Abstract:

For the situations of complicated and multiple faults with missing and/or false alarms, it is still a challenging task to develop an accurate approach for fault diagnosis of high-voltage (HV) lines and operating behavior evaluation of protective devices. Given this background, this paper presents a rule-network based approach for this purpose by employing fault recorder data. Firstly, the fault recorder data are pre-processed by using the well-developed wavelet transform to extract the fault characteristics of HV lines from analogue electrical information, and the events of sudden current change and protection action are obtained. On this basis, we construct a rule-network based model for fault diagnosis of HV lines with considering the temporal characteristics of alarm messages, determine the sets of fault hypotheses as well as the expected states of protective relays and circuit breaker, and determine the fault cause and evaluate the performance of protection and circuit breaker with using the causal and temporal relationships between them. In addition, we further analyze the fault recorder to determine the type, characteristics and location of fault. Finally, we adopt actual power system fault cases to demonstrate the proposed method.
