This document describes an experiment using MATLAB Simulink to model a power system network experiencing a single line to ground fault and analyze the fault using symmetrical components. The objectives are to create a Simulink model of the given network under fault conditions and determine the current and voltage waveforms, and then model the same network using symmetrical components to identify the type and location of the fault. Key steps include building positive, negative, and zero sequence networks, applying faults, measuring voltages and currents, and comparing the results to the original three-phase simulation. The goals are to understand why symmetrical components are used to analyze unsymmetrical faults and demonstrate their application in fault analysis.

Procedure (1)

Simulation of Single Phase to Ground Fa ult using Matlab Simulink

1. Open Simulink library browser from Matlab


2. From simulink library browser, create a new model from the file menu.
3. Select the simPowersystems toolbox from simulink library browser
4. Place Three phase inductive source (generator), distributed parameter line, 3-
ph RLC series branch and 3-phase fault in the workspace
5. Interconnect the Components to form the network as given in the fig (1)
6. Choose ground input and ground output appropriately.
7. Select three-phase inductive source (generator) and specify the parameters
Source voltage: 11kV, Frequency : 50Hz,
Source Impedance
Positive sequence : 1.0 + j 0.25,
Zero sequence : 0.001+j 0.05.
*Convert reactance to Inductance
8. Select Distributed parameters line as transmission line and specify the
parameters
Length : 10km
Impedance of line
*Positive sequence : 1+j0.1
Zero sequence : 1+j0.30
* Convert impedance to Inductance/kilometer and resistance/ kilometer
Apply a very minimal value for capacitance may be give n, so that it can be
neglected (approximately 0.00001)
9. Select Series RLC Branch as load and specify the parameters

Positive sequence: 3+j0.25


*Convert reactance to Inductance
10. Select Three phase fault block to form SLG fault and specify the parameters

Select phase A to ground fault


Fault time : 1 second.
Fault resistance : 0.01ohms
Ground resistance: 0.01ohms
The fault transition time shall be 1s and 5s.
11. Measurements blocks are connected suitably to show the current and voltage
waveforms
12. Setup the simulation time as 4seconds and obtain the waveforms of the fault
current and the phase to ground voltages.

Procedure (2)

Modeling and simulating the sequence network

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.
