Abstract

A live line measurement method for the zero sequence parameters of transmission lines with mutual inductance is introduced. The mathematical models of the measurement method are given. Global Positioning System (GPS) is used as the synchronous signal for the measurement carried out at different substations simultaneously. The measurement system and digital simulation results are given. Finally, the live line measurement results of two 220 kV transmission lines with mutual inductance in Hainangrid are given. Results from both simulation and on-site measurement show that the live line measurement method is feasible, and its measurement accuracy can satisfactorily meet the requirements of engineering measurement.
