This paper investigates how the accuracy of fault location estimated from a transmission line's natural frequencies is affected by imperfect modeling of HVDC power-converter stations. These systems include a large number of devices each with specific frequency-dependent characteristics, as filters, reactors and surge protection systems. While it is well-known that location errors may ensue from inaccurate termination models, it is not clear to what extent location accuracy is affected when neglecting one or more of these devices. Results show significant differences depending on the kind of transmission line and the reactor inductance. Including reactors is found not to completely avoid errors, proving the need to take into account the reactive behavior of the converter, which strongly varies according to the HVDC technology. A notable source of errors is level repulsion between station and line resonances, a phenomenon observed when the converter station presents self resonances, e.g., due to DC filters and stray capacitances in reactors. Significant loss of sensitivity to the fault position is found in these cases, impairing fault-location resolution. The first, or dominant, natural frequency of the line is more strongly affected by all these phenomena, suggesting that the standard choice of using the dominant resonance may not be an optimal strategy. Higher-order resonances are instead found to be more robust against inaccurate converter models, and appear to be more suitable for accurate fault location in case of uncertainties about the converter model.
