art system the voltage level drops at nodes 6 310 through 8 315 in contrast with the fault location identification system of the present invention when a fault occurs at node 6 310 the voltage level at node 7 320 through 8 315 is maintained by the controllable voltage source converters of the distributed resources at these nodes as such the voltage profile for a distributed resource system utilizing the fault location identification system of the present invention clearly indicates the fault at node 6 310 in the system of the present invention whereas the fault is not clearly identified in the prior art system fig5 is a schematic illustrating an exemplary embodiment of the present invention that was used to generate the graphs shown in fig2 4 the physical distance between two adjacent distributed resource nodes will also determine if the faulty node can be located accurately to get an accurate voltage profile for a power distribution system it is necessary to measure the voltage at multiple nodes in the system however making measurements at the nodes is difficult in the prior art systems because there are limited nodes at which a voltage measurement can be performed in contrast in the fault location identification system of the present invention which includes a plurality of distributed resources and a controllable voltage source converter associated with each of the distributed resources each controllable voltage source converters can serve as a measurement unit at which voltage measurement can be performed and used to generate an accurate voltage profile as shown.
