Modelling of Electrical Cable Parameters and Fault Detection using Fourier Series

Abstract


The choice of a reliable and efficient cable has been of utmost concern to power Engineers and researchers for it enables an adequate energy supply. So many models have been considered to design either voltage or current and/or fault locations in cables. In this work, the focus is to model three-phase voltage and current as parameters of a high-voltage cable and to detect possible faults along its length with the aid of MATLAB /Simulink. The parameters of the cable-three-phase voltage and current are measured with their respective Fourier transformations. Equations parameters are determined using the Fourier transform. The system is then checked for the presence of fault and if yes, the type of fault is displayed. It is found that the presence of λ in the modelled voltage equation is significant because it represents how far the current travels along the length of the dendrite. The greater the rm, the membrane resistance, the more the current will remain inside the cytoplasm (internal fluids) of the dendrite to travel longitudinally. The more rL, or intracellular resistance, the harder it is for current to travel through the cytoplasm; hence the shorter the current can travel.
