Abstract

This paper presents a novel approach for on-line fault identification in an Electric Power Substation (EPS). The proposed methodology is based on signal processing techniques allied with a Fuzzy Logic and Artificial Neural Network. The test electric system was rigorously built in an electromagnetic transient numerical simulator, named Alternative Transient Program (ATP), conformably to the needs presented by a Thermoelectric Generation Plant of 711 MW - 230 kV, located in southern Brazil. Simulated test cases demonstrate the generalization capability of the developed hybrid Expert System based on Neural Networks and Fuzzy Logic, now utilized in a Southern Brazilian Utility.
