Next, the operation of the device of the present invention will be described. The electro-optical converters 16A and 16B provided at the positions to be detected are respectively shown.
Is not driven because the abnormal current detector does not operate while the steady current is flowing through the transmission line. When an accident such as a ground fault accident occurs in the transmission line, an abnormal current detector at that position operates, and one of the electro-optical converters 16A and 16B at the corresponding position is driven. Optical signal Sa or Sb of a specific frequency according to the position
Is introduced into the optical fiber 12 through one of the optical combiners 14A and 14B. Accordingly, at the detection end of the optical fiber 12, the optical signal Sa or Sb is converted into an electrical signal by the optical-electrical converter 18, and the frequency of the electrical signal is determined by the frequency analyzer.
The location of the accident is detected by analysis by 20. The optical signals from the electro-optical converters 16A and 16B are converted into optical multiplexers 14A and 14B.
The converging ratio when merging at ---, as already mentioned,
The detection end of the optical fiber 12 is set so that the powers of all optical signals are equal. For example, for simplicity of explanation, the merging ratio of the first optical combiners 14A which joins the optical signal from the position P 1 and the position P 2 to 50:50, then a second confluence in the position P 3 Assuming that the converging ratio of the optical device 14B is 67:33, the power of the optical signals from all the positions P 1 , P 2 , and P 3 at the detection end of the optical fiber 12 is 33 assuming that the power of the original optical signal is 100. , So that all positions can be detected with the same sensitivity (SN ratio). On the other hand, for example, if the converging ratio of all the optical couplers is 50:50, the power of the optical signal from the positions P 1 and P 2 is 25, and the power of the optical signal from the position P 3 is 50.
And the sensitivity particularly at a distant position is reduced.
