the aim of this paper is to extend a hybrid protection plan for power transformer (pt) based on mra-ksir-ssvm. this paper offers a new scheme for protection of power transformers to distinguish internal faults from inrush currents. some significant characteristics of differential currents in the real pt operating circumstances are extracted. in this paper, multi resolution analysis (mra) is use...

Transformer protection is critical issue in power system as the issue lies in the accurate and rapid discrimination of magnetizing inrush current from internal fault current. Artificial neural network has been proposed and has demonstrated the capability of solving the transformer monitoring and fault detection problem using an inexpensive, reliable, and noninvasive procedure. This paper gives ...

Transient stability of a power system is concerned with the system’s ability to remain in synchronism after the disturbance is cleared. Occurrence of a fault in a power system causes transients. The disturbances subjected to the system may be occurrence of fault, sudden change in load etc. This paper describes the improvement of transient stability with phase shift insertion by phase shifting t...

The more sophisticated a protection algorithm, the more information on both steady-state and transient behavior of a protected element required for proper designing, setting and testing of a given relay. In the case of a power transformer, the most important phenomena to be modeled from the standpoint of protective relaying are: magnetizing inrush including initial, recovery and sympathetic inr...

Monitoring of winding faults is the most important item used to determine the maintenance status of a transformer. Commonly used methods for winding-fault diagnosis require the transformer to exit operation before testing and an external exciting signal, whether the transformer is malfunctioning or not. However, if an overvoltage signal can be regarded as a broadband excitation source for fault...

Transformers are essential and important elements of power systems. In the past few years, there has been an increasing concern about the occurrence of turn-to-turn faults in power transformers due to the high costs that unexpected outages cause. It is not always possible to analyze the transformer behavior under such faults under rated conditions, since the tests are largely destructive. There...

In this paper, an approach is proposed for accurate locating of single phase faults in transmission lines using voltage signals measured at one-end. In this method, harmonic components of the voltage signals are extracted through Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and are normalized by a transformation. The proposed fault locator, which is designed based on Random Forests (RF) algorithm, is train...

This paper describes vibration diagnosis based on electric faults. These faults could appear in electrical equipment in general, but this paper focuses on the case of transformer, induction and dc motor. In order to do the diagnosis there are analysed vibration signals from the piezoelectric accelerometer. This accelerometer is installed on the frame of the equipment. The signals acquired are a...

This article presents a novel technique to distinguish between magnetizing inrush current and internal fault current of power transformer. An algorithm has been developed around the theme of the conventional differential protection method in which parallel combination of Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN) and Power Differential Protection (PDP) methods have been used. Both PNN and PDP method ar...

Power transformers in transmission network are utilized for increasing or decreasing the voltage level. Power Transformers fail to connect directly to the consumers that result in the less load fluctuations. Power transformer operation under any abnormal condition decreases the lifetime of the transformer. Power Transformer protection from inrush and internal fault is critical issue in power sy...
