Abstract. This paper introduces a comparative study for fault detection and classification on parallel transmission line using cascade forward and feed forward back propagation.

The coefficients were inputs for training of neural network back-propagation (BPNN). The results showed that the feed forward back propagation algorithm of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models responded better than Cascade forward back propagation algorithm models, particularly in fault detection and classification on parallel transmission. The results showed that the proposed method for fault analysis was able to classify all the faults on the parallel transmission line rapidly and correctly.

Introduction

Power transmission line is an essential element in power system as it can dispatch electrical energy from one place to another. However, faults are often occurred on the transmission lines due to the interferences. Moreover, short circuit at the transmission line that connected to the wind turbine for example, could damage the wind turbine generator and its power electronics device [1]. Therefore, a quick and accurate analysis is necessarily required to detect and classify the transmission lines faults to guarantee the high reliability of the power system. a parallel transmission line needs more special consideration in comparison with the single transmission line, due to the effect of mutual coupling on the parallel transmission line including a parallel transmission line that is connected with wind turbine [2]. The most advantage of the parallel transmission compared to the single line is the probability of parallel system to transmit power continuously during and after fault is better than the single line.

This paper proposed a discrete wavelet transform and back-propagation neural network using the Clarke’s transformation to detect and classify the faults on the parallel transmission line. This study proposes a new method called alpha-beta transformation that is based on the Clarke’s transformation; which is a transformation of a three-phase system into a two-phase system [3-6]. Clarke’s transformation result is then transformed into discrete wavelets transform.

Wavelet transforms have been applied in several applications of in power systems; for example on partial discharge, power system protection, power system transients, condition monitoring and transformer protection. Among aforementioned above, the power system protection become the major application area of wavelet transform in power systems [7], while the Artificial Neural Network has been widely used in power system protection [8]. In this study, a novel approach is proposed for some reliable fault detection, classification, and location. The proposed approach applied based on ANN scheme. Various types of faults were applied for classification of the faults and location [9]. There are some papers recently discussed the hybrid application of wavelet and ANN that have been applied on the variety of power system planning and power quality disturbances [10-13], estimating fault location [16], classification using Oscillographic data [14, 15], control system and state estimation [16, 17].

This study introduces a new approach for classifying faults in transmission lines using discrete wavelet transform and back-propagation neural network. The main idea of the approach is to employ wavelet coefficient detail and the wavelet energy coefficient of the currents as the input patterns to generate a simple multi-layer perception network (MLP). In addition, this study proposes the development of a new decision algorithm to be used in the protective relay for fault classification and detection. To validate this method, the applied faults were simulated using EMTDC / PSCAD software package [18]. Moreover, to obtain the significant of the study, the results of the proposed method were compared with and without wavelet transform based Clarke transformation.

Research Methodology

In this section Figure 1 shows the procedure of main steps for fault detection on transmission line using DWT and BPPN based on Clarke’s transform it also shows some tools like PSCAD/EMTDC, wavelet transform (WT) and back propagation neural network (BPNN) is used to detect and classify the faults.

Fig. 1. Flow chart for the proposed methodology

The design process of the proposed fault detection and classification algorithm for transmission line goes through the following steps:

1) Finding the input to the Clarke’s transformation and wavelet transform. The signal flow of PSCAD is then converted into m. Files (*. M)
2) Determining the data stream interference, where the signal is transformed by using the Clarke’s transformation to convert the transient signals into the signal’s basic current (Mode).

.

3) Input signals are analyzed by DWT for extracting the information of the transient signal in the time and the frequency domain [19].
4) Selection of a suitable BPNN topology & structure for a given application.
5) Training of BPNN and validation of the trained BPNN to check its correctness in generalization.

Results and Discussion

In this study, the system under study is consisted of two identical transmission lines of 200 Km length which both end side are connected to Bus A and Bus B respectively. Each bus is connected to identical generator. The system was built on a 230 kV, conducted and simulated using PSCAD/EMTD. The system under study is shown in Fig. 2. In this study faults are applied at 0.22s and last for 0.15s and system under study parameters are provided in Table 1.

After calculating the parameters, the training sample of the detail coefficients wavelet of S0,Sα, Sβ, Sγ, Q0, Qα, Qβ, Qγ and wavelet energy of E0 , Eα, Eβ and Eγ for various types of faults were set as input variables to create neural network. The data sets were generated by considering different operating conditions, for examples, the different values of initiation angles ranging between 0 and 180 degrees, different values of fault resistances are set between 0 and 200 ohm and different fault distances from 0 to 200 km. The fault types are AG, BG, CG, ABG, BCG, ACG, AB, BC, AC, and ABC, where fault locations for training and testing are assumed occurs at 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150 and 175 km. For training and testing of Fault Resistance (Rf) are determined as: 0.001,25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175 and 200 ohm, whilst Fault Inception Angle for training and testing are set at: 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 degrees. From the simulation results, it can be stated that the proposed DWT and BPNN were able to accurately distinguish among the ten possible categories of faults. The truth table representing the faults and the ideal output for each of the faults is illustrated in Table 2.

WTC and WEC Based Fault Classification and Detection

DWT is one of mathematical tools that can be used to detect fault. In this approach, each of the derived current fault signals was decomposed into its constituent wavelet sub-bands or levels by the mother wavelet (Db4). The 4 levels of frequency bands are mentioned as dl, d2, d3 and d4. The high frequency components will be increased from d4 to d1. The wavelet coefficients detail of the currents was filtered using Clarke transformation, as exhibit in Fig. 3, while Fig. 4 shows the filtering response without using Clarke transformation. By applying aforementioned rules above, the first and last faulted samples were found at 105 respectively, for a sampling frequency of 200 kHz.

From the sum of square of detailed WTC, we can obtain the WEC [25]. The wavelet energy coefficient varies over different scales depending on the input signals. Wavelet energy coefficients E0 , Eα, Eβ and Eγ correspond to the sum of the four levels of wavelet energy coefficients of mode currents I0 , Iα, Iβ and Iγ with Clarke’s transformation, as exhibits in Table 3, while E0 , Ea, Eb and Ec correspond to the sum of the four levels of wavelet energy coefficients of line currents I0 , Ia, Ib and Ic without Clarke’s transformation as can be seen in Table 4.

After calculating the parameters, the training sample of the detail coefficients wavelet various parameters of S0,Sα, Sβ, Sγ, Q0, Qα, Qβ, Qγ and wavelet energy of E0 , Eα, Eβ and Eγ for various types of faults were set as input variables to create neural network. The data sets were generated by considering different operating conditions, for instant, the different values of inception angles ranging between 0 and 180 degrees, different values of fault resistances between 0 and 200 ohm and different fault distances from 0 to 200 km. Discreet combination (A-B-C-G) of faults classification obtained by defining 1 for the value more than 0.6 and 0 for the value less than 0.4. The simulation results are shown in Table 3.

Percentage of MSE Validity obtains about 4.159 % and MAE obtains about 2.877 % compare to without preprocessing Clarke’s transformation and plotting of the best linear regression that relates the targets to the outputs are shown in Fig.5 and Fig. 6.

Results of using DWT and Cascade Forward Back Propagation Network (CPBPPN)

Similar to the feed Forward Back propagation Network, the parameters of the training of the detail coefficients of wavelet has various parameters, namely S0,Sα, Sβ, Sγ, Q0, Qα, Qβ, Qγ and wavelet energy E0 , Eα, Eβ and Eγ for various types of faults were set as input variables of the neural network. The data sets were generated by considering the different operating conditions, for example, the different values of inception angles are ranging between 0 and 180 degrees, different values of fault resistances are varied between 0 and 200 ohm and different fault distances take places from 0 to 200 km. Discreet combination (A-BC- G) of faults classification obtained by defining 1 for the value more than 0.6 and 0 for the value less than 0.4.

The results of DWT and BPNN training without Clarke’s transformation, it found that MSE is 0.073929 and MAE is 0.1421057. Meanwhile, with Clarke’s transformation, where the MSE is found to be 0.062201 and MAE is 0.129653, Percentage of MSE Validity achieves about 15.863 % and MAE for about 8.763 % compare to without preprocessing Clarke’s transformation. The plotting of the best linear regression that relates the targets to the outputs are shown in Fig. 7 and Fig.8. The simulation results for various neural network combination / architecture were presented in Table 5. The feed forward back propagation network shows better performance with the MSE and MAE have lesser error compared to the performance of Cascade forward back propagation network. It is shown that the MSE and MAE of FFBPPN have a smaller value than CPBPPN. By adopting Clarke’s transformation, it was yielded that MSE and MAE have smaller value compared to the network without Clarke’s transformation on FFBPPN and CPBPPN. Among all the architectures, the best architect was 12-24- 48-4.

Conclusion

This approach applies Daubechies4 (db4) as a mother wavelet. Various circumstances have been investigated, including variation on distance, fault resistance and the initial angle.This study also compare the results of training BPPN and DWT with and without Clarke’s transformation, where the results exhibits that using the Clarke’s transformation in training will create smaller MSE and MAE, compared to training without Clarke’s transformation. Among the three structures, the best architects result is 12-24-48-4.
