Therefore, this paper deals with the voltage derivative ROCOV scheme to locate and detect DC faults. The algorithm is able to differentiate internal and external faults considerably fast. The proposed algorithm is analyzed in a HVDC grid with different fault case scenarios. Finally, the ROCOV protection thresholds are discussed. %@ 2172-038X %K DC fault %K Detection %K HVDC Grid %K Location %K ROCOV doi 10.24084/repqj17.336 %U http://hdl.handle.net/11556/750 %~ GOEDOC, SUB GOETTINGEN
