Accurate time synchronization is essential for distributed systems. Conventional methods, such as satellite-based synchronization and communication-based approaches, face challenges including signal vulnerability and dependence on communication delay symmetry. This paper proposes a novel time synchronization principle based on traveling wave (TW) measurements in power grids. By leveraging the inherent symmetry of forward and backward TW propagation, the proposed method achieves high-precision time distribution without relying on external time references. The methodology is validated through electromagnetic transient simulations on a modified IEEE 14-bus system. The results demonstrate that under normal conditions, the proposed approach achieves microsecond-level synchronization accuracy. These findings suggest that the TW-based time synchronization principle is a potential alternative to traditional methods, offering improved security and reduced dependence on communication quality.
