Abstract

Generally, the application of Programmable Logic Controller PLC is emphasized on the Process Control. This paper presents Neurofuzzy application, Which can estimate the distance to a fault by means of PLC and based up on the Electrical Power System theory and ground resistance. The case study refers to the distribution lines of the Provincial Electricity Authority (PEA). Also, the thesis is supposed to be of much benefit: saving time both to go to the scene and to clear fault, reducing unpleasant impacts on customers and stabilizing reliability of the distribution lines.
