  • Abstract
    Improved analytical methods for assessing the effects of a ground fault on a transmission line are discussed. Both simplified and more complex calculation techniques are shown and compared with staged fault tests. The simple formula lends to calculator use whereas the complex calculation is geared for a computer.
