Short circuit is one of the most popular types permanent fault in power distribution system. Thus, fast and accuracy diagnosis short failure very important so that system works more effectively. In this paper, a newly enhanced support vector machine (SVM) classifier has been investigated to identify ten short-circuit types, including single line-to-ground faults (XG, YG, ZG), line-to-line (XY, ...

extension of inter-turn fault in windings of pmsm can damage all parts of electrical systems, and in some cases in sensitive applications may lead to irreparable events. identification of such small faults at incipient steps can be so helpful to protect entire part of electrical system. in this paper, intelligent protection system is designed which is made by two major parts. in the first part ...

As one of the solution of the increase problem of the fault current in a power system, the superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) has been noticed as the attractive device because it has no power loss in a normal time and can limit the fault current rapidly without additional device to detect the fault current. However, the introduction of the SFCL in a power distribution system affects t...

This paper presents a numerical study of the system unbalance and the fault impedance effect on faulted power system analysis. Two short circuit techniques, the symmetrical components and phase components algorithms are implemented and analyzed based on numerical simulations of the IEEE 13 bus test feeder. Test cases include voltage unbalance effect and fault impedance effect on during-fault vo...

Fault location finding in power system is very important problem in power system monitoring. Moreover, demand for high grid availability are crucial for TSO's contracts. Many scientific papers are published on mentioned theme, along with efforts in transmission and distribution system operators about improving fault location accuracy. Recently, signal processing methods like Wavelets and Hilber...

Modern spectral and harmonic analysis is based on Fourier transforms. However, these techniques are less efficient in tracking the signal dynamics for transient disturbances. Consequently, the wavelet transform has been introduced as an adaptable technique for non-stationary signal analysis. Although the application of wavelets in the area of power system engineering is still relatively new, it...
