This paper deals with two objectives, the first objective focuses on finding out the location of fault occurred in any phase in the underground cable system (Clegg in Underground cable fault location. McGraw-Hill, New York, 1993) using the basic principle of Ohm’s Law. The second objective basically focussed on making a programmed counter to count the number of faults, respectively, occurring in each phase during the life span of the underground cable so that damaged cable can be replaced with a new cable of same length and characteristics after reaching the limit of predefined number of faults. For this, the concept of software counting operation (Mellor-Crummey and LeBlanc in A software instruction counter. University of Rochester, Rochester, NY, 14627) is applied on the occurrence of a short circuit fault event in any phase of the underground cable by using counter programming. For this paper, the basic …
