Procedure (2)
1. Form positive, negative and zero sequence networks separately with the give n
values of the positive, negative and zero sequence impedances of different
components.
*Neglect the capacitance values for the distributed parameter line, as it is
very small
* Network reduction should not be done
2. Place simple series RLC branch from Simulink library to form the sequence
network
3. Interconnect the positive, negative and zero sequence networks at the fault point
*Between transmission line and load
4. Use formula Va =va0+va1+va2 and obtain fault voltage at phase A (=Va)
(va0- zero sequence voltage.,va1-positive sequence voltage,va2- negative sequence
voltage, at the fault point )
5. Obtain zero, positive and negative sequence voltages at fault point using voltage
measurement block and name them va0, va1and va2 accordingly.
6. Place Sum block from the Math library, connect the voltage signals va0, va1,
va2 and place a scope to get the output waveform
7. To obtain phase voltage at B and C at fault, use appropriate formulae.
8. To apply phase shifts for the voltage signal, use Transport delay block from the
Simulink library
Calculate Delay time for 120 0 at 50Hz as Delay time = 20e-3 X 120/360
9. Fault current (Ia) will be thrice the sequence current (ia0=ia1=ia2, for a single
phase to ground fault); therefore, a gain of 3 should be used to obtain the actual
current from sequence current (for a single phase to ground fault).
10. Obtain phase voltage at Phase A, B and C from the sequence network formed.
Compare the results obtained from that of the three-phase system simulated using
simPowersystem. Give your comments.
