Abstract :
This work presents a methodology for fault diagnosis and localization in a medium voltage distribution network using the ranges of variation of some electrical features measured at some check point. The authors examine in particular problems related to the noncorrespondence between theoretical quantities and real quantities present in the network depending on the degree of precision of the theoretical model.
