Abstract

A Windows based graphical user interface (GUI) software tool to facilitate the teaching and learning of sequence networks is described in this paper. This software is written in Microsoft Visual Basic. The software provides a friendly and easy to use tool to aid the students in better visualizing the effects of the sequence diagram and sequence current in the fault study. This tool has three main modules: a user designed one-line diagram; displaying the corresponding positive-, negative-, and zero-sequence diagrams; and displaying the path of the current in each sequence diagram, according to the type and the location of the fault
