Technical Meeting

Title: Locating Faults in Power Systems: An Approach based on the Wavelet Transform of Travelling Waves
-
Presenter: Prof. Dr. Ali ABUR, IEEE Fellow, Department of Electrical Engineering, Texas A&M University, USA
- Tuesday, November 2, 2004 (time: 16-18, Faculty of Engineering, University of Bologna, viale Risorgimento 2, Bologna)
-
About the Topic: This seminar is concerned about fast and accurate location of power system faults. Fault location can be carried out fairly accurately provided that synchronized signals are available from the terminal buses of the faulted line. However, such measurements are not always available, especially at the lower voltage distribution systems, where the system configuration is essentially radial and measurements are typically taken at a single location at the beginning of the feeder. In such cases, most of the conventional methods fail to provide a solution due to the existence of multiple possible locations corresponding to the measured signals at the root of the feeder. In this presentation, an alternative approach will be described. The essential idea is to monitor the travelling waves initiated by the fault and use the information about network topology to infer the location of the fault. This is accomplished by identifying the arrival times of the travelling waves via the application of the discrete time wavelet transform to the modal components of the fault signals. Examples involving meshed, radial and T-connected power system topologies are given to demonstrate the proposed method. The method is shown to be insensitive to the existence of series capacitors, mutually coupled lines and the unknown value of the fault impedance.

About the Topic: Sustainability of electric power systems requires balancing the business across three areas: economic, social and environmental. This will have a profound impact on how power systems will be planned, built and operated in the future. In the evolving electricity supply industry environment, the challenges are to produce, transmit, and use energy in an environmentally friendly manner, to reduce costs by improving operating efficiency and business practices, and enhance the reliability and quality of power supply. In particular, there will be a greater need to address power system security issues and develop measures to prevent the occurrence of widespread blackouts. Research and development of new technologies will play a major role in shaping the future directions of power systems in this regard. This presentation will describe these changes affecting the electric power industry and identify new technologies that will influence the changes.
