Reliability Distributed generation Better customer service
§ Grid Automation increases distribution network reliability byproviding fast fault location, isolation and restoration.
§ Grid Automation enables integration of distributed energyresources.
§ Grid Automation provides accurate information for outagemanagement and thus enables better services for endcustomers

IntroductionTypes of faults – Overhead lines
§ Conductors clashing in the wind
§ Tree branches falling on overhead conductors
§ Animals or birds getting curious
§ Careless motor vehicle drivers
§ Lightning strikes
§ Operating errors: leaving earths connected etc.
Some faults are permanent:
ð An “auto-reclose” cycle should clear the fault
ð “lock-out” of the section to repair it
Some faults are temporary:
