Feeder-Level Ground Fault Localization in GFN-Compensated Distribution Networks: Harmonic Feature Engineering and Event-Level Evaluation on Utility Field Data
Identifying which distribution feeder carries a ground fault is a hard problem in networks compensated by a Ground Fault Neutralizer (GFN): the compensation that limits fault energy also suppresses the zero-sequence signatures that conventional protection relies on, so a fault on one feeder can de-energize an entire su...
