Resumo

Half-wavelength transmission line protection is a challenge that hinders the implementation of this technology. However, this line is considered an interesting alternative to transmit bulk power blocks over very long distances and to connect wind and photovoltaic generation to an electrical power system. This study introduces a method to protect a half-wavelength transmission line. The proposed complex plane-based protection algorithm uses a differential complex power in the sequence domain to detect faults along the entire line. The embedded spark-gap mitigation device is properly considered because it is a necessary apparatus to remove severe resonant fault conditions. A time-domain analysis shows that the proposed algorithm achieves robust performance for both internal and external faults. (AU)
