Overhead transmission lines are influenced by different factors which are mostly electrical and mechanical. These factors can cause problems for lines, distortions in network and outage of line. In designing transmission lines mechanical properties are evaluated after selecting a suitable conductor and clearance with regard to electrical properties. In lines designing, an important mechanical p...

this paper illustrates the application of s-transform and continuous wavelet transform (cwt) for fault location in combined overhead line and cable distribution networks. the high frequency transient signals originated by faults are analyzed using s-transform and cwt. the s-transform is found to be applicable in transient based fault location in distribution networks. this technique is an expan...
