The paper presented here is aimed at proposing a generalised strategy for easily implementing a fault locator in real power distribution systems. The strategy is based on the definition of a fault location method and its successive application along section lines from a power substation to the section where the fault has been determined. According to the results, the proposed strategy seems to be applicable to real power systems as an alternative for reducing fault location time and thus keeping good continuity indexes.
En este artículo se propone una estrategia generalizada para fácilmente implementar un localizador de fallas en sistemas reales de distribución de energía eléctrica. La estrategia se fundamenta en la definición de un método de localización de fallas y su sucesiva aplicación a lo largo de las secciones de línea desde la subestación hasta donde se determine la localización de la falla. De acuerdo con los resultados, la estrategia propuesta es aplicable en sistemas de potencia reales como una alternativa para reducir el tiempo de localización de fallas y en consecuencia para mantener buenos índices de continuidad.
