In this paper, a fuzzy logic-based fault classification of transmission lines using Z & S type membership functions is proposed and classification is made on the basis of magnitudes positive sequence and zero sequence currents of lines during the faulty conditions.
Abstract
Since the overhead transmission lines are exposed to external faults and they ultimately disrupt the characteristics of system if not detected in defined span of time. Therefore, in order to maintain the stability and reliability of power system, it is necessary to detect the exact type of fault occurred. This research proposes a simplest fuzzy logic system to detect the type of fault on High Voltage (HVAC) 400 kV transmission lines supplied from both ends. In this paper, a fuzzy logic-based fault classification of transmission lines using Z & S type membership functions is proposed and classification is made on the basis of magnitudes positive sequence and zero sequence currents of lines during the faulty conditions. These membership functions divide the inputs into two ranges and thus making the fuzzy system digitized with low (0) and high (1) outcomes. The designed method is able to detect all types of faults i.e, three phases shorts, two phases shorts, two phase to ground, three phase to ground and single-phase to ground faults with better precision and accuracy. The suggested technique has better performance even in long transmission lines or if a fault occurs away from protection point and also for overloaded lines. The operating times for relays to isolate the fault are also calculated. The propositions are verified through fuzzy logic toolbox in MATLAB.
