voltage sensing circuit receives its input from a voltage sampling transformer directly connected across a power line. The logic and control circuit determines where the transient occurred by comparing the polarity received from the transient current and voltage sensing circuits.
