High-impedance fault location using matching technique and wavelet transform for underground cable distribution network

Locating the faulty section of a high-impedance fault (HIF) is quite challenging for the underground distribution network of a power system. The complexity of the distribution network, such as branches, nonhomogenous lines, and HIF, contributes to the difficulties in locating the faulty section. In...
