Features: This book introduces the network structure characteristics of distribution systems and common switching equipment for overhead and cable systems. On this basis, it focuses on the automation technology for fault handling in distribution systems. This includes fault clearing at the moment of occurrence—protection technology, with an emphasis on network-based protection technology; fault isolation, load transfer, and power restoration after faults, with an emphasis on distributed intelligent technology; fault indication and localization after fault handling, with an emphasis on fault indicator technology, as well as the automatic fault localization system formed by integrating GSM short message communication technology and Geographic Information System (GIS) technology on this basis. The later part of the book introduces the automation devices and communication technologies involved in distribution automation systems, along with related equipment. This book can serve as a reference for technical personnel in power supply departments of power systems to understand and learn about automation technology for fault handling in distribution systems. It can also be used as a reference for technical personnel in relevant research departments of power systems for related research topics. Additionally, it can serve as a learning reference for undergraduate and graduate students in related fields at universities.
