In Peru, at the present time are installing in the main
lines of the system, digital fault recorders and digital
relays that have the function of oscillographic fault
record, with the purpose of identifying the origin of the
fault , to verify the performance of the protective
equipment, to locate the fault point and to take decisions
in real time.
