| Abstract | Two distribution feeders, each with one or more midline overcurrent protective devices, can be tied together through a normally-open tie point to restore service to unfaulted sections of line, creating a ldquoloopedrdquo distribution system. This practice provides an alternate source of supply and reduces the impact of faults, thereby improving electric service reliability.Conventional looped distribution systems rely on overcurrent coordination to ensure that the correct device in a loop clears a particular fault. However, properly coordinating a large number of devices in series has practical limitations. This paper outlines a new technology - referred to as pulse closing - that enhances the conventional loop system concept by testing the line for a fault without actually reclosing into the fault. This reduces thermal and mechanical stresses on substation transformers and other power system equipment by eliminating the repeated occurrence of high-magnitude fault currents. Pulseclosing can be used to expand a distribution loop into an almost unlimited number of series overcurrent protective devices by overcoming the coordination constraint since faults are detected without using Time-current characteristic (TCC) curves. Maximum system restoration will be achieved within seconds of the initial fault detection. These advancements are all achieved without requiring communication between devices. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
