Through analyzing difficulties in implementing the overhead line feeder automation， an implementation scheme for the quasi-real-time line feeder automation of voltage-current mode is presented from the viewpoint of practicality. The scheme can identify feeder fault by detecting the fault current and thus avoid unreliability rendered by the time delay matching and residual voltage when locating the fault by use of voltage signal. Taking advantage of the alternate current operation mechanism， the scheme improves the running and operating reliability of outdoor switches. Moreover， the scheme reaches the flexible construction of the communication network for distribution network based on the GPRS/CDMA wireless communication as well as the quasi-real-time information transmission for the fault signal.
