Fl-Tn: A Fault Location Algorithm Based On Tree Topology For Smart Grid

With the development of smart grid and the improvement of user requirement, it becomes a key problem needed to be resolved at present that how to locate the fault node quickly when failure occurs. However, the grid topology is very complex because of a variety of component types and connection forms. To locate the fault position as soon as possible and then ensure the speed of restoring electricity, in this paper, we creatively proposed a new fault location algorithm based on tree topology. This new algorithm can search multiple branches lines at the same time and improve the speed of fault location. The experiment result shows that this algorithm can achieve good effect.
