Popis: The early fault of a cable is usually a incipient fault, which is difficult to find and can easily develop into an insulation breakdown fault. Thus, it is of great significance to quickly and accurately find an incipient cable fault. This paper presents an fault location method for cable insulation based on the electric quantities of both ends. Based on the equivalent circuit model of three-phase single-core cable distribution parameters, the calculation method of the voltage along the cable is derived. The equivalent model of cable insulation in resistive and capacitive parallel is proposed and applied to the early fault modeling of cable. On the basis of the calculation formula of the voltage along the cable and the electric quantity at both ends of the cable, the analytical expression of the cable fault location is obtained by solving the fault equation directly. Extensive simulations show that the algorithm, this method can locate the incipient fault accurately, and is not affected by the fault point, fault resistance and fault inception angle.
