Abstract:In China,35 kV power grid directly supplies to large customers,because of the complexity of the customers and the inadequate protection measures,there often occurs phase - to - phase faults which lead to the equipment damage. Taking the phase - to - phase faults which occurred in 35 kV side of a 110 kV substation in Sichuan power grid for 4 times as an object, the phenomenon of each fault is analyzed in detail,the causes of the failure are pointed out,and a treatment plan is proposed to avoid the repeated failures. The conclusion is of great importance to the prevention of 35 kV phase - to - phase faults.
