The paper presents an apparent impedance calculation procedure for distance relaying of transmission line involving FACTS devices, particularly the UPFC (unified power flow controller). The presence of UPFC significantly affects the trip boundaries which are also adversely affected by fault resistance combined with remote end infeed. Depending on the UPFC location, the trip boundary is influenc...
