Intelligent Fault Identification System for Transmission Lines  Using Artificial Neural Network

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 1

Abstract

 Transmission and distribution lines are vital links between generating units and consumers. They are exposed to atmosphere, hence chances of occurrence of fault in transmission line is very high, which has to be  immediately taken care of in order to minimize damage caused by it. This paper focuses on detecting the faults  on electric power transmission lines using artificial neural networks. A feed forward neural network is employed, which is trained with back propagation algorithm. Analysis on neural networks with varying number  of hidden layers and neurons per hidden layer has been provided to validate the choice of the neural networks  in each step. The developed neural network is capable of detecting single line to ground and double line to  ground for all the three phases. Simulation is done using MATLAB Simulink to demonstrate that artificial  neural network based method are efficient in detecting faults on transmission lines and achieve satisfactory  performances. A 300km, 25kv transmission line is used to validate the proposed fault detection system.  Hardware implementation of neural network is done on TMS320C6713.
