Abstract

The distribution of voltage and current along the half-wavelength transmission line presents a non-linear fluctuation characteristic, which is quite different from those along the traditional ultra-high voltage (UHV) transmission line. In this paper, the influence factors of the voltage phase difference between two ends of the half-wavelength transmission line are analyzed. The characteristics of the voltage fault component phase difference between two ends of the line are studied when internal and external faults occur, a phase differential protection for half-wavelength transmission line is proposed.
