If the imaginary part of K
then inserted to equation 74. According to equation 74, the relative distance to the fault
is solved as the root of a quadratic equation.
Equation 74 gives two different values for the relative distance to the fault as a solution.
A simplified load compensated algorithm, that gives an unequivocal figure for the rel-
ative distance to the fault, is used to establish the value that should be selected.
If the load compensated algorithms according to the above do not give a reliable solu-
tion, a less accurate, non-compensated impedance model is used to calculate the relative
distance to the fault.
