This paper demonstrates a enhanced FCM to identify the causes of ground faults in power distribution systems. The discrimination scheme which can automatically recognize the fault causes is proposed using Fuzzy RBF networks. By using the actual fault data, it is shown that the proposed method provides satisfactory results for identifying the fault causes.

Most accidents occurred in power receiving & transforming facility are ground fault. The quality of power supply is deteriorated since the ground fault is not detected promptly. This paper analyzes the problems about system-grounding type of 2 step power receiving & transforming facility, arrangement of protection relaying scheme and ground-fault protection system of ungrounded system. Then, this paper presents the arranging scheme of system-grounding type to improve power supply reliability.

This paper proposes a new fault isolation methodology for a smart protective device which plays an agent role on the smart grid distribution system with the distributed generation. It, by itself, determines accurately whether its protection zone is fault or not, identifies the fault zone and separates the fault zone through the exchange of fault information such as the current information and the voltage information with other protective devices using bi-directional communication capabilities on the smart grid distribution system. The heuristic rules are obtained from the structure and electrical characteristics determined according to the location of the fault and DG (Distributed Generation) when faults such as single-phase ground fault, phase-to-phase short fault and three-phase short fault occur on the smart grid distribution system with DG.

In this paper, the fault line selection and location problems of single line-to-ground (SLG) fault in distribution network are addressed. Firstly, the adaptive filtering property for empirical mode decomposition is formulated. Then in view of the different characteristics showed by the intrinsic mode functions(IMF) under different fault inception angles obtained by empirical mode decomposition, the sign of peak value about the low-frequency IMF and the capacitance transient energy is chosen as the fault line selection criteria according to the different proportion occupied by the low-frequency components. Finally, the fault location is determined based upon the comparison result with adjacent fault passage indicators' (FPI) waveform on the strength of the interaction between the distribution terminal unit(DTU) and the FPI. Moreover, the logic nodes regarding to fault line selection and location are newly expanded according to IEC61850, which also provides reference to acquaint the DTU or FPI's function and monitoring. The simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed fault line selection and location methods.

This paper proposes the improved fault decision algorithm using DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform) and ANNs for the FRTU(Feeder Remote Terminal Unit) on the feeder in the power distribution system. Generally, the FRTU has the fault decision scheme detecting the phase fault, the ground fault. Especially FRTU has the function for 2000ms. This function doesn't operate FI(Fault Indicator) for the Inrush current generated in switching time. But it has a defect making it impossible for the FI to be operated from the real fault current in inrush restraint time. In such a case, we can not find the fault zone from FI information. Accordingly, the improved fault recognition algorithm is needed to solve this problem. The DWT analysis gives the frequency and time-scale information. The neural network system as a fault recognition was trained to distinguish the inrush current from the fault status by a gradient descent method. In this paper, fault recognition algorithm is improved by using voltage monitoring system, DWT and neural network. All of the data were measured in actual 22.9kV power distribution system.

비접지 배전계통에서 전체고장의 약 70%를 차지하는 지락고장 발생시에는 지락전류가 작아 검출이 어렵지만 고장상태로 전원 공급을 지속할 경우 사고 파급 및 기기 소손을 유발할 가능성이 있기 때문에 지락고장 처리는 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 GPT(접지형 계기용 변압기, Ground Potential Transformer)에서 감지하는 영상전압 신호를 이용하여 고장선로를 검출하고, 비상시 연계선로를 이용하여 정전구역을 복구하기 위해 평상시 개폐기가 열려 있는 상태로 배전선로 사이를 연결하는 상시개방점을 이동하며 각 구간을 차례로 분리하면서 GPT 신호의 사라짐 여부를 감시하여 고장구간을 검출하는 방법을 제안한다. 고장구간 탐색 시 전체 정전이 없고, 고장구간 검출과 건전구간 복구가 동시에 가능하며 다양한 형태의 배전계통 구성에 적용 가능하다는 점에서 효율적이다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 고장처리 방법을 프로그램으로 개발하여 베트남 배전자동화 시범사업에 적용함으로써 알고리즘 및 프로그램의 적정성을 검증하였다.

This study is carried out using a circuit model approach. First, the self and shunt impedances of all the conductors in the rail system and the mutual impedances between different conductors are computed. Then, a circuit representing the both rail systems at interfaces including the rails, feeders, protection wires, contact wires, ground wires is built. Auto-transformers in the system are also represented in the circuit model. The circuit model is then 1]recessed using a circuit solver based on a double-elimination method. Several different scenarios are analyzed, including the load conditions and a few fault conditions with different fault locations. The effect of the buried ground wires is also analyzed by comparing the results with and without the presence of the ground wires. The analysis procedure presented in the paper demonstrated an accurate way of computing fault current distribution and EMC at interfaces between both systems. The results presented in the paper can be used as a reference for estimating interference levels in similar rail systems.

In this paper, zero sequence equivalent circuit of Yg-Yg three phase core-type transformer is analyzed. Many problems by iron core structure of the three phase transformer due to asymmetric three phase lines, which includes line disconnection, ground fault, COS OFF, and unbalanced load are reported in the distribution system. To verify a feasibility of zero sequence impedance of Yg-Yg type three phase transformer, fault current generation in the three phase core and shell-type Yg-Yg transformer is compared by PSCAD/EMTDC when single line ground fault is occurred. As a result, shell-type transformer does not affect the flow of fault current, but core-type transformer generate an adverse effect by the zero sequence impedance. The adverse effect is explained by the zero sequence equivalent circuit of core-type transformer and Yg-Yg type three phase core-type transformer supplies a zero sequence fault current to the distribution system.

This paper presents a fault location algorithm for single-phase-to-ground faults on the teed circuit of a parallel transmission line. This algorithm uses only local end voltage and current information. Remote end and fault currents are calculated by using distribution factors. To reduce load current effect, negative sequence current is used. EMTP simulation result have shown effectiveness of the algorithm under various conditions.
