An Initial Exploration of Spatial Spreading of Cascading Failure in an Electric Power System
نویسندگان
چکیده
Large blackouts typically involve the cascading outage of transmission lines. However, little is known about the overall patterns of cascading outages. This research processes and initially examines observed utility data to explore the spatial spreading of cascading failure. The utility data is combined from two different sources, one year of recorded transmission line outages and a description of the grid connections. This requires extensive work relating different descriptions of the same grid. An initial analysis of the statistics of the spreading is presented, and the potential and implications of a new statistical approach to cascade spreading is assessed.

Abstract: Blackouts are among the main threats to the security of electric power systems. Cascading failures are known as the most important agent for creating blackouts. Transmission lines are the basic equipment of power networks that their outage can make subsequent cascading outages. In this paper, based on the application of decision tree a new approach is proposed for online identificatio...
